Military Lending
The Pioneer Services vision is to improve operational readiness through education and services that enhance quality of life and financial independence for military families. As part of this commitment, we offer personal unsecured loans to service members who have traditionally been underserved by banks and credit unions.
With loan products up to $10,000 for active-duty and career-retired military service members, as well as Department of Defense employees, service members can discover a disciplined way to manage their debt while meeting their cash needs.
To find out more, visit Pioneer Military Lending, or visit a Pioneer Services office for assistance. Most loan applications can be processed within a few hours, and all loan applicants receive our excellent customer service. Applicants should have a current copy of their LES to receive immediate service.
We are so confident in our products that we offer a 15 day, no-cost return policy. We encourage you to share the terms of your loan with your chain of command, your financial advisor, and even shop around to see if you can obtain a better deal. If you are dissatisfied for any reason with your military loan, simply return the funds within 15 days at no cost and with no penalty.

Help Loan
We understand that service members can find themselves in difficult financial situations. And many times, when you need a little extra cash to make ends meet or to pay for unexpected expenses, visiting a payday loan company may seem like your best option. However, with high fees and automatic rollover practices, payday loans can put service members into an endless debt cycle. We have developed a safe, low-cost alternative to payday loans—the Help Loan. The Help Loan is a short-term, non-renewable loan designed to meet immediate cash needs.
- One time loan of $500 (non-renewable, non-rollover)
- Four equal monthly payments of $131.31
- Total fees and interest $25.24
- Maximum APR of 24%
