Founded in 1984, QC Holdings, Inc. was a prominent provider of alternative financial services in the United States, operating a large network of retail stores under brands like Quik Cash (QC) and QC Financial Services. The company's primary services included payday loans, installment loans, title loans, and check cashing, targeting unbanked and underbanked consumers. In recent years, the company has faced significant regulatory scrutiny, particularly from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB), leading to substantial changes in its business model, the closure of numerous physical locations, and a halt to its lending activities in many states.
