Blue Mountain Loans is the directory’s small-amounts specialist: first loans from $100 to $1,200 with 4–12-month terms. It publishes no numeric APR, but its $100 floor is the lowest entry point in the market — the brand for a $200-sized need that most lenders will not touch.

The short answer
Blue Mountain Loans is a tribal lender owned by Kashia Band of Pomo Indians of Stewarts Point Rancheria (CA). It serves most states outside a published exclusion list; its published exclusion list leaves both Carolinas serviceable — applications from NC and SC are accepted. Small principal does not mean small percentage: per-$100 fees on a $150 loan are proportionally the harshest in the market.

What Blue Mountain Loans offers
Installment loans. $100–$1,200 (first loan cap $1,200). 4–12 months.
The cost, with the math shown
No numeric APR published; "a very expensive form of borrowing"; disclosures in the loan agreement
Worked example at an illustrative 600% APR — Blue Mountain Loans publishes no APR, the agreement is the disclosure: a $300 loan repaid biweekly over 4 months runs about $81.86 per payment — $736.77 total of payments, of which $436.77 is finance charge. Check that total, not the payment, against your budget.
Where it operates — the Carolinas answer
Its published exclusion list leaves both Carolinas serviceable — applications from NC and SC are accepted.
Full published list: AR, CT, MA, MD, NY, IL, PA, VT, VA, DC, WV. Availability claims on marketing sites notwithstanding, the exclusion list is the only binding statement.
Disputes: Kashia Lending Commission.
Who it fits — and who should keep looking
Fits: Small gaps — $150–$400 — where a smaller loan genuinely fits, and where borrowing more would be the mistake.
Think twice: Small principal does not mean small percentage: per-$100 fees on a $150 loan are proportionally the harshest in the market. It serves both Carolinas.

Blue Mountain Loans FAQ
Does Blue Mountain Loans serve North Carolina and South Carolina?
Its published exclusion list leaves both Carolinas serviceable — applications from NC and SC are accepted.
How much does a Blue Mountain Loans loan cost?
Blue Mountain Loans publishes no APR — cost is disclosed only in the loan agreement. As a scale reference, $300 biweekly over 4 months at a market-typical 600% APR runs about $736.77 total. Demand the agreement’s payment table before signing.
Does Blue Mountain Loans check credit?
Like most tribal lenders it underwrites primarily on verifiable income and banking history rather than a FICO score; a hard pull at application is not part of the published process. The loan generally is not reported to the major credit bureaus either.
Can I pay off a Blue Mountain Loans loan early?
Early payoff terms are governed by the agreement; the tribal installment market norm is no prepayment penalty, but confirm the clause before signing.
