What a Green Arrow Loans loan really costs

Green Arrow lends $200–$1,500 — first-timers capped at $300 — in bi-weekly installments, at roughly $15 per $100 borrowed. Its own website sample shows a $300 loan at 825% APR over nine bi-weekly installments; court filings allege actual loans at 804.09% and 844.98%. To its limited credit, Green Arrow permits no rollovers or renewals.

But complaints describe unauthorized recurring ACH withdrawals continuing after cancellation (one borrower reported seven withdrawals on a single $300 loan), loans deposited to unfamiliar out-of-state accounts via identity fraud, and aggressive collections — daily calls from blocked numbers and calls to employers, ignoring do-not-contact requests.

Where it's less bad
  • No rollovers, renewals or extensions permitted.
  • No prepayment penalty.
  • Next-business-day funding for weekday approvals.
What to watch
  • A sample $300 loan is quoted at 825% APR; filings allege 804–845%.
  • Unauthorized recurring ACH after cancellation, and identity-fraud loans, reported.
  • Aggressive collections — daily calls from blocked numbers, employer contact.
  • Six federal class actions since 2022.

Where Green Arrow Loans lends

Green Arrow says availability 'can change frequently' and does not publish a fixed list; it operates in roughly 33 states plus DC and several territories.

By its own terms, Green Arrow Loans does not lend to residents of:

Does Green Arrow Loans report to credit bureaus?

Green Arrow does not report to the three major bureaus and runs no hard credit pull, so a loan will not build credit. It verifies applicants through the alternative databases Clarity, DataX and CLVerify.

Who actually owns and runs Green Arrow Loans

Green Arrow is presented as 'wholly owned and operated by the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians' in Finley/Lakeport, California.

The class actions allege that nearly all functions are performed off tribal land by two non-tribal companies — Integra Financial Services, LLC and Nevada Impact Management, LLC — run by Dan Shaw and Greg Jones, who allegedly created Green Arrow Solutions in 2014 to continue a prior high-interest lending operation tied to Henderson, Nevada and North Logan, Utah.

Notably, Dan Shaw is a sitting Henderson, Nevada city councilman, sued personally over the scheme. One point of confusion worth clearing up: this is a different operator from the Kali/Layma companies (CreditCube, Condor Credit, Little Lake Lending) that also claim Big Valley ownership — a tribe's name can appear on more than one unrelated operation.

Six lawsuits and counting

Since 2022, Green Arrow has faced at least six federal rent-a-tribe class actions, including Toler (S.D. Ind.), Stewart (D. Mass.) and Hall v. Green Arrow Solutions (N.D. Ill., filed March 2023, alleging 844.98% and 804.09% against Illinois's 9% cap for unlicensed lenders), plus 2024 filings in Illinois and Wisconsin.

Four earlier near-identical suits settled quietly out of court — meaning the sovereign-immunity question was never litigated on the merits.

What Green Arrow Loans costs in dollars

Green Arrow Loans's published ceiling is 825% APR. Below is what that rate does to the amounts it actually lends, repaid over 12 monthly payments.

$900$620$7,439$6,539
$1,500$1,033$12,398$10,898

At 825%, a $200 balance accrues about $138 in interest every month. Any payment below that figure leaves you owing more than you started with, however long you pay.

Frequently asked questions

What is the APR on a Green Arrow loan?

Green Arrow’s own website sample shows a $300 loan at 825% APR; court filings allege actual loans at 804.09% and 844.98%. Your agreement states the exact figure.

How do I stop Green Arrow from withdrawing money?

Revoke ACH authorization in writing to Green Arrow and separately instruct your bank to block the debits, since borrowers report withdrawals continuing after cancellation. If you see a Green Arrow loan you never took, treat it as identity fraud: file reports with the FTC and the bureaus.

Is Green Arrow Loans being sued?

Yes — at least six federal rent-a-tribe class actions since 2022, several naming non-tribal operators Dan Shaw (a Henderson, NV city councilman) and Greg Jones. Four earlier suits settled quietly out of court.

Is Green Arrow Loans a tribal loan?

Yes. Green Arrow Loans is a tribal lending brand owned by the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians in CA. That means it lends under tribal law and claims sovereign immunity from your state's interest-rate cap, rather than holding a state lending licence. It is also why its APR reaches 400–825% — far above the roughly 36% cap most states set for small loans. Whether the loan is enforceable where you live depends on your state.

What does a loan from Green Arrow Loans cost?

Green Arrow Loans lends $200–$1,500 at 400–825% APR. At those rates the total repaid is typically several times the amount borrowed, because interest is front-loaded — check the total of payments, not the monthly figure.

Is a loan from Green Arrow Loans legal in my state?

It depends entirely on your state. High-cost tribal loans are effectively banned in nine states, where a loan above the rate cap can be void and not legally collectible, and restricted in many more. Green Arrow Loans claims tribal sovereign immunity from those caps — an argument courts have accepted in some cases and rejected in others. Check your state before you borrow, and especially before you pay a collector.

How this site works

We are an independent registry — not a lender, not a broker and not a lead generator. This lender did not pay to appear here and cannot pay to change what the review says. We take no money from any lender and sell no applications.

Entries are built from the lender's own published disclosures, tribal corporate and lending-authority records, federal and state court filings, and CFPB, FTC and state regulator actions. Of the 143 brands in the full list of tribal lenders, 41 are confirmed lending, 74 sit on a watchlist pending verification, and 28 have shut down. Where a figure cannot be sourced we leave it blank rather than estimate it — which is why some entries are deliberately incomplete.
