The borrowing problem: the harsh reality
At any moment in time, there are an unacceptable and unnecessary number of members who are stressed by unexpected expenses and don’t know how to make ends meet. Too often, low credit scores force many to reach in exactly the wrong direction: for a loan at an exorbitant rate.
-
The lending solution: this problem does not need to exist
LoansAtWork is a simple, fair, and effective tool Unions can use to help members escape the vicious cycle of predatory debt, with no risk or cost to the Union. Members need this reliable, low-cost option to manage unexpected expenses and pay down or avoid expensive debt. BMG Money does not exclude members based upon their credit scores, and its rates are less than 1/10th of the cost of payday lenders.

How LoansAtWork Works
LoansAtWork is an on-line installment loan program providing disciplined, responsible, and easy-to-manage credit at low rates. Access is based upon membership, not credit scores. Members enroll on-line in a matter of minutes and repay their loans automatically and reliably through payroll deductions over a fixed period of up to two years. This is an economical, fast, and smart loan alternative for members who may otherwise be driven to borrow from retirement plans, predatory payday lenders (up to 300% annual interest), or credit card traps to manage unexpected expenses.
Welcome Relief: No Cost or Risk to Unions
LoansAtWork is an exciting addition to the voluntary benefits world; we offer this product at no cost or risk to Unions. LoansAtWork works seamlessly with payroll systems to manage payroll deductions with no burden on our Union clients. Simple. Easy. Fair. Grateful members will welcome your support and reward you with their loyalty and productivity.
With more than 12 years’ experience, BMG Money has made $3 Billion in loans to satisfied members. We’re here to improve the financial well-beings, with a commitment to delivering fair, reliable, and affordable benefits in the hospital, education, and Unions.

How is LoansAtWork helping Unions and their members?
BMG Money is a partner and ally with the United Teachers of Dade and with AFSCME Local 1184 through our LoansAtWork Our program, which provides emergency loans that allow you to borrow responsibly and repay debt in affordable installments through payroll deduction options, is possible through our partnership as a benefit to the UTD and AFSCME bargaining units.
It is important that you understand that recently passed legislation, SB 256, will negatively impact our ability to maintain partnerships like this and it could cease to exist. Without your unions, your bargaining agents, to negotiate partnerships like ours, BMG Money and other exclusive benefits offered to union members could be unavailable services to the employees of M-DCPS.
Your union is valuable for many reasons, and we stand in solidarity with protecting your rights and your contract. If you are a member, we encourage you to recruit new members and tell them how important it is to save your contract. If you are not yet a member, we hope you understand the damaging results this law will have on you or your colleagues, and that you are encouraged to become a unionist. This and countless other benefits and services are only made available to you via your professional organizations, United Teachers of Dade and AFSCME Local 1184.
At your service,
