Company Records & Sources

Information checked:

These records explain the company names and business background connected with Everest Cash Advance. Each entry identifies what its source says and the period it covers.

Company identity — October 2016

The website’s company disclosure dated October 23, 2016 named FSST Financial Services, LLC, doing business as Everest Cash Advance, and described it as wholly owned by the Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe. The company’s published contact details are set out on the Contact page.

Vermont lender list — January 2015

Row 217 of the Vermont Attorney General’s January 2015 Master List — Unlicensed Lenders associated PDL Support, LLC with Everest Cash Advance and the exact domain everestcashadvance1.com. The row, added March 3, 2014, listed Vermont, Arkansas, California, Missouri and Colorado in its noncompliance column. This is a regulator’s listing for that period, rather than a current licensing determination. The relationship between PDL Support, LLC and FSST Financial Services, LLC remains unresolved in the records reviewed.

FSST lending disclosure — March 2020

A Dakota Coin Authority Form S-1 filed March 6, 2020, under Lending Activities, described FSST Financial Services, LLC as a Tribe-owned lending subsidiary operating through rushmorefinancial.net. It did not establish that Everest Cash Advance was renamed Rushmore Financial. A filed prospectus is an issuer’s disclosure, not SEC approval or a lending license.

Experience described in the filing

The same filing described Andrew Weston’s earlier work as a loan manager at FSST Financial Services. It described David O. Kills-A-Hundred’s loan-origination role there from February 2014 to March 2016. These are documented past roles, rather than current staff or editorial appointments for this website.

Lending framework

The Tribe publishes Title 28, Tribal Lending and Consumer Protection Act, covering lending regulation and consumer protections. The law provides regulatory context; it does not establish a company-specific license or prove compliance.

Current ownership, licensing and customer-service availability require separate verification. Records about similarly named businesses or a different domain are not automatically attributable to this company.
