Amscot opens Tallahassee branch
January 16, 2026
Amscot Financial, a financial services company, has opened a branch in Tallahassee, as part of a strategic effort to expand in the Florida Panhandle, according to a press release.
The Tallahassee location joins a statewide network of more than 230 branches. The opening follows recent expansions in Jacksonville, Port St. Lucie, and St. Augustine, which the company attributes to increased demand for short-term financial services.
Founded in 1989 by CEO Ian MacKechnie, the family-owned company provides cash advances, check cashing and bill payment services. The new branch will also offer money orders, notary services and Clerk of Court payment collections for child support and legal obligations.
"This new Tallahassee location allows us to bring our services even closer to local families," MacKechnie said in the release.
The company noted that its short-term, small-dollar loans are subject to Florida consumer protection regulations.
