Firstcash Holdings, Inc.

One of the world's largest pawn operators, FirstCash runs pawn shops and consumer-lending locations across the Americas and the UK, making small loans against jewelry, electronics, and tools and reselling the goods customers leave behind. It began in 1988 when banker John Payne opened his first pawnshop, then grew through a 2016 "merger of equals" with Cash America. The name simply stitches the "First" from First Cash and the "Cash" from Cash America.
