Exhibit 99.1

                Cash America Reports a 31% Increase in
  Third Quarter Net Income Per Share from Continuing Operations and
                      Declares Regular Dividend


    FORT WORTH, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 25, 2007--Cash America
International, Inc. (NYSE:CSH) announced today that net income for the
third quarter of 2007 was $20,616,000 (68 cents per share). The third
quarter results include a pre-tax gain of $6.3 million (13 cents per
share after taxes) from the Company's sale of its notes receivable and
its rights to acquire a minority ownership position in an overseas
pawn lending business, Svensk Pantbelaning. Excluding the gain from
the sale, the Company generated a 31% increase in earnings per share
as net income increased to $16,560,000 (55 cents per share) during the
third quarter 2007 compared to $12,941,000 (42 cents per share)
reported in the same period of 2006.

    Total revenue increased 40% during the third quarter 2007 to
$231.5 million, up from $165.9 million during the same period in 2006.
The primary contributor to the increase in total revenue was a 97%
increase in cash advance fees, which were $95.4 million during the
third quarter 2007, compared to $48.4 million during the same period
in 2006. The growth in cash advance fees is predominantly attributed
to the continued expansion of the number of customers accessing credit
using the Company's online distribution channel for the product. Also
contributing to the increase in total revenue was a 14% increase in
revenue related to pawn lending operations, including a 23% increase
in sales from the disposition of merchandise and a 5% increase in fees
and service charges on pawn loans.

    For the first nine months of fiscal year 2007, Cash America
produced a 30% increase in net income excluding one-time gains, of
$49,003,000 ($1.61 per share) compared to $37,833,000 ($1.24 per
share) in the same period of the prior year. The 2006 year-to-date net
income excludes a $1.4 million (5 cents per share) after-tax gain on
proceeds from a lease contract that was terminated during the second
quarter of that year. Driving the year-over-year net income gain was a
40% increase in total revenue to $668.3 million for the nine-month
period ended September 2007 up from $478.8 million for the same period
in 2006.

    Commenting on the results for the third quarter, Daniel R. Feehan,
President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are pleased to see
the strong year-over-year growth in revenue in each of our businesses
during the third quarter. In addition, during the quarter we began to
experience a slight improvement in sequential loss rates on our cash
advance loan portfolio as the mix of first time customers using our
online platform moderated as a percent of total customers. This
natural progression allowed us to begin to demonstrate the opportunity
for the growth in earnings and marginal profitability that we
anticipated from this distribution platform. We are pleased to see
continued growth in this service alternative for our cash advance
customers. In addition, we enjoyed another successful quarter from our
pawn lending activities led by a 20% increase in gross profit from the
disposition of merchandise on strong sales activities during the
period."

    Cash America will conduct a conference call to discuss its third
quarter earnings Thursday, October 25, 2007 at 3:45 PM CDT. A live web
cast of the call will be available on the Company's corporate web site
in the Investor Relations section (www.cashamerica.com). To listen to
the live call, please go to the web site at least fifteen minutes

    Additionally, the Company announced that the Board of Directors,
at its regularly scheduled quarterly meeting, declared a $0.035 (3.5
cents) per share cash dividend on common stock outstanding. The
dividend will be paid to shareholders of record on November 7, 2007,
and will be paid at the close of business on November 21, 2007.

    Outlook for the Fourth Quarter of 2007 and Related Fiscal Year

    Expectations for the remainder of fiscal 2007 will be impacted by
earning asset levels based on customer demand for credit products and
by customer demand for the sale of merchandise in pawn locations.
Other elements expected to affect the growth in revenue include the
ongoing maturation of the 169 gross additional pawn and cash advance
locations opened or acquired during the last 36 months, the regulatory
governance of loan products and the development and profitable growth
of the Company's online distribution channel for cash advance
products. Based on its views and expectations related to the preceding
factors management expects that the fourth quarter 2007 net income per
share will be between 84 and 94 cents per share compared to 71 cents
per share in the fourth quarter 2006. Therefore, management's
expectation for the full year 2007 earnings per share will be between
$2.45 and $2.55 compared to $1.95 per share in fiscal 2006. These full
year results exclude the pre-tax gain of $6.3 million (13 cents per
share after taxes) in the third quarter 2007 and the $1.4 million
after-tax gain (5 cents per share) in the second quarter of 2006.

    In addition, management is initiating its preliminary expectations
for fiscal year 2008 with an anticipated range of earnings per share
of 2.85 to $3.05.
