What is a Payday Loan?

A payday loan allows you to borrow money until your next payday – helping you get money upfront in one lump sum and then you can pay the full loan amount and interest on your next payday from work. 

Payday loans are commonly used to pay for emergencies such as car repairs, broken boilers and any other pressing bills.

The money is paid into your bank account and collected automatically at the end of the month or your next pay date from work.

A typical payday loan lasts for 14 to 30 days, but today, they can extend to as long as 12 or 24 month, known as instalment loans.

Do I Need a £300 Loan? What Are They Used For? 

Payday loans are a short-term financial solution and can be effective if you need a couple of hundred pounds to see you through the month. This type of finance is usually quite expensive because it is fast and unsecured – and therefore it should not be used long-term.

Around 3 million Britons use payday loans every year and this is mostly to cover emergencies such as home repairs or other unexpected bills. We all try to save money and have funds put away for a rainy day, but if we run into a large and unsuspected bill, we sometimes just need a little extra cash to see us through.

 

How Do Repayments Work?

The repayments are collected at the end of the month or on your pay date, which is the day you get paid from work. Most people get paid on the last Friday of the month, with others getting paid on a specific date (e.g 15th or 30th) or on a four weekly cycle. The collections are automatically taken from your bank account through continuous payment authority.

If you are repaying your loan over 1 or 12 monthly instalments, you will usually repay an equal amount from your bank account each month – although always check this with your direct lender.

Plus, you should always have the option to repay your loan early and you will often save on any interest accrued by doing so.

Can I Get a £300 Payday Loan with Bad Credit? 

Yes, you can apply for a bad credit payday loan – since the lenders we work with are willing to take a view on adverse credit histories.

Although you may have a poor credit score, our lenders will consider your loan application if there are other strong factors involved such as a stable income, regular employment and a recent history of repaying loans on time.

If you can demonstrate your willingness to repay your loan and have a stable income to do so, you can still be eligible for a payday loan, even with bad credit or a CCJ.
