What are Pay Advance Loans?

Pay advance, or payday loans are a short-term loan that can be used almost as an emergency fund in the event of a sudden or unexpected expense. They are, in effect, a cash-advance on your next wage-cheque, with the loan being for around 31 days, after which time the loan and the associated interest must be repaid in full. While there are many companies in the marketplace who will tell you that practically anyone is eligible for a payday loan, there are circumstances under which an applicant may be refused.

Someone who has been declared bankrupt in the last year or has a financial history with a number of bankruptcies is going to represent a substantial risk to lenders who, rather than increase the interest rate, are likely to opt for a refusal. Unemployment is another reason for refusal; the point of a payday loan is to bridge the gap between one pay-cheque and another. If you have no guaranteed income, you cannot guarantee that you will be able to meet the repayment when the loan expires.

In order to qualify for a payday loan, one of the fundamental requirements is a bank account that is active and shows a history of regular wage-payments. A bank account that is newly opened will not be considered for a pay advance loan as, in their early days in the USA, there were cases in which people would open an account simply to qualify, only to default on the repayment. A bank account that has multiple overdraft fees is also unlikely to be considered valid, as it shows that the account holder is unable to manage their finances and therefore represents an untenable risk.

As with filling in any loan application, you need to be sure that the information is correct. If a lender is unable to verify your identity, your contact details or your bank account details, then your application will be considered invalid.

Whilst there may seem a lot of factors that might prevent you from getting a pay advance loan, there are for more in your favour. You don't have to be a homeowner, you do not have to disclose your circumstances and as long as you have a job, an active bank account and an associated debit card, you can apply with confidence.

Applying for a pay advance loan is far simpler than applying for standard secured or unsecured loans. Searching the Internet will provide you with the details of a multitude of potential lenders, most of who will have online application forms. Once you have submitted the form, computers will check and verify your information and make a quick check of your credit score. If you have filled in the information correctly and your score is positive, you can be offered a pay advance loan almost instantly and see the funds paid into your account either on the same day or within 24 hours. Once the funds have arrived, you are free to spend them as you will, but most people use them to pay for unexpected expenses that have disrupted the flow of their finances.
