You should consider instant loans when there is an unexpected financial emergency when a quick fix can help cope with the financial pressure. For example, if your boiler breaks down in the middle of a cold winter or your car needs an urgent repair to get back on the road, a instant loan can help you recover. Keep in mind that these loans should not be used as a long-term solution – they should only be used to cover short term expenses that won’t cause you further financial hardship.

Are instant loans the same as payday loans?

No, instant loans don’t have to be payday loans. They are a bit different compared to payday loans, as they are usually repaid over a longer period of time compared to a payday loan, which has to be paid in full on your next pay day. Instant decision loans are more flexible and can be repaid over a few months, sometimes even a year or more.
