How many times have you wished that your pay was in your bank account a few weeks or even just a few days early? Payday loans may make just that come true and in some cases can be simplicity itself in setting up, receiving the cash advance and repaying:

• Speed is the key to the way in which most payday advance loans work;

• Simplicity in the application process is therefore a natural companion;

• Given the available technology, online pay day applications tend to be the fastest and most simple, avoiding the need for an appearance in person, sending anything by fax, postal delays, or frustrating queuing to get through to a call centre;

• Typically, one of the first things you’ll want to decide is the amount of advance pay you need;

• In all likelihood, the amount you need will be influenced by the day on which your next pay day falls (or, possibly, the next but one), so this is likely to effectively determine how long you need to borrow the money;

• Based on that simple exchange of information, the lender will typically advise the total cost of the arrangement you’re looking to set up, including interest and any fees;

• Once you’re in possession of that necessary information, you’ll probably be in a position to decide whether you want to go ahead and apply for the loan;

• The application itself – especially one that you’re making online – is typically very simple and straight forward, requiring some information about yourself, your work and your income;

• Once again, if you’re making your application online, all that’s needed to send the application to the lender is a simple click of the button;

• By the same token, the lender will typically give you a very fast response to your online application:

• In that way, you could find that with some providers the advance reaches your bank account within a matter of hours (payday advance loans are typically paid directly into your bank account so that you have immediate access to the funds you have requested);

• With the advance of pay safely in your bank account, it is, of course, yours to spend exactly as you choose;

• However, it is probably worth reminding yourself that the responsibility for paying back the advance (on either your next pay day, or the one after that, depending on what you have agreed with the lender) is also yours;

• Payday advance loans that are not repaid on the date you have agreed will typically be subject both to increased interest and a penalty – so it is likely to be in your own interests to ensure that sufficient funds are in your bank account (usually for transfer by direct debit) on the agreed repayment date.
