Top 10 reasons to choose a PaydayUK payday loan
A payday loan from PaydayUK can be used for just about anything.
See our list below for the most popular reasons to get a payday loan from us:
1 Great rates
At PaydayUK unlike other payday lenders our loans have no hidden fees and no set-up or admin fees. We simply charge a price promise of £14.50 per £50 borrowed, with a Representative APR of 1737%. The APR sounds high but this is because it is an annual percentage rate and the duration of a payday loan from PaydayUK is very short term, usually payday to payday. To find out more about our APR and how it works see our 'Understanding our APR' page.
2 Quick approval

Once approved, just enter your bank account and debit card details (so we can deposit funds into your account and you can repay us on your payday) and then your loan agreement will be displayed online for you to sign. It only takes two minutes to apply.
3 Secure and easy application
Our application form is totally secure and simple to fill out. PaydayUK is secured by SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) this creates a secure connection between our customers and our website.
