Payday loans can be easy to secure: applying for one requires practically no paperwork. People can almost always apply online and funds are made available hours after approval.

Information about how to compare payday loans
How to compare short term loan lenders
In general, payday-loan providers have minimal requirements for approval and in a vas majority of occasions, every applicant is approved. The price for the guarantee of quick cash is high interest and repayment required within a short period of time. The applicant has to consider these terms seriously when deciding how much to borrow.
For example, one of the criteria for a payday loan from Loan Ranger Cash Loans is that applicants must receive their salaries electronically. Based on the application, the client accepts the offered amount via electronic signature and the 'Little Loan' is transferred.

When will my loan be funded?
While most lenders can get you your approved loan on the day you apply, others may take longer or even shorter. Ask when you should expect your loan.
What happens if I can't make repayments?
If borrowers can't make repayments, providers propose certain solutions like extending the term of the contract with reduced payments or delaying payment for a certain time. However, the provider can take action if the borrower is found to be in breach of the credit contract.
