About short term loans
A short-term or payday loan is a small-dollar loan, often used to cover unexpected expenses or to bridge a gap between paychecks. A payday loan is a financial solution that provides an alternative to bouncing checks or paying late fees. Payday loan is not a long-term financial solution and only can be used to cover short-term financial issues. A short term loan is a way for consumers to get the money they need in emergencies
without the same hassle that is associated with other forms of consumer credit.
Short term loans are relatively easy for most people to obtain - even
if they have been denied other forms of credit due to their credit histories. Short term loans help avoid bouncing checks, credit card and checking account overdraft fees.
