Being short of money can be extremely frustrating and often stressful - especially if you only need to borrow 100 pounds before payday. If you also have bad credit, you might feel that you have nowhere to turn.
Fortunately, some direct lenders understand your situation and are happy to lend you the £100 cash you need quickly.
If you don’t want to approach a direct lender yourself, you can use a broker, like us, to find a company that offers 100 pound, short-term loans.
Top Tip: Always think twice about taking on debt, as there may be better ways to raise the £100 you need. From asking friends or family to selling something you own, such as a computer game, there are many ways to make cash fast without getting a loan.
What is a £100 loan?
A £100 loan is a small sum of money you borrow from a direct lender that you pay back with interest, over a short scheduled repayment period - usually in one lump sum or instalments.
These loans are usually obtained quickly and are designed to cover unexpected financial emergencies to tide you over until your next pay date.
What can I use a £100 loan for?
You should only use a £100 loan or emergency purposes, and only after you have exhausted all other sources of funding such as friends and family. You can use it for anything from paying a bill to repairing your car. You should not use it for going on nights out, topping up your wages or any other non-essential purpose.
You must think carefully about borrowing any money, though. If you’re struggling with money issues, we strongly advise you to visit the money advice service for help and advice.
Am I eligible to borrow £100?
Yes, you might be eligible to borrow £100 if you meet the following criteria for a direct lender:
- You’re over 18
- You’re a UK resident with a permanent address
- You’re employed and have a regular income
- Have a UK bank account with a debit card
- Your wages are paid into your UK bank account
- You are NOT currently bankrupt
