Need a Loan Quickly in an Emergency?
Many of us will face some kind of financial problems in our lifetimes. However, when unexpected expenses appear, many traditional lenders can leave borrowers waiting for long periods of time to receive a decision on their loan application. In this case, quick loans can provide borrowers with the funds they need as soon as they need them.
What is a Quick Loan?
Quick loans, also known as ‘fast loans’, are short term loans that are to be used in financial emergencies. Lenders approve and deposit the money quickly so that you can solve your money problems as soon as possible. They are typically used to cover the cost of things such as one-off bills and unexpected repairs. At Flexy Finance, we provide quick loans of up to £5,000.
How much can I borrow?
If you need a loan you can apply to borrow anything from £100 to £5,000, which will be enough to cover the costs of any short-term emergencies which you may be having such as car repairs, unexpected bills and boiler or home repairs.
What Can I Use a Quick Loan For?
Ultimately, it’s up to you what you want to spend your fast loan on because there are no restrictions. But the relatively small loan amount you’re able to get means that they are best used on essential things that need to be paid for urgently. Here are some of the most common reasons why you may need to take out a quick payday loan:
- Vehicle repairs or breakdown cover
- Home repairs and maintenance
- Covering the cost of household bills
- Covering the cost of unexpected bills
- Putting down a deposit on an essential purchase
- Family and medical emergencies
- Cost of necessary food and travel
What Shouldn’t I Use Quick Loans For?
While there aren’t any restrictions on what you can spend your quick loan on, there are some things that you should avoid using them for. If you’re struggling to pay off existing debt, for example, then we don’t recommend you take out a loan. Visit the Money Advice Service to get help for dealing with debt problems. Some other things we recommend you don’t use quick loans for include:
- Unnecessary purchases
- Large purchases
- To help pay your bills each month
- Paying off debt collectors
I’m struggling with debt – what should I do?
If you’re struggling with debt, then you should not take a loan out to cover any long-standing debt. This can cause further financial problems and it is always advised to never borrow more than you can actually afford.
If you are struggling from debt there are organisations that can provide advice to you for free. These websites include:
What Are 15 Minute Loans From Direct Lenders?
15-minute loans from direct lenders are deposited into your bank account by payday lenders within 15 minutes of you applying. They are an attractive funding option for people with a financial emergency that needs resolving straight away.

How much is the interest rate on quick loans?
The current representative APR on the loans that we broker is 46.19%.
How does represenative APR work?
APR stands for ‘annual percentage rate’. It refers to the total cost of borrowing money over a year, including the interest and standard fees you have to pay. ‘Representative’ means that 51% of applicants will receive the same interest rate advertised or a lower amount.
For example, the representative rate Flexy Finance offers is 46.19%. Therefore 51% of customers will receive that rate of interest or lower. It is not a guarantee that customers will receive the same representative APR in their loan agreement.
Not everyone within the 51% will receive the same rate as the APR that is advertised. You will likely receive a personal rate which may be different from other applicants.
A personal rate may be higher, lower, or the same as the representative APR. It is usually determined by your credit score, how much you want to borrow, and your finances. APR is often used as a comparison tool to help people compare different loan providers.

In addition to showing that you can and have managed credit responsibly in the past. While students may struggle to be approved for a bank loan, some payday lenders are more likely to approve student applicants.
Will you perfom a credit check?
Credit checks are essential for confirming your identity, as well as assessing your creditworthiness and affordability. At Flexy Finance we will perform a soft credit check to confirm your details, which won’t negatively affect your credit report. Once you have been matched with a lender, they will then perform a hard credit check to complete their assessment checks before your application is approved.
Will I require collateral?
As the nature of quick cash loans is for short-term use only, alike to most short-term financing options, they are unsecured loans, meaning that they do not require you to provide any collateral to secure the loan against. Unsecured loans can be a great option for applicants who need a loan fast but do not own assets such as a vehicle or property to secure their loan against.
Will I need a Guarantor?
While you are not required to provide a guarantor with your application in order to be approved, some lenders may request that you provide a guarantor if you have had problems managing credit in the past. At Flexy Finance, we offer quick loans with no guarantor required. Although, if you want to provide a guarantor and feel it is necessary, then you may do so.
