There are many reasons why you would take a short term loan out, sometimes in life, it doesn’t go as planned and you need money in an emergency and that is where short term loans can help. We recommend short term loans aren’t taken out for night-outs or gambling. However, they can be useful when needing money to pay for a bill or an item that you need. Just remember to pay the loan off as quickly as you can and you will pay less interest.

Credit cards – if you have good credit you can find some really good deals on credit cards. Some even offer 0%. Similar to a loan though, you need to make sure you make the payments otherwise you could find yourself with a CCJ.

Overdraft – if you have an overdraft with your bank it means you can spend more than what you have in your account. Again, be careful though and check the small print as some overdraft charges can be extremely high.

Ask a friend or family member – this should be the number one choice, if you have a great friend or family member who can borrow you the money, hopefully, if they are a good friend they won’t charge you interest.
