Online Loans Bad Credit: Some Questions Are Answered

By Andrea Williams


As it currently stands online payday loans for people with challenged credit are quickly becoming the most popular online finance option today. Simply put more people are discovering them, and liking what they find. Also for sure the global financial situation with rising inflation has more people than ever before struggling to make it from one check to another. It's also incredibly easy securing them online from your own home.

At the same time though, a lot of confusion regarding this popular newer type of lending online, and most particularly confusion regarding the application process abounds. Now there's several reasons for this, with one of them being that rules regarding payday loans can and do vary depending on which state in the US you live in. If you do live in the US. Also a lot of the information that's put out there online for you to read this poorly researched, and too general.

For example one common area of misunderstanding is whether or not you need a checking account to secure a payday loan. The answer here is no. Now while some sites do require that you have a checking account, still yet others will validate your application if you only have a savings account. Then again another new trend that's emerged recently is sites that will in fact wire you the money if you have no bank account at all.

Then another common question people will ask is whether or not they need to have a job in order to qualify. After all they are called payday loans, and order to have a payday it only stands to reason that you must have a job. The simple answer here though, is "no you don't need to have a job" because most sites only require that you have a verifiable source of income. As a matter of fact most sites will lend to you even if you're unemployed, and drawing off an unemployment insurance claim.

Then another common question that's frequently asked that's hard to find a solid, definite answer to, is how much money you can borrow at one time from a site. Now the common figure that gets tossed around is $1500 but there's a problem here. That problem is that how much you can borrow is dependent on your income - but there's more to it than that. This is because some states in the US have put a cap on how much you can borrow, with some allowing you only $500.

And here's something else that may surprise you. That is that six states in the US now prohibit payday lenders from operating inside their borders all together. That's online or community-based lenders. So if you live in one of these states, and you run short of money between checks you're simply out of luck. Also some states in the US today limit you to only borrowing a maximum of four times per year.
