Is a payday loan with bad credit right for me?
Everyone experiences emergency situations, like your washing machine flooding your kitchen or your car breaking down just as you're about to take your kids to school. When that happens, your credit score will be the last thing on your mind.
When these unexpected costs crop up, you shouldn’t have to worry that you can’t get the help you need. Here at Moneyboat, we think that everyone should be equally considered for safe and quick cash, even if your credit history isn’t perfect.
We take a look at each application for our instalment loans on a case-by-case basis, and if you meet our key eligibility criteria, your application could be approved, and funding deposited in your bank within 15 minutes*.
Can I get a Moneyboat quick loan even with bad credit?
While traditional instant loans for bad credit were designed to be paid off when your wages were paid at the end of the month, Moneyboat loans work a little differently. We offer a short-term, flexible payday loan that is right for your circumstances, so you could get a same-day loan even with bad credit. You can pay back our short term loan in affordable, manageable repayments, or you can pay it back in one go without facing fees or penalties.
Short-term loans from direct lenders like Moneyboat aren’t meant for long-term expenses. If you’re struggling with money over a longer period of time, an instant loan for bad credit might not be right for you – you can reach out to organisations like StepChange or MoneyHelper for more support. However, if you manage a bad credit payday loan responsibly, it can be very helpful in an emergency. You can find out whether you’re eligible to apply for a short term loan by checking out our eligibility requirements.

Why choose a Moneyboat payday loan?
Our loan is referred to in lots of ways – payday loans, short-term loans, quick loans, but at the core of it, we provide a flexible instalment loan. Here are some quick facts about what we offer so you can figure out whether we’re right for you:
- New customers can send us an application for between £200-800
- Existing customers who have passed our credit checks are eligible to apply for loans of up to £1500
- Our interest rate of 0.79% per day is lower than the industry's maximum
- Our repayment terms are flexible, from a minimum of 2 instalments - up to a maximum of 6 months
- You will always have the option to repay your loan early without penalties
- For our new customer, we'll never ask your first instalment to be paid in less than five days, so you'll have plenty of time to manage your money
How do I check if I’m eligible for a bad credit payday loan?
Direct lenders across the industry will have their own criteria that you need to meet, but the minimum requirements that responsible lenders need to check for include:
- You are at least 18 years old and a resident of the UK.
- You have a regular source of income of at least £1000 per month - this includes full-time and part-time employment with a steady income. This does not include those on benefits
- You haven’t had a CCJ in the last 12 months or been declared bankrupt in the last three years
- You have a UK bank account in your name
Here at Moneyboat, your application will also include a credit check, to perform a credit worthiness assessment, this will look through your financial history to check whether you would be suitable for a loan. As per our eligibility criteria mentioned above, this also looks for any recent CCJs or bankruptcy – there’s more information on this in our guide on ‘What is a CCJ?’.
