Student Payday Loans

At Payday UK, we help students access the payday loans that they need, when they need them most.

Being a student is notoriously tricky. Studies often mean the student can only work part-time, if at all. This leaves them trying to survive and pay for the materials for their course on what usually amounts to a minimal budget.

Getting access to credit, if you are not working full time, can be tricky. That is why we have partnered with a broker who’s panel of lenders specialise in providing credit to those who may not be able to get a loan from their bank.

Most students are more than a student. Some will have part-time jobs, some will be self-employed around their studies, others might study full time, but they will all have a credit report. There are too many variables between different people to make a blanket statement about their eligibility. Our panel of lenders is made up of a variety of specialists that can help people that don’t fit a standardised image of an ideal applicant.

No. When you apply for a payday loan for students, lenders only initially perform a soft credit check. This won’t damage your credit score. If you accept a loan offer, the direct lender is required by the FCA (The Financial Conduct Authority) to perform a full credit check before releasing any funds. All lenders must be registered with the FCA, so if a company is saying they can grant you a loan without a credit check, they are either not a genuine company or are misleading you.
