  • Loan Acceptance Rules Relaxed

    Payday Power has partnered with around 16 same day lenders and so offers applicants one of the best chances of getting the cash they need as fast as possible through their simple application process.

    While many lenders have very strict lending rules and so can only lend to a tiny fraction of potential borrowers who apply for loans, Payday Power has actively tried to relax these lending rules, so that the service is available to as many people who need it as possible.

    Payday Power’s application rules have recently been updated to reflect changes in the acceptance criteria due to the addition of new lending partnerships. Previously loans were only available to employed UK residents who were over 18 and earned more than £700 a month.

    A few months ago Payday Power extended lending from only full time workers to lending to part time and contract workers and now with these recent changes, loans are now also available to people who earn over £500 a month which means more low income earners and part time workers will also be able to benefit from the option of taking out a payday loan in an emergency.

    However as a responsible company, high borrowing from low earners is still actively discouraged and for the lowest earners, borrowing will be limited to a maximum of around £150.

    As Michael the marketing and sales director stated “We have made it our goal is make sure every person visiting our site has the best chance of getting the money they need – and fast, while protecting those who can’t afford it” which also means that if Payday Power is unable to help a customer based on their details and circumstances, the applicant will be referred to partners who may be able to help with other lending options or even to help them rebuild their credit or manage their existing debts better.

     
  • Refused a Loan? It Happens!

    Sometimes people can’t get their hands on the money the desperately need – what then? Payday Power works in partnership with a number of emergency lenders and brokers to help people in just this situation.

    Our decision engine works in real time connecting with all the top UK payday lenders to help our customers get their hands on the cash they need in as little time as possible. Customers get a decision in litterally seconds and then all they need to do is agree the terms and in most cases money is then electronicaly transfered to their account and their payday loan is available in 1 hour!

    And sadly sometimes the application is refused at this initial first stage and we then refer the customer to our partners who are most likely to accept their application, but who do not have the technology set up to accept the application directly from our website and need the customer to visit their websites to take a little more information from them before making any loan offer.

    These additional loan options include some little known products such as logbook loans and pension advances which give our customers other ways of getting the money they need.

    As a responsible payday lender, we also try to ensure that we don’t encourage unhealthy borrowing which puts the borrower in even more debt and finds themselves unable to repay. In these situations we may refer the customer to a debt management or IVA company who may better be able to help.

    As many banks and credit card companies have acted irresponsibly in the past it is also possible to help borrowers reclaim part or all of their credit card or loan payments.

     
  • Payday Power Powers Up with Major Upgrade

    Payday Power has recently launched it’s new website design after months of design tweaks and user feedback testing.

    Payday Power has been providing payday loans to working people in the UK since 2008. The payday product is relatively new to the UK as a financial product and interest in these loans has been rising since they arrived in the UK from the USA a few years ago. Payday loans are small short term loans, taken out for a week or two which then are repaid on the borrowers next pay date. They have been designed to be used primarily as a short term fix to short term financial problems and emergencies such as an unforeseen bill or other financial obligation and not to be used by people with more serious long term problems.

    The new website design aims to make the product as simple and straightforward as possible for users, so that they can get their money as quickly as possible. During the testing period many issues were raised by users not just on the ‘old’ website by also with a number of competitor’s websites.  Julian the creative director informs us that “Feedback ranged from not knowing if customers could qualify before they applied, customers not knowing how to find out how much their loan would cost them to understanding what would happen when at each stage of the application process. We have addressed all these issues and early results show it is all working smoothly with not a single error being reported – as yet!”.

    A ‘report an error’ button has also been added to the site so that problems can be addressed and fixed as quickly as possible. Michael the marketing director says “It’s not just the front end visuals of the website that have been given a facelift, the backend – the decision engine – has also been upgraded which means for customers that not only will they have a better chance of getting a loan with us, but if their application fails, we can intelligently inform them why and suggest possible answers. We found that many more people would get their application accepted with a little feedback along the way.”

  • First Time Loans Now Up to £800!

    Tags: payday advances, Payday Loans,

    We have recently increased our first time loan lending limits up from £300 to £800.

    As we are partnering with more payday lenders, this is giving our customers a greater chance of getting their application accepted without having to shop around for the best deal on the web. Now with the increased lending limit, we believe that Payday Power is the only place you need to go to when you need a fast same day loan.

    While the limits have increased we still advise all our customers to only borrow what they can easily manage to repay on their next payday to avoid any further complications or fees.
