Comparing £100, £200 and £500 pound payday loans

If you are looking for a small loan under £500 pounds we recommend getting a short-term payday loan. Payday loans can be very useful if you borrow a small amount and pay it back straight away. Like all loans, you should never take a loan unless you really need to. Online quick loans should only be taken out to help with emergency situations, where a small loan is required to help pay.

On this £100, £200 and £500 loan page, we will show a comparison of different payday loan amounts, and the total amount of interest payable. This is to demonstrate the importance of finding the best rates available to you and that you only borrow the amount of money that you need.

Please note that these results are using a representative APR which may vary and are not personalised.

Comparing £100 payday loan to a £500 payday loan

What does this show?

Well if you are looking for a very bad credit loan then this shows the importance of borrowing exactly how much you need and not taking more just because you’re getting a loan. Bad credit customers will more than likely be paying the highest rates.

So if you are thinking of taking an extra £200 for a bit of retail therapy or to head out for the weekend, we would strongly recommend you seriously consider this as you could end up paying an extra £76 in interest alone.
