Payday loans in general are usually fairly easy to obtain. Until recently the basic method was to go to a payday loan “store”, a place set up to do payday or what is referred to as “fast cash” loans, and fill out an application. The way the basic payday loan works is that for a given amount the borrower would write a post dated check. For instance if you borrow $100, you would write the payday loan store a check for $100 that would be cashed or put through the banking system on your next payday, hence the name payday loan. It doesn’t matter if you have bad credit, that isn’t the point. You are providing them with a post dated check so your credit isn’t an issue. These loans began about the mid 1990’s and have blossomed into a thriving industry. There are now a lot of these stores. Recently, however, payday loan stores have take it one step further to the internet.

Getting a payday loan online is much the same as getting one in person with two major changes. First you can apply online. This means that you would search for an online payday loan site, click on the application and fill it out right there in the privacy of your own computer. The second major change is the one that makes online payday loans so convenient, these sites utilize something called “direct deposit”. Online payday loan sites determine at the time of application if you have direct deposit and then based on that issue you a loan. Again, bad credit isn’t an issue because they will be taking it directly out of your account on payday. When you apply for an online payday loan the lenders put the money they are loaning you directly into the bank and then they take it back out of the same bank account at the time you have agreed to. Online payday loans are fast and convenient as well as available to anyone with a bank account, direct deposit and a computer.
