Our Happy Customers

Borrow Money

There are a variety of reasons why you may need to borrow money, but one of the most common in relation to a short-term loan is an emergency financial situation, such as a house or car repair, that requires you to secure funds quickly and then repay them over a manageable timescale. Here at Clever Loans, we can help you to find the ideal loan option to borrow the money you need.

How do I know the right place to borrow money?

There is not one specific ideal lender to borrow money from, but at Clever Loans, we help individuals and families to find their best option by comparing up to 20 lenders and then providing you with the quote that best fits the loan amount and timescale you requested.

How reliable are our lenders?

We have full confidence in the reliability of our lenders, as we ensure that any lender we work with for our clients to borrow money from is fully FCA-regulated and all loan terms are clearly defined.

How long does it take to receive my loan?

We appreciate that receiving your funds as soon as possible is a key requirement for those looking to borrow money to deal with an emergency financial need. If you are accepted by the direct lender that provided a quote, you could have your funds in minutes**, depending on internal bank processes.

What amount can I choose to borrow?

The loan amounts offered range from £100 to £5,000, with a range of repayment lengths depending on your exact requirements with regards to how you want to borrow money at the present time.

How do I qualify to borrow money?

There are a few key criteria for any short-term loan application in the UK, with all borrowers who are seeking to be accepted for a loan needing to ensure that they:

  • are at least 18 years old
  • are a UK resident
  • have a bank account with a valid debit card
  • receive regular income – directly into your bank account
  • have a valid email address and phone number

When you use Clever Loans to find the ideal short term loans quote for your financial requirements, our online loan broker service will search across only FCA authorised and regulated lenders, providing you with a quote from the direct lender who you are matched to using the details you provide in your application.

What will my repayment terms be?

Your specific repayment terms depend on a few key elements, namely the specific amount you want to borrow, your APR and the number of months you have chosen to repay the loan over. We ensure you are provided with the best possible quote for your current financial situation and all repayment terms are clearly stated.
