What is an emergency loan?

Emergency loans provide quick access to money when immediate, unexpected expenses arise. If you find yourself with a bill you just can’t pay right now, an urgent payday loan could be a solution. You need to make sure you can make the repayments. If you can, however, a loan from us could tide you over while you can’t make ends meet.

Emergency payday loans have no specific purpose in terms of how they’re spent. However, borrowers generally need emergency loans for immediate expenses like the following:

  • Urgent car repair

    For most people in the UK, cars are their primary mode of transport. If your car breaks down unexpectedly, it can be a real problem. You might not be able to get to work, for example, or you might live in a rural area with no alternative means of travel. It might also turn out that the money you’ve got right now isn’t enough to cover the repair costs. Maybe you’ll have it when your next payday comes but not right now. Emergency cash loans can help you pay for urgent car repairs in this situation.

  • Emergency home repairs

    If repairs are needed to your home, say for a leaking roof, a broken window or a burst pipe, you and your family could be vulnerable to the elements or further property damage until it’s fixed. Applying for an online emergency loan could help you fix problems like this as soon as possible.

  • Broken household appliances

    If your washing machine breaks down, your fridge stops working or another household appliance breaks in your home, you might find that you can’t live without it. If you find this is the case for you, then you might need some help to fund repairs. Cashfloat loans come with a high APR, like all short term borrowing options, but we can get you the funds to pay for expensive repairs.

  • Emergency travels

    This is when funds are needed to cover the cost of emergency travels, such as for a funeral, a family emergency or another similar unexpected event. Since emergency travel needs can rarely be predicted, emergency loans can be useful to help get people the funds they need to pay for plane or train tickets and other travel-related expenses.

  • Unexpected bills

    Sometimes people are hit by normal but unexpectedly large bills and living expenses, and they just need a bit of extra help to pay them off. Normal household expenses are just unusually high sometimes, and if a big payment comes at a time when you’re strapped for cash, you might need extra help to pay it. A Cashfloat loan could help. Just make sure you can’t find the funds elsewhere and that you can afford to repay the loan when the time comes.


Have peace of mind with your loan transferred to you within 1 hour* of approval. Allow yourself to focus on dealing with the emergency, knowing that the money is there for you.

Emergency loans for bad credit

Do you need a loan, but you have bad credit? Good news! Cashfloat accepts applications from people with bad credit scores. Our emergency payday loans for bad credit in the UK are quick and easy to apply for. We can help you access the money you need.

Bad credit emergency loans are unsecured loans for people with very poor credit scores. Despite this, you can still borrow money from some online lenders if you can prove that you have a good income. Cashfloat is one of the top bad credit direct lenders in the UK.

Like all responsible lenders in the UK, we do run credit checks on all our loan applicants. However, we look at more than just an applicant’s credit history. We also look closely at their level of affordability. In fact, we place more importance on someone’s level of affordability than on their credit history. If you can prove you can afford to repay a loan, there’s a good chance you’ll be accepted with Cashfloat.

As well as accepting loans from people with bad credit scores, we also don’t ask for a guarantor or for collateral from people who take out a loan with us.

As a direct lender, our emergency payday loans for poor to fair credit comes with no broker fees. We’re transparent with our pricing as well, and you can repay your loan in adjustable instalments that fit your budget. On top of this, you can repay your loan early if you want and save on interest payments.

We’ve also got our Easy Start feature, which reduces the amount on your first monthly instalment to make repaying a loan easier overall. Read about Easy Start here.

Do Cashfloat offer emergency loans with no credit check?

Cashfloat is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and we’re a responsible lender. You can find us listed on the Financial Services Register under permission licence 714479. FCA regulation does not allow lending without a responsible lending check because it puts a customer’s financial safety at risk.

You shouldn’t apply for a loan from any company that offers emergency payday loans without a credit worthiness assessment. Credit worthiness assessments are an essential part of responsible lending. Lenders that give out loans without carrying out these assessments aren’t following the FCA guidance, and you should avoid them.

At Cashfloat, we treat all our customers equally. All our customers receive the same interest rate whatever their credit score is. For a fair loan experience, apply now with Cashfloat!

Can I get a Cashfloat emergency loan if I’m on benefits?

At Cashfloat, we’ll accept your application as long as you have a steady source of income. If you’re on benefits, you can apply for a Cashfloat loan. However, benefits must only form part of your overall income. You must have another regular source of paid income alongside being on benefits in order to qualify for a Cashfloat loan.
