Occasionally, everyone experiences those unexpected emergencies like the car breaking down, the refrigerator dying or the water heater having to be replaced. One never knows when these emergencies will happen and sometimes we are not prepared financially to handle them. 
It is at these times one could consider a quick loans available online. These loans are exactly as the phrase says, it is a loan that is meant to be repaid on your next payday. 
These loans are acquired through a variety of payday loan companies. These can either be brick and mortar buildings in person or can be online businesses. Most of the time, these loans are not based on credit scores, but are based on the amount of money one makes. 
Typically, the more money one makes, the more money that can be borrowed. To qualify for the loan, one must have a checking or current account and have their pay check directly deposited. The borrower must show proof of their pay and their bank account. 
On the borrower's designated payday, the loan company will automatically withdrawal the agreed upon amount. Payday loans can be very helpful in times of need, but one must be careful when taking out these loans. There are often very high interest rates associated with these loans. These rates could very well exceed 21%, although many states are beginning to implement laws which keep interest rates for payday loans from exceeding a specific amount. This interest rate must be paid along with the amount of the loan. Some lenders allow the loan to be paid over two pay periods and some will stretch the payments out even farther, but the interest will continue to accumulate the entire span of the loan. 
These high interest rates makes payday loans an expensive option, but they may be necessary in an emergency. It is important when taking out a payday loan not to fall into a payday loan cycle. This occurs when the payday loan is paid back, but because one paid back the loan he/she is still short the money they are used to having at payday, so they get another payday loan and then the cycle starts. 
When getting a payday loan, it is important to have a plan for paying back the loan and paying one's obligations without having to acquire another payday loan. Payday loans are meant for emergency purposes and should be treated as such.
