How quickly can I get a £300 loan?

At Cashfloat, we aim to give an immediate response on payday loan applications and to get the funds to people within an hour* if they’re approved.

As a regulated lender, we have to complete a credit check for every applicant to make sure giving them a loan won’t cause them financial distress. So we can’t just pay out loans instantly and automatically. We do, however, work as fast as we can to give lending decisions and send the funds.

We also don’t charge a fee for providing fast loan payouts. Other lenders sometimes add a fee if you want to get a fast payout.

Over how many months can I borrow £300?

With Cashfloat, when you take out a £300 loan, you get three months to pay it back. You’ll begin paying your loan back in the next month after you take it out, and your payments will normally be split into three equal instalments. You can get longer repayment periods if you borrow larger amounts of money. Cashfloat payday loans can be taken out for amounts from £300 to £1,500, and they can be repaid over up to nine months. The exact amount of time you get to repay a loan depends on both the amount you borrow and your own choice.

You can use the Cashfloat loan calculator to look at your different borrowing options. You’ll get to see what your monthly repayments will be, what APR you’ll get and how much total interest you’ll pay for different loan amounts and repayment periods.

Did you know? At Cashfloat, we offer a feature called Easy Start, and it’s available on all our payday loans. If you opt to use it, this feature allows you to adjust your payments into more manageable amounts and over a longer duration. All at no additional cost! Find out more about Easy Start here.

Can I repay my loan early?

Yes! With Cashfloat you can repay your loan early, and we won’t charge you any fees for doing so. You’ll also save on the total amount of interest you’ll pay. Other lenders often charge fees to people if they want to repay a loan early. At Cashfloat, you can make early payments, whether they’re partial payments or you want to completely close your loan earlier than originally planned. We won’t charge you anything if you do.

If you’ve got a Cashfloat loan and you’d like to make an early repayment, you can do so in the login area.

Can I get a £300 loan with a bad credit score?

With some lenders, having a bad credit score makes it impossible to get a loan. But with Cashfloat, things are different.

At Cashfloat, we don’t believe that your credit score tells us the complete picture about you. Sometimes people have a bad credit score and a poor credit history, but they can still afford to take out a loan. That’s why at Cashfloat we place more importance on an applicant’s level of affordability than their credit score. We carry out affordability assessments. If you demonstrate that you can afford a loan despite having a poor credit score, then there’s a good chance you’ll be approved for one.

Whatever your credit score, you can apply to borrow up to £1,500 today.

It is, of course, still a good idea to keep track of your credit score and improve it if you need to. You can monitor your credit score with one of the three major credit reference agencies, or you can sign up to a service like Credit Karma. Remember to pay all your bills on time and to get on top of your financial situation if you want to improve your credit score.

Can I get £300 loans with no credit check?

Not with Cashfloat, no. Credit checks are still an important thing that need to be carried out as part of responsible lending. Cashfloat are trustworthy lenders, we’re regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and we care about your financial safety. Credit checks are required by the FCA, and they help to identify situations where someone shouldn’t take out a loan. Even for small amounts like £300, we always complete a credit check. Nonetheless, with Cashfloat, people with bad credit scores can still get approved for a small Cashfloat loan without taking the risk of applying with an unauthorised lender. If you demonstrate that you can afford a loan, there’s a good chance you’ll be approved with Cashfloat.

What if I can’t make a monthly repayment on time?

At Cashfloat we understand that budgets get knocked off kilter by new financial emergencies, lost income or other difficult situations. It happens to the best of us. As soon as you realise you can’t make a monthly repayment, you should contact our customer support team. They’ll try to make new repayment arrangements that suit you better.


As another reminder, always check that you can afford the repayments for a loan before you take one out.

Why should I only take a £300 loan from a direct lender?

It’s always better to apply for a loan from a direct lender rather than a credit broker. Credit brokers take longer, they charge a fee for finding you a loan, and they send your personal details to all the lenders they look for a loan with. Going through a broker is good if you’re struggling to find a loan, but you should always try to find a direct lender first.


Cashfloat are direct lenders and brokers. First we’ll try to give you a loan directly. However, if we’re unable to offer you one, we can act as a broker and find an alternative lender that can provide the financing you need. We’ll only do this with your permission, of course.
