Loans for people on benefits

Even if you are between jobs and receiving state benefits, you could still be able to secure a loan with Lendability.

Some of our lenders are able to consider loan applications from those on benefits, although your choice of lenders will be greatly reduced.

If your only source of income is benefits, you should consider whether taking on a high cost loan could potentially make your current financial situation worse in the long run.

You can apply now for an instant decision and we will do our best to match you with a suitable lender.

^Lendability will not perform a credit check, lenders may complete a soft check when considering your application for a loan.  If you accept a loan offer, the lender will perform a hard search which may be recorded on your credit report.  Not all lenders are able to make same day payments and this may also depend on your bank.
