You can apply for a last-minute cash loan through Sunny. However, lenders do not provide your loan in cash but will transfer the amount you borrow directly into your bank account. If you need this as physical cash, you can then withdraw it from an ATM or your bank.

Last minute cash loans are designed to help you in an emergency situation, such as if you have urgent car repairs to pay for, or are faced with an unexpected bill. Borrowing of this type is an expensive form of credit that may be appropriate for short-term financial needs but is not appropriate for longer-term borrowing or if you are in financial difficulty.

If you have a poor or limited credit history, you may find it hard to qualify for a cash loan. Instead, take some time to read our guide on bad credit loans for more information on how to improve your credit score and improve your chances of being accepted for a cash loan.

Cash loans give you fast access to money and usually have a relatively short repayment period. This kind of loan may also be considered a payday loan, providing support until you receive your wages that month. Some lenders may give you physical cash while others, deposit cash straight into your bank account by bank transfer.

Cash loans are there for emergencies and are normally taken out at the last minute when no other financial support is available. They are different to other types of unsecured loans, like personal loans, which tend to be repaid over a longer period of time. They usually involve borrowing a larger amount of money, which is repaid in instalments. Personal loans are often used for planned expenses, such as a new car or a home renovation.

You should only apply for a short-term cash loan if you feel confident that you will be able to comfortably afford to make the repayments on time for the duration of the repayment period. We also recommend that you ensure your reasons for applying are a true emergency. Always look into alternatives, such as borrowing from family or using savings, before applying for credit.
