A short term loan may be the right solution for your sudden, unexpected financial requirement or if there is an unforeseen cash flow crunch in your business.
Instead of relying on credit cards with high-interest payoffs or running from pillar to post to borrow money from friends or family, a quick, easy, and hassle-free short-term loan could come as a lifesaver for many of us.
A short term loan can be taken for flexible loan tenures ranging from 1 to 12 months for loan amounts up to Rs. 1 lakh.
You need not wait for your salary to be credited to purchase that much-needed smartphone, pay for home or travel expenses, or pay your credit card bill.
Or, if you have a small business, there is no need for you to wait for your bill payments before you proceed with your business operations. You can place your loan request online and get the money in your bank account within 24 hours, without any collateral.
