Need short term loan? 5 platform that could help

In emergency cases, citizens would need a quick cash assistance. One of the easiest way would be a short-term loan to fund your need. While banks and other financial institutions offer various short-term loans, you should go for the one that suits your needs. There are three kinds of short-term loans you can get - overdraft, personal loans and credit cards. These are the most common type of short-term loans and people typically take these to repay credit card bills, medical bills or even to fund a vacation. It needs to be noted that personal loans are usually unsecured and require you to pay back in fixed monthly installments between two to five years. Interest rates are higher compared to secured loans and can go up to 30-35%.

Considering that demand or the number of applicants are increasing day by day, there are a lot of platforms that help you compare and select the best loan as per your requirement. Here's a list of 5 platform which can help in smooth financing in your short term loans.

The “Credit Line” means that the bank will issue a limit of up to Rs. 5 Lakh, without any collateral or charging any interest. Against this limit, using the MoneyTap app, consumers can borrow as little as Rs. 3,000 or as much as Rs. 5 Lakh and repay it as EMIs from 2 months to 3 years. 

The interest is paid only on the amount borrowed and the rates can be as low as 1.08% per month. The limit also gets automatically topped up as soon as EMIs are paid back. Any salaried employee can use this free Android app and, in a few minutes, using a patent-pending Chatbot interface, provide all the information typically required by banks. The app securely connects with the banking systems to give them not only an instant approval but also a credit limit, depending on individual credit history.
