Short-term loans are loans that you can repay very quickly, often in a year or less. Many of these loans come with repayment terms of a few months or even weeks. Online lenders usually offer short-term loans with varying amounts, interest rates, and terms. Short-term loan applications are usually easy to fill out, and may only take you a few minutes to complete. Short-term loans often come with lenient requirements, and you can get approved even if you do not have exceptional credit. Keep in mind, however, that you may have to show proof of steady income or meet other criteria.
