Who are MoneyBoat?
Moneyboat are a direct lender offering customers loans up to £1,500. These can be repaid over a maximum of 6 instalments and new customers are eligible for up to an £800 loan, with existing customers able to borrow higher amounts. Moneyboat loans can be ideal for those needing short-term funding quickly and flexible repayment terms. They are Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) approved and a loan application can be completed online.
When comparing to our loan options here at QuidMarket, you’ll see we also offer quick cash loans to customers needing funds in an emergency. As an FCA authorised direct lender, we also offer loans up to a maximum of £1,500. We can help both new and existing customers, as long their first loan is settled in full, and we provide an easy application form to apply online.
One of the main differences between us and Moneyboat is that we do not charge any fees to our customers. This includes admin or processing fees and we also do not charge customers for missing repayments. Moneyboat will charge a £15 one-off fee if customers do miss a repayment, if not settled within 3 days of the due date. We could charge a fee as this would be within FCA guidelines, however, we choose not to and understand that circumstances can quickly change. It’s important to sustain your loan repayments, but if you are late making a repayment, you’ll have peace of mind we won’t charge a late fee.
Choosing an Alternative to Moneyboat
When seeking an alternative to Moneyboat, it’s important to compare your options. As there are many similar lenders available online, you should take the time to compare lenders. You may be tempted to look at payday loans in an emergency, however, these may not provide the flexibility you need. You may also consider choosing a personal loan with a high street lender, however, your options to borrow amounts smaller than £1,000 will be limited and they may not be able to help those with a poor credit history.
Here at QuidMarket, we’re an alternative to Moneyboat and high-street lenders, helping those who may have struggled to borrow elsewhere. If you have been declined due to a low credit score, we may be able to help you with our alternative. You’ll need to have plenty of affordability to be able to sustain repayments. We need to make sure a loan, whether it’s for £300 or £1,000, is sustainable for you and will not cause financial difficulty. As an FCA approved responsible lender, we’ll only approve a loan if we can determine it’s affordable for you and will have to decline your application if not.
