Cash Loan from Swoosh
What is a quick cash loan?
A quick cash loan is a short term loan that can be accessed quickly, making it ideal in emergency situations. You can apply for a quick cash loan online and get fast cash to cover any costs.
Is a cash loan the same as a payday loan?
Today, a cash loan and a payday loan are more or less the same thing. They’re both tightly regulated forms of finance. This wasn’t always the case though.
Payday loans began in the US and arrived in Australia in the 1990s. The industry grew quickly and soon got a bad reputation, as lenders often charged enormous amounts of interest. The 2008 global financial crisis (GFC) prompted governments, borrowers and institutions to change their attitudes to credit. This change was the beginning of the end for unscrupulous payday loan providers in Australia. And then in 2013, the Commonwealth government abolished these types of payday loans by introducing small amount credit reforms. Thus, the “payday loans” of today are very different to 20 years ago.
