What Are Small Loans?
A small loan is a type of personal loan that lets you borrow a smaller sum of money, typically between a few hundred and a couple of thousand pounds. At Monixa, our small loans range from £200 to £1500. These are unsecured loans, which means you don't need to put up your home, car, or any other asset as security.
You receive a fixed amount of money upfront and repay it in monthly payments over an agreed loan period. The amount of interest you pay depends on your interest rate and how long the loan lasted. A small personal loan is a popular choice for anyone who needs to borrow money quickly without a long-term financial commitment.
How Do Small Loans Work in the UK?
When you take out a small loan in the UK, you agree to borrow a set amount and repay it over a fixed repayment term. Your lender provides a loan agreement that outlines everything clearly before you commit.
Here's what your loan agreement will include:
Loan amount: The exact sum you're borrowing
Interest rate: A fixed interest rate so your costs never change
Monthly repayments: What you'll pay each month by direct debit
Repayment date: When each payment is due
Daily interest: Calculated on your remaining balance, all interest included in your fixed repayments
Once you accept the loan terms and agreement, the approved amount is sent straight to your bank account, usually on the same day.

Can I Get a Small Loan with Monixa if I Have Bad Credit?
Yes. At Monixa, we consider applications from people with bad credit. A low credit score doesn't automatically mean you'll be turned down. We look beyond the numbers and assess your personal financial circumstances and current affordability before making a decision.
We understand that life happens, missed repayments, past delayed repayment records, or an existing loan on your credit file shouldn't define your future. As a responsible lender, we want to make sure any loan we offer is genuinely affordable for you. While bad credit is considered, every loan application is subject to status and affordability checks. Not all applications will be approved, but applying won't affect your credit score.

What Can You Use a Small Loan For?

Unexpected bills can arrive at any time, a broken boiler, a surprise dental bill, or an urgent household expense. A small loan could give you the breathing room to cover these costs quickly without affecting your credit long-term.
Home Improvements and Appliances Repair
From fixing a leaking roof to replacing a washing machine, home improvements and repairs rarely wait for a convenient time. Borrow what you need and spread the cost over comfortable monthly repayments.
Covering an Unexpected Cost Between Paydays
When an unexpected cost hits before payday, a small loan can bridge that gap. Rather than going overdrawn or borrowing from friends, apply online with Monixa and get cash sent to your account the same day if approved.

How Much Does a Small Loan Cost?
The overall cost of your small loan depends on three things: how much you borrow, the interest rate you're offered, and how long the loan lasted. At Monixa, we use a fixed interest rate, so you always know exactly how much interest is included in your repayments from the start.
Here's how it works. Your representative APR is displayed clearly before you agree to anything. For a representative example: if you borrow £400 over 6 months, you'll see the total amount of interest, the interest amount, and the total repayable upfront.
Want to compare us against other lenders? Use our loan calculator. It shows the overall cost, each payment, and the amount of interest in full. If you repay early, you'll pay a reduced amount because the loan lasted for a shorter time and you'll owe less interest included in the balance. That could mean paying less interest than you expected, in a good way.

Will Applying for a Small Loans With Monixa Affect Your Credit Score?
No. When you apply for a loan with Monixa, we carry out a soft search that won't appear on your credit file or impact your credit score. You can check your eligibility without affecting your credit rating at all. If you're approved and choose to accept the loan, a record will appear on your credit history, just as it would with any lender.
Making your monthly repayments on time can actually strengthen your credit score over time. However, if you fall behind, it could negatively affect your credit rating. We always encourage you to borrow only what you can afford and stick to every repayment date. As a responsible lender, we'll never push you to take on more interest or debt than you can handle.
