What is a Payday Loan versus an Installment Loan?

A payday loan is usually repaid in a single repayment on the borrower’s next payday, or when income is received from another source. The due date for a payday loan is typically two to four weeks from the date the loan was made. On the other hand, an installment loan is a type of loan in which you borrow a sum of money and must pay it back in fixed amounts called “installments” on specific dates as indicated on a payment schedule. Unlike payday loans, installment loans give you the flexibility to pay over a much longer period of time.
