What do you use your short-term payday loan for? We never ask these questions in our applications process, but we do get a lot of feedback and reviews from our customers. And this feedback is usually related to why people are using GoDay and the services we offer.

So what are the payday loans we issue being used for? It is becoming more evident that people are in need of help financially in the case of emergency situations, big events such as back to school or the holiday season, and for financial help to make it to payday.

MoneySense Magazine recently issued an article that talks about how half of working Canadians are living paycheck to paycheck. Are you one of these Canadians? While 39% of the surveyed recipients said they are “overwhelmed” by their debt, the Canadian Payroll Association found that 48 per cent of respondents said they rely on each payday to cover their bills states MoneySense Magazine.

It’s statistics like these that could be why we are seeing an increase in short term loans for necessary expenses. Things like specific events such as graduation or big purchase spending pop up and if Canadians are living paycheck to paycheck, they’re not creating a form of savings for the future or have any form of emergency fund in place.
