Feel secure in your finances
Tappily provides flexible credit that is easy to manage and minimises costs, with a limit of up to £2,500.
Responsible lending
Here at Tappily, we are committed to lending responsibly, which means we are very careful when choosing how much to lend to our customers. We carry out strict, bespoke affordability checks using a customer’s credit file and bank transaction data. We will only lend what we believe to be affordable and will not cause our customers financial difficulty.
Automatic repayments
Tappily repayments are designed to be taken automatically:
  • Minimising the length of time a balance is outstanding
  • Saving you interest
If, after a payment comes into your account (your salary, for example), and you have enough available balance to make a repayment, our system will apply for up to 50% of your calculated disposable income.
  • We will only attempt for repayments up to this defined value in one calendar month
  • Once this limit has been reached, no further automatic repayments will be taken
  • This may be different from the minimum payment you must make each month

Access to your data is via a secure, encrypted channel under the government initiative of Open Banking. We collect the following information direct from your bank (once you have granted access);
  • Bank account number and sort code

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Tappily is so user friendly.

The ease of use, both borrowing and paying back is the best feature. Connecting bank accounts is a 2 minute process and once that's complete you are good to go!

The money arrives in your account instantly and when you pay it back it is instantaneous which helps for last minute payments.

A very handy product

A very handy product that helps out with those little problems that my arise at the moment when you just a little short of cash, reasonable rates too.

Very useful

Very useful to get you through to next payday. They connect to your bank account and take the money when you get it, which means less dishonest lenders for them and cheaper rates for us.

The only bad reviews I have seen here just by browsing briefly are from people who did not understand that Tappily do this, and have complained about this. Ultimately don't take out a loan if you can't pay it back, and if you don't want them to take it out immediately, you can set a limit to manage this easily on their app (eg: don't leave me with less than £300 in my bank account). Until you understand how they work, don't take out a big loan.

Need higher credit limit

I enjoy the flexibility of it, being able to check what I owe whenever I like. I don't like that I can't apply for a higher credit limit.
