Highlights

The value of the UK payday lending market has increased significantly in recent years. In part this growth has been driven by payday lenders identifying and serving a viable market segment. This includes the increasing number of consumers who are no longer willing or able to borrow from banks and other established lenders.

Consumers increasingly expect financial services providers to deliver simple and transparent products and services. Trust plays an important role in developing long-term relationships between consumers and companies. Firms offering uncomplicated products and services in a transparent manner are likely to enjoy commercial success.

Consumers feel that there are numerous demands, both personal and business, on their time and as a result are looking for products and services which offer convenience. Wonga's automated lending process meets this need and has enabled the lender to justify imposing higher fees on its loans in comparison to conventional lenders.
