1/ I am confused by the grammar of de/del and paga/pago.
2/ Assuming you give the correct phrase (used in Spain) how wrong/useable are the alternatives ?
3/ Is the phrase for just "payday": 'dia de paga' or 'dia de pago' ?

4/ eh? 'batimore' reply has a typo.
so is it "prestamos del dia de pago" = payday loans
and "prestamo del dia de pago" = payday loan
or what?
most of these responses only cause confusion.

Prestamo de del dia de pago would be the correct term for payday loans.
It would be dia de pago. It is a noun therefor it makes the assumption it is masculine so it takes on the o at the the end. the word paga, is like saying paga el bil. Pay the bil. Paga is telling someone to pay, Pagar is the act of paying.

It should be día de pago.
Paga is the action (to pay=pagar)
