The New Brunswick rules that apply

Consumer credit in New Brunswick is licensed by the provincial or territorial regulator, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list of provincial and territorial regulators.

In New Brunswick, payday lending operates under a licensed provincial regime, and the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) record a maximum cost of borrowing of $14 for each $100 advanced under SOR/2024-114.

At the small end of the census range, the community still borrows inside the province's licensing system.

How borrowing works locally

A payday advance is repaid on a pay date, while an instalment loan is repaid over a set number of payments.

A prepayment privilege allows a borrower to pay more than the scheduled amount, sometimes with a charge attached. A shorter term raises each payment and lowers the total interest, which is the trade every schedule makes.
