Products compared here

Each product below has its own page, and the Ontario position applies to all of them.

How borrowing works locally

A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments.

Variable-rate products move with a reference rate, while fixed-rate products set the price for a defined term. A deposit or trade-in reduces the amount financed and therefore the interest charged over the term.
