Products compared here

The site describes 20 products in total; the two below are representative of the range.

• No credit check loans: What lenders who advertise without a credit check actually look at instead, and where the cost goes.

How borrowing works locally

Interest on a line of credit accrues only on the drawn portion, not on the unused limit.

A lender may ask for proof of address, and a permanent address is a standard requirement for consumer credit. Joint applications combine two incomes and two sets of obligations in the same assessment.

The Quebec rules that apply

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

Quebec does not license payday lending, a fact the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) record when it lists the provinces that regulate the product.

Small places are covered the same way as large ones: census figures for the place, and the provincial position on lending.
