However, the word \u201cguaranteed\u201d can be misleading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Loan approval is not automatic. CashWaves does not make lending decisions or guarantee approval. Applications are assessed by individual lenders based on their own requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to understand how these claims should be interpreted, read CashWaves&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cashwaves.ca\/guaranteed-approval-loans.html\">guaranteed approval loans in Canada guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For broader information about short-term borrowing, you can also explore <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cashwaves.ca\/\">CashWaves&#8217; online payday loan information<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_a_Payday_Loan_in_Canada\"><\/span>What Is a Payday Loan in Canada?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A payday loan is a small, short-term, high-cost loan intended to cover a temporary cash shortage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada says payday loans may allow a person to borrow up to <strong>$1,500<\/strong> and may provide up to <strong>62 days<\/strong> for repayment. Actual availability and repayment requirements depend on the applicable rules and lender.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For official consumer information, see the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.canada.ca\/en\/financial-consumer-agency\/services\/loans\/payday-loans.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Financial Consumer Agency of Canada payday-loan guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Payday loans should not be confused with larger installment loans. If you need to understand the difference, CashWaves explains how <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cashwaves.ca\/installment-loans.html\">installment loans in Canada<\/a> use scheduled repayments instead of a typical short payday-loan repayment structure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_Guaranteed_Payday_Loans_No_Matter_What_Really_Guaranteed\"><\/span>Are Guaranteed Payday Loans No Matter What Really Guaranteed?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. Searching for \u201cguaranteed payday loans\u201d does not mean a lender must approve an application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lenders may consider applicants with different credit histories, but the application still needs to be assessed. Income, banking information, identity, existing financial commitments and lender-specific criteria may all affect the decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CashWaves&#8217; own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cashwaves.ca\/responsible-lending.html\">responsible lending guidance<\/a> explains that CashWaves is not a lender and does not approve loans, set loan terms or guarantee funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means phrases such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>guaranteed approval<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>100% approval<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>approved no matter what<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>everyone qualifies<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">should not be treated as literal promises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_You_Apply_for_a_Payday_Loan_With_Bad_Credit\"><\/span>Can You Apply for a Payday Loan With Bad Credit?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poor credit does not necessarily prevent someone from applying for a payday loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FCAC notes that a borrower <strong>may qualify without a credit check<\/strong>, although this does not mean every lender follows the same process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some lenders may consider current income and banking activity alongside or instead of placing heavy emphasis on a conventional credit score.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Approval is still never certain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If credit history is your main concern, CashWaves also provides information about loan options for borrowers dealing with credit challenges through its bad-credit loan resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Can_You_Borrow_With_a_Payday_Loan\"><\/span>How Much Can You Borrow With a Payday Loan?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Payday loans are designed as small-dollar short-term loans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FCAC currently describes payday loans as allowing borrowers to obtain up to <strong>$1,500<\/strong>, with up to <strong>62 days<\/strong> to repay in applicable circumstances. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That means an old claim such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u201cPayday loans from $100 to $5,000\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">should not be used to describe a payday loan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Larger amounts may instead fall under a different loan product. For example, CashWaves discusses larger, multi-payment borrowing separately in its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cashwaves.ca\/installment-loans.html\">installment loan guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keeping these products separate helps readers understand exactly what type of borrowing they are considering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Much_Do_Payday_Loans_Cost_in_Canada\"><\/span>How Much Do Payday Loans Cost in Canada?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Payday loans are expensive compared with many conventional borrowing options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under Canada&#8217;s Criminal Interest Rate Regulations, the limit on the total cost of borrowing for qualifying payday loans is <strong>14% of the amount advanced<\/strong>. In practical terms, that means a maximum cost of <strong>$14 for every $100 borrowed<\/strong> under the applicable payday-loan framework. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can verify the rule directly in the <a href=\"https:\/\/laws-lois.justice.gc.ca\/eng\/regulations\/SOR-2024-114\/section-3.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Government of Canada&#8217;s Criminal Interest Rate Regulations<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FCAC currently lists these provinces as having payday-loan fee and penalty regulations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Alberta<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>British Columbia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Manitoba<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>New Brunswick<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Newfoundland and Labrador<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nova Scotia<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ontario<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prince Edward Island<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Saskatchewan<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In provinces with payday-loan regulations, FCAC states that the maximum borrowing cost is <strong>$14 for each $100 borrowed<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rules and product availability can be different in Quebec and the territories, so borrowers should check the rules that apply where they live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Payday_Loan_Cost_Examples\"><\/span>Payday Loan Cost Examples<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At a maximum cost of $14 for every $100 borrowed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">Amount Borrowed<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">Borrowing Cost<\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">Total Repayment<\/th><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$100<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$14<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$114<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$300<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$42<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$342<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$500<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$70<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$570<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$1,000<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$140<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$1,140<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$1,500<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$210<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-right\" data-align=\"right\">$1,710<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, a $300 payday loan would be calculated as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>$300 \u00f7 $100 = 3<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3 \u00d7 $14 = $42<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>$300 + $42 = $342 total repayment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FCAC uses the same $300 loan example and shows a $42 payday-loan cost over 14 days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Is_14_Per_100_Still_Expensive\"><\/span>Why Is $14 Per $100 Still Expensive?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The dollar amount can look relatively small until it is compared with other forms of credit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FCAC&#8217;s example compares borrowing $300 for 14 days and shows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>line of credit: $5.92<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>overdraft protection: $7.42<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>credit-card cash advance: $7.65<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>payday loan: $42<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These figures are illustrative, but they demonstrate why payday loans are classified as high-cost borrowing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">FCAC also calculates a $14-per-$100 payday-loan charge over 14 days as approximately <strong>365% on an annualized basis<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That does not mean a borrower pays 365% during a two-week loan.
