Payday Loans Canada
What is a Payday Loan?
A payday loan is a form of short-term loan, designed to help people get through a tough financial period. Payday loans in Canada are meant to provide fast cash to help bridge the gap for a short period of time, which is why the total cost of borrowing can be higher than other forms of lending.
Online payday loans are not designed to solve long-term financial difficulties. If you are in need of major financial support, consult a debt consolidation service.
What Can I Use an Online Payday Loan for?
Online payday loans are best used for emergency expenses, unanticipated bills or to supplement your cash flow for a short period of time.
Have you ever found yourself in a situation where you were only a few dollars short for an upcoming credit card payment or utility bill? If so, filling out a payday loan application could have saved you from some unnecessary fees.
All too often, Canadian consumers get caught in this financial trap. Because they were a few dollars shy and couldn’t pay off a balance in full, they get penalized with additional fees and interest charges.
But taking out a payday loan online can help pad your finances to prevent this kind of situation before it happens.
How can a Payday Loan help?
Have you been having a hard time keeping up with your bills? Are you worried that some emergency expenses could wipe out your bank balance?
You are not alone. Thousands of Canadians count on payday lenders for online payday loans to provide access to funding that would otherwise be off limits to them because of a weak credit score.
All over Canada, payday loans bail people out of tough financial situations on a regular basis. From British Columbia to Ontario to New Brunswick and everywhere in between, Canadians turn to a payday lender in tough times.
Loan Qualification Requirements
Our objective is to provide you with the fastest possible access to the cash you need. To expedite the process when you apply online, you will need to:
- be over 18 years of age
- Have a full time job
- be a candian citizen
- have an active bank account
A Better Way of Borrowing
Installment loans are the ideal alternative to payday loans because they allow quick access to cash, don’t require a credit check and have a much lower total cost of borrowing.
Without the need for a credit check, you can fill out our application form online and your funds can be approved and deposited into your bank account on the very same day!
When the funds are transferred and the loan is accepted, your charges will be debited from your bank account.
Payday Loan Alternatives
The best payday loan alternative is an installment loan, which is a cash loan that needs to be repaid over 90 days, not on the day of your next paycheck.
These loans are used in the same way as a payday loan – to pay for unplanned expenses or supplement your cash flow – but they are far more flexible and affordable.
Because they provide a longer repayment term and lower interest rate than a payday loan, this alternative source of financing is a hit with our customers. With a lower and more manageable repayment, you’ll always have the option to renew your installment loan if your situation changes and the repayment becomes more challenging than expected.
We recommend the responsible usage of payday loan alternatives. Only borrow the money you need today.
Total Cost of Borrowing - Example
Someone borrowing $300 via an installment loan to be repaid over a period of three months on a bi-weekly payment schedule will have to make 6 payments of roughly $75 to repay the principal amount along with any other charges or fees. In this example, the total payback amount is roughly $450.
Same-Day Deposits
Our online application form lets you to provide your documents (ex. income verification) from anywhere you can connect to the Internet. In only a few minutes, you can apply from the comfort of your own home on your desktop computer or while on the go from your laptop or mobile phone.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cash advance?
A cash advance is a short term financial solution, often used to cover car repairs, collection notices or any other type of unexpected expenses. Short-term cash advance services fulfill a need not met by traditional financial institutions, offering a less costly and often more desirable option for short-term loans.
A non-traditional cash advance is often the best way to receive a quick loan. Industry group CFSA reports that non-sufficient funds (NSF) cost consumers tens of billions of dollars each year from banks and credit unions. CFSA notes that millions of people each year “choose payday advance as a dignified, discreet, and often less costly solution for cash flow problems, without asking family for money or risking personal items as collateral.”
Many applicants also struggle to attain traditional financing despite having excellent credit. Many of them need quick access to working capital. Online lenders have emerged as a welcome alternative for borrowers everywhere. Online lenders are increasingly being used by consumers and businesses to get fast access to capital outside of banks. Also known as marketplace lenders, they “have leveraged low operating costs, minimal regulations, Big Data, and technology streamlined for a mobile generation to mediate terms between everyday borrowers who want quick access to cash.

Offering Installment Loans in Canada, Even with Bad Credit
When Canadians find themselves in need of short-term loans, bad credit shouldn't stand in the way. And the repayment process for those loans should be as simple as paying rent or mortgage, phone plans, electricity and other monthly bills.
Installment loans offer the bridge you’re looking for when you’ve landed in a spot of financial trouble. The small and steady payments allow you to easily plan your budget accordingly. Most importantly you can usually obtain prompt approval for these online loans without a credit check.
Here are some of the most frequent situations that may call for an installment loan:
Rent
It doesn’t matter who you are, you need a roof over your head. But an unexpected expense can cause anyone to be short on their rent, often a day or two before it is due.
Thankfully, an installment loan can help you in a few ways. First and foremost, you’ll have the cash to cover this month’s rent. And if you budget accordingly, the flexibility of an installment loan will also help you avoid falling behind financially in the future.
Car Payments
Falling behind on a car payment can be hazardous to your credit. An installment loan is a great solution that helps you make the necessary payments while allowing you to stay on course with your budget.
An installment loan can also help you phase out and replace a payday loan, which typically reduces additional financial concerns in the future.
Debt Consolidation
Are you caught in a payday loan cycle? Are you using a big part of your paycheck to cover your payday loans? Consolidating that debt with an online installment loan allows you to have a single small payment, instead of seeing most of your paycheck disappear as soon as you receive it.
If you have Bad Credit
Even people with bad credit are usually able to take out our no credit check installment loans. The benefits of that can be huge; you get somewhere to turn to when you need money, and you don't have to do so at a further cost to your credit score.
According to credit.com, installment loans won’t negatively impact your credit. Individual installment loans don’t account for enough money to play a huge role in your credit score. In fact, the same blog explains that paying off an installment loan for a lengthier term has a positive influence over credit scoring models.
Avoid NSF Charges
Unpaid NSF fees are damaging to your credit. If they remain unpaid for 30 days, your account will be considered delinquent and reported to the credit bureau. Delinquent accounts do harm your credit score and can further complicate your situation. 514Loans can help you avoid unnecessary NSF charges.
Holidays
When January 24th rolls around, most people are nervously anticipating their credit card bill from the holidays. Sometimes you have to financially overextend yourself during the holidays so you’re able to purchase gifts for your friends. Other times it’s a big family trip you couldn’t back out of, even though you were a little light on funds.
Regardless, an installment loan can help you recover from the financial stress of the holidays.
No Credit Check Loans
Benefit From Our PolicyOur applicants are not subject to credit checks. We use your banking transactions as well as other criteria to assess your request. We give you a clean slate. We believe in second chances, and we will take a chance with you when nobody else will.
What is a short term loan good for?
It should be considered as a bridge money to pay for urgent bills and not a method to increase your credit. Our rate are higher because we take a lot of risk with lending to someone with having done a credit check when issuing a customer a loan.
Short Term Loans
We understand that there are limits to how much you can stretch your paycheck in order to accommodate unforeseen expenses. Don't worry, we've got your back when it comes to installment loans in Canada.
Our Loan Rates
Our lenders charge an APR (annual percentage rate) of 22% to 32% depending on the risk score of the application.
Repayment Example
A 300$ loan with an APR of 32% is refundable in 6 bi-weekly payments of approximately $75. This example includes all the fees associated with the borrowed capital over the three months.
Terms of Repayment
Our online installment loans are repayable within a period of 90 to 120 days. Longer loan terms are available for loans over $1000.
Borrow Responsibly
Abusing microloans can cause negative impacts to your financial well-being due to their higher interest rates. The interest rate on an installment loan is higher than conventional financial institutions and should be used only for emergencies.
