Need Cash Fast?
An unexpected bill can leave little room in the budget before payday. If you need to borrow, knowing the full repayment amount matters as much as getting the money.
FastEasy helps applicants explore online payday loan options with Interac e-Transfer funding where available. Start with an online request, review any offer carefully and decide whether the repayment fits your next paycheque.
How much do you need?
Approval, loan amounts and funding times depend on the lender, verification and provincial requirements.
Complete the request with accurate contact, income and banking details. Check the information before submitting it. An incorrect phone number or missing detail may delay the next step.
A lender may request documents or bank verification to assess the request. Read each consent carefully and check which business is requesting access to personal information.
Look beyond the amount offered. Check how much will leave the bank account, when the payment is due and what remains for regular expenses.

Who Can Apply
At Fasteasy, eligibility depends on the lender and province. Payday lenders generally look for regular income, a bank account and a permanent address.
Other checks may include:
Meeting the minimum age requirement in the province.
Providing valid identification.
Verifying income and payment dates.
Confirming existing financial commitments.
Living in an area the lender serves.
Meeting the initial requirements does not guarantee approval. Review the payday loan eligibility information before submitting a request.

Personal loans
There are several steps between submitting a request and receiving funds: application review, verification, acceptance of the agreement and payment processing.
Before relying on a transfer to meet a deadline, ask the lender:
Has the application received final approval?
Are any documents or checks outstanding?
Has the transfer been sent?
Does the lender process funding during evenings or weekends?
What should happen if the payment does not arrive?
A submitted application is not confirmation that money is on the way. Wait for the lender’s funding confirmation before making a payment commitment.

Can Applicants with Bad Credit Apply?
A low credit score can make borrowing more difficult. However, credit assessment policies differ between lenders, and some payday loans may be available without a traditional credit check.
That still leaves income, identity and affordability checks to consider. “No credit check” does not mean automatic approval.
If considering bad credit payday loans, focus on the repayment first. A loan that clears today’s bill but leaves next month’s essentials unpaid may create another shortfall.

Bad credit?
Start with the income expected before the repayment date. Subtract rent, groceries, utilities, transport and other committed payments. Then subtract the full loan repayment.
Would enough remain for essential expenses?
For example, a $300 loan with a $42 borrowing cost requires a $342 repayment. Put that entire amount into the budget rather than counting only the $300 received.
If the figures do not work, consider asking the bill provider for more time or discussing a payment arrangement. A smaller loan is helpful only if the resulting repayment is manageable.

Based on the federal limit of $14 per $100 borrowed for payday loans. Some provinces set lower limits. Your lender's agreement shows the exact cost and due date.
Payday Loan Costs
Payday loans are expensive short-term credit. In provinces with payday loan regulations, the maximum borrowing cost is $14 per $100 borrowed.
The examples below use that rate. They illustrate borrowing costs and are not a personalised FastEasy quote.
| Amount borrowed | Borrowing cost | Total repayment |
|---|---|---|
| $100 | $14 | $114 |
| $300 | $42 | $342 |
| $500 | $70 | $570 |
| $1,000 | $140 | $1,140 |
For a $300 loan over 14 days, a $42 borrowing charge is equivalent to an annual percentage rate of approximately 365%.
Check the lender’s agreement for the actual terms and any permitted charges if a payment is missed.

Common questions about payday loans.
Here are the questions we hear most about online loans. Can’t find yours? Visit the FAQ page or get in touch.
With an e-transfer option, approved funds are delivered electronically where supported. The agreement still sets out the loan cost, repayment date and other obligations.
No. A lender must assess the request against its requirements. The amount requested may also differ from any amount offered.
That depends on the lender’s review and funding hours, outstanding verification and payment processing. Check directly before relying on weekend funding.
Start with the specific expense and subtract any money already available for it. Then check whether the full repayment can be covered alongside essential bills. Avoid choosing a larger amount simply because it is offered.
Check the lender’s instructions and funding confirmation. Contact the lender through its verified support details to establish whether the transfer has been sent or whether another step is required.
Contact the lender promptly and explain the situation. Ask about the options available under the agreement and applicable provincial rules. Review the household budget before taking on further borrowing.
Federal rules cap payday loan costs at $14 for every $100 you borrow. For example, the most a lender can charge on a $500 payday loan is $70. Some provinces set lower limits.
Read the lender’s name, amount advanced, borrowing cost, total repayment, due date and payment method. Ask for clarification if any part of the agreement is unclear.
