Thirteen in the Smarter Loans network, the same thirteen that serve the rest of the province on the personal loans in British Columbia page, from $15 advances to $35,000 instalment loans at rates from 0% on the smallest fee-priced advances up to the 35% federal cap. Every one lends online, so the application, the decision and the deposit happen from your phone and nothing depends on a Surrey branch. Eight of the thirteen pay out within 24 hours, three within the hour and all thirteen within two days; nine consider a score under 560 and four want a fair score or better; income minimums run from $1,000 to $2,500 a month from any regular source.
On our platform in the first half of 2026, British Columbians asked for $5,597 on average for a personal loan and $484 for an everyday advance under $1,500. Use those to check your own request: a personal loan around $5,600 is the ordinary case, a request far above your income pushes you toward the top of a lender's range or a decline, and one well under $1,500 is an everyday advance, priced by fee rather than APR, which the online loans in British Columbia page covers.
The province's, and Surrey adds none of its own. BC treats any credit with an APR above 32% as a high-cost credit product, and anyone who offers or arranges one needs a licence from Consumer Protection BC; the federal cap is 35%, so a loan priced between the two is legal but licensed, and it is worth asking any lender quoting above 32% for its licence. A payday loan is regulated separately at $14 per $100, and the payday loans in British Columbia page sets those rules out. What decides your cost is which product you are routed to, and that is decided by whether you can repay on your next pay date.
Every personal lender in the network is on the personal loans in Canada page, and the lenders that lend below 560 across the network are on the bad credit loans in Canada page.
