Our verdict

Written and analysed by Smarter Loans Editorial Team · Reviewed by Vlad Sherbatov

Best for

Borrowers who want revolving credit they can draw on repeatedly rather than a one-time lump sum

Not for

Borrowers needing more than $15,000, or those with income under $2,500 a month

What we like

+ Revolving line means you pay interest only on what you draw
+ APR floor of 19.9% is well below the payday and near-cap alternatives
+ Accepts any income type

Where it could improve

− $2,500 monthly income requirement is the joint highest in the personal pool
− Serves 6 provinces, so coverage is narrower than the national lenders
− Rates reach 34.9% at the top of the range
