VANCOUVER PAGES

Who borrows payday loans in Vancouver?

Fewer people than you might expect. Vancouver made about one in ten of BC's small-loan applications on our platform. Nearly half of Vancouver applicants have a fair score, between 560 and 659, so credit is rarely what stops them.

What does a payday loan cost in Vancouver?

The same as anywhere in BC. A lender can charge at most $14 per $100, every fee included, on a loan of up to $1,500 repaid within 62 days. A $500 loan costs $70. Every payday lender in BC needs a Consumer Protection BC licence.

Which seven lenders serve Vancouver?

The seven on the payday loans in British Columbia page, all online. Six pay out within 24 hours, two within the hour, and all seven within two days. Five set no minimum credit score, and two consider poor credit. Income minimums run from $800 to $2,000 a month.

Our application reaches all seven at once, and the twelve lenders on the cash loans in Vancouver page too.

When is a payday loan the wrong choice?

When you cannot repay within 62 days. A short-term loan under the 35% federal cap spreads the payments over months and costs less. Every payday lender we work with is on the payday loans in Canada page.
