Common questions

How much does a payday loan cost in PEI?

$14 per $100 borrowed, so a $400 loan costs $56 and repays as $456. PEI once had the highest cap in the country at $25 per $100; the federal ceiling brought it to $14, the largest single price drop any province's payday borrowers have seen.

Can I cancel a payday loan in PEI after signing?

Yes, within the two-day cooling-off period, which must be clearly disclosed on your loan agreement. Return the principal and you owe nothing. If an agreement does not show the cooling-off disclosure, that is a sign the lender may not be licensed.

Can I have more than one payday loan at a time in PEI?

Not from the same lender. PEI requires your previous loan to be fully repaid before that lender can advance another, a rule written specifically to stop loans being rolled into new ones. It is the province's main structural protection, in place of the extended payment plans other provinces use.
