Know what you'll pay, upfront

Since January 1, 2025, payday lenders in Canada can charge at most $14 for every $100 you borrow, on loans up to $1,500 and 62 days. Some provinces set lower limits.

Payday loans cost more than a bank loan. Borrow only what you can repay on your next payday.

Still have questions? Here are a few we hear a lot. See all FAQs

Is FlexiNest a lender?

No. FlexiNest is a free loan connection service. We pass your request to third-party lenders, and they decide whether to approve you and on what terms.

How much can I borrow?

You can request $100 to $1,500. The amount a lender offers depends on your income, your banking history and the rules in your province.

How fast will I get the money?

If you're approved and accept the offer, many lenders send funds by Interac e-Transfer, often the same day. Timing depends on the lender and your bank.

Can I get a loan with bad credit?

Possibly. Many lenders focus on steady income and banking history rather than your credit score alone. Approval is never guaranteed.

What will the loan cost?

Payday lenders can charge at most $14 per $100 borrowed, and some provinces set lower limits. Your lender must show you the full cost before you sign.
