Understanding Payday Loan Costs

The cost of payday loans in Ontario is regulated by provincial law. Depending on your province, the cap is typically $14 to $17 per $100 borrowed. Always review the full cost before accepting any loan.

By law, every lender is required to show all fees and charges clearly and upfront before the loan is finalized. If a lender does not do this, do not proceed.
