Products compared here

Among the 20 products compared here, these two are commonly used for the purposes described.

How borrowing works locally

Joint applications combine two incomes and two sets of obligations in the same assessment.

A longer amortisation lowers each payment and raises the total interest paid over the life of the loan. Disclosure requirements mean the cost of borrowing must be stated before an agreement is signed.

The Alberta rules that apply

Licensing for consumer credit in Alberta sits with the province or territory, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada maintains the public list of provincial and territorial regulators.

The federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) list Alberta among the provinces that regulate payday lending, where the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) cap the cost of borrowing at $14 per $100 advanced.

The lowest band groups villages, rural municipalities and small towns, all read against the same provincial rulebook.
