Provincial or territorial law decides who may lend in Alberta, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list that names the regulator responsible.

A payday advance in Alberta falls under a provincial licensing regime, and the cost of borrowing is capped at $14 per $100 advanced according to the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114).

How borrowing works locally

Interest on a line of credit accrues only on the drawn portion, not on the unused limit. Provincial licensing decides who may lend, and federal rules add a ceiling where a licensed payday regime exists.
