The Quebec rules that apply

Consumer credit in Quebec is licensed by the provincial or territorial regulator, and the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada publishes the list of provincial and territorial regulators.

For Quebec, the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) record that payday lending is not licensed, so the cost limit should be confirmed with the provincial regulator.

How borrowing works locally

A payday advance is repaid on a pay date, while an instalment loan is repaid over a set number of payments.

A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments. Payment history is reported to credit agencies, and that record is what builds or damages a credit file over time.
