No provincial payday cap is published; confirm the position with the provincial regulator.

What Matane borrowers mean by a debt consolidation loan

The debt consolidation loan compared on this page is one loan that replaces several debts with a single scheduled payment, and Matane borrowers read it against the same provincial rules as the rest of Quebec.

A Matane borrower keeps every asset out of the contract with an unsecured debt consolidation loan, and the lender carries more risk as a result.
