How borrowing works locally

A consumer proposal or a bankruptcy is administered by a licensed insolvency trustee rather than by a lender.

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.
