The payday loan explained for Sainte-Martine

A payday loan is a small advance meant to be repaid on the borrower's next pay date. That description holds in Sainte-Martine as it does elsewhere in Quebec.

For a payday loan in Sainte-Martine, the practical point is simple: remember that the cost of borrowing is regulated and that rolling an advance over multiplies it.

A Sainte-Martine borrower keeps every asset out of the contract with an unsecured payday loan, and the lender carries more risk as a result.

The assessment behind a payday loan in Sainte-Martine

In Sainte-Martine, the lender's reading of a payday loan file works like this: the lender looks at income and a bank account rather than at a long credit history.

A lender reading a Sainte-Martine file asks for proof of identity, proof of income, bank records and the balances owed elsewhere.

Nothing in the Sainte-Martine assessment turns on the address itself; the file, the income and the obligations carry the decision.
