Payday lending is licensed in Saskatchewan; the federal Payday Lending Regulations (SOR/2024-114) publish a cap of $14 per $100 under the federal limit (this province's own published limit is $17 per $100 advanced, the top of the range the Regulations describe) advanced, and notes that a province may set a lower figure.

How borrowing works locally

Adding a co-signer puts a second file in front of the lender and adds a second person to the obligation.

Disclosure requirements mean the cost of borrowing must be stated before an agreement is signed. Interest on a line of credit accrues only on the drawn portion, not on the unused limit.
