How Bad Credit Loans Are Regulated in Alberta

Maximum Interest Rate35% APR (criminal rate)
Loan Range$500–$5,000
RepaymentFixed installments over months

Alberta: Bad Credit Loans are high-interest private loans, not payday loans. Provided the effective annual rate stays at or below the federal criminal rate of 35% APR (Criminal Code s. 347), lenders may offer them without a payday licence. Always review the full cost and APR before signing.
