British Columbia Rules

How Bad Credit Loans Are Regulated in British Columbia

Unlike payday loans, bad credit loans are private lending. They are not subject to British Columbia's payday-loan rules — instead they fall under the federal criminal interest rate.

Governing LawCriminal Code s. 347 (federal)
Maximum Interest Rate35% APR (criminal rate)
Loan Range$500–$5,000

Cost DisclosureFull APR and cost shown before you sign

British Columbia: Bad Credit Loans are high-interest private loans, not payday loans.

Always review the full cost and APR before signing.
