British Columbia Rules

How Business Loans Are Regulated in British Columbia

Unlike payday loans, business 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$5,000–$500,000

Cost DisclosureFull APR and cost shown before you sign

British Columbia: Business 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.
