How the Law Treats Bad Credit Loans in Ontario
Bad Credit Loans sit in the private, high-interest part of the market rather than in payday lending. Their rules come from federal law, not from Ontario's payday-loan statute, and the criminal interest rate fixes the outer limit on cost.
| Regulation | What It Means in Guelph |
|---|---|
| Rules That Apply | Criminal Code s. 347 (a federal statute) |
| Maximum Annual Rate | 35% APR (the criminal rate) |
| How Much You Can Borrow | $500–$5,000 |
| How You Repay | Set installments, paid month by month |
| Payday Licence Needed? | Not required for this kind of credit |
| Cost Before You Sign | APR and full cost shown before you sign |
Ontario: Bad Credit Loans are private high-interest credit rather than payday loans. A lender may offer them without a payday licence provided the effective annual rate stays at or under the federal criminal ceiling of 35% APR (Criminal Code s. 347). Check the APR and the total cost before you sign.
