How Bad Credit Loans Are Regulated in Ontario
Unlike payday loans, bad credit loans are private lending. They are not governed by Ontario's payday-loan rules — instead they fall under the federal criminal interest rate.
| Regulation | What It Means in Kawartha Lakes |
|---|---|
| Governing Law | Criminal Code s. 347 (federal statute) |
| Interest Rate Ceiling | 35% APR (criminal rate) |
| Borrowing Range | $500–$5,000 |
| Repayment Structure | Fixed installments spread over months |
| Payday Licence | Not required for private lending |
| Cost Transparency | Full APR and total cost disclosed before signing |
Ontario: Bad Credit Loans are high-interest private loans, not payday loans. As long as 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.
