How your loan goes from application to your account

1

Fill out the online application

Click Apply Now and complete our short, secure application form. It typically takes under 5 minutes. You'll provide basic details about yourself, your income, and your bank account so we can deposit your loan and collect repayment.

We review and approve

Our team reviews your application and makes a lending decision quickly — usually within minutes during business hours. We consider your income and repayment ability, not just your credit score. Most applicants get a decision within the same business day.

Fast decision Not credit-score only

What happens here: We may contact you for additional information. Once approved, we'll send you a loan agreement to review and sign electronically.

Review and sign your agreement

Before any money moves, you'll receive a clear loan agreement showing your exact loan amount, total fees, and your repayment date. Ontario law requires full disclosure. Review it carefully — you have a right to cancel within 2 business days with no penalty.
