Borrowing in Ottawa

Credit Day is licensed to lend to Ontario residents, and Ottawa is one of the communities we serve most. Whether you live in Centretown, Kanata, Orléans, or anywhere else in City of Ottawa, the process is the same: apply online, get a decision within 60 minutes, and receive funds directly into your bank account.

What you need to qualify

  • Be 18 years of age or older.
  • Live in Ontario with a current Ottawa address.
  • Have a steady source of income you can document — employment, a pension, self-employment, or other recurring income.
  • Hold an active Canadian bank account in your own name.
  • Have a valid email address and phone number.

What a payday loan costs in Ottawa

Cost is set by provincial law, not by the city. Ontario's Payday Loans Act, 2008 caps the cost of borrowing at $14 for every $100 borrowed, and no licensed lender may charge more. That means a $300 loan costs $42, for a total repayment of $342. There are no application fees, no administration fees, and no penalty for repaying early.

How quickly can you get funded?

Applications take about 5 minutes to complete. Most Ottawa applicants receive a decision within 60 minutes, and once your loan agreement is signed, funds are typically deposited within the hour during business hours. Because everything happens online, there is no branch visit and no waiting for a cheque to clear.

Repaying your loan

Repayment is automatic. On your due date, the loan amount plus the cost of borrowing is debited from the same bank account where you received the funds. You can also repay in full at any time at no extra charge. If you cannot repay on your due date, Ontario law gives you the right to a free extended payment plan — contact us before the due date and we will arrange one.
