How to compare personal loan lenders

Every lender in this directory serves the same product, a personal loan, but the details decide what you pay. Four things worth comparing across personal loan lenders before you accept an offer:

  • Total cost of borrowing. Canadian law caps interest at a 35% APR criminal rate, and every lender must disclose the full cost before you sign. Compare the dollar cost over the full term, not just the advertised rate.
  • Funding speed. Some lenders fund by e-transfer the same day, others take a business day or two. If timing matters, weigh it as heavily as price.
  • Income requirements. Most network lenders weigh your income and ability to repay more than your credit score. Full-time and part-time income both count.
  • Province availability. Lending rules vary by province, so the lenders and terms available to you depend on where you live.

The fastest way to compare is not one application per lender. It is one application matched against the whole network, and that is what the button below does.

Good to know

About the Canadian lenders in our database

The personal loan lenders and providers listed above operate in Canada and serve one need, personal lending: from small short-term e-transfer loans up to $50,000. This directory is provided to help you compare the market and understand your options. Loanspot is a loan-matching service, not a lender: when you apply, we match you with lenders in our own partner network – which may not include every company shown here. Listing a lender is for comparison only and is not an endorsement or a guarantee of approval.

Whichever lender you’re matched with makes the lending decision, sets the rate, and discloses the full cost of borrowing before you sign, in line with Canadian cost-of-borrowing laws.

Approval, the amount you qualify for, and your rate depend on your income, the lender, your province and your overall ability to repay. Many partners weigh income heavily, so applicants with fair or bad credit are often still matched. Comparing your options on Loanspot is free, carries no obligation, and does not affect your credit score – a lender only runs a credit check if you choose to move forward.

FAQ

Personal loan lenders: questions

What Canadians ask before choosing between personal loan lenders.

How do I apply to the personal loan lenders on this page?

This page is a directory to help you compare the Canadian market – you don’t apply to each company separately, and not every lender listed is part of the Loanspot network. Hit any “Get matched” button and complete one 60-second application, and Loanspot matches you with lenders in our network that fit your profile.

Does comparing personal loan lenders affect my credit score?

No. Browsing and getting matched on Loanspot doesn’t affect your credit score. A lender may only run a credit check if you choose to move forward with a specific offer.

How much can I borrow?

From $300 up to $50,000, depending on the lender, your income and your province. The application lets you pick the amount that fits.

Can I qualify with bad credit?

Often yes. Many lenders weigh your current income and ability to repay rather than your score alone, so fair and bad credit are frequently still matched.

Are these personal loan lenders available across Canada?

Yes – the network serves all Canadian provinces. The specific lenders and terms available to you can vary by province based on local lending rules.
