Very easy! Simply fill out the form and submit it.

What happens once I’ve submitted my request?

When you send in a request (fill the form and do the bank verification), you will get a confirmation. One of our agents will then validate the information you sent in to determine the amount of money we can open credit you. You will receive an answer from us to confirm your status. If your situation meets the requirements, your funds will be deposited in your account.

How long will it take to get the money in my account?

Usually, the funds will be deposited before midnight.
However, in some cases, it may take between 24 and 48 working hours to receive the deposit in your bank account, due to the processing time required by your bank.

Do you need to confirm my employment?

Only in certain cases, a confirmation of employment could be requested. This is done on a confidential basis and your employer will not be aware that this is a request for credit.

What is a variable credit contract?

The variable credit contract is the document we send you to confirm the agreement we make with our customers. The expression “variable credit” is different from “term loan”. A credit facility means that our customer has access to funds he/she can use at their discretion and the payment of the used amount can be done in an anticipated manner with no extra fees or penalties

Amortisation calendarFinancial support and credit scoreRepayment Period

Amortisation calendar

We determine your minimum payments together, according to your reimbursement capacity and the period during which you want to payback your facility’s balance.

Note:
-Membership fees are payable as long as there is a balance owing on your credit facility.

Financial support and credit score

Our company complies to canadian legal norms. If a special situation arises during your use of a credit facility, our service team is available to assist you in making the changes you need. The transactions taking place on your credit facility do not affect your credit rating in either a positive or negative way because we do not report to credit bureaus.

Notes:
-The repayment amount cannot be lower than 5% of the credit facility’s initial balance.
-Our product is geared towards ponctual use and reimbursement over a period of a few weeks.

Repayment Period

Our variable credit facilities are usually repaid in 3 to 6 months. Be responsible and borrow with moderation. We strongly suggest that you think of your needs and not apply for a higher sum than necessary. For example, if you wan to use our credit facilities, you can use this model : a withdrawal of $750 with bi-weekly repayments of $121.01 will take 10 installments.
This information is an example and considers that the money used at the time of the first withdrawal has been paid back in full before making another cash advance. In the example above, the $24.20 membership fees are included in the repayment amount.

Our credit facilities have flexible repayments, according to the terms of our client convention and can be repaid before the average 3 to 6 months in which they are usually repaid. You can choose to pay a partial amount or the whole balance at any time.
