Speed and delivery

How Fast Can I Get Funded?

Time matters when you need cash. Our network is built for speed.

Once you submit your application online, our partner lenders review it in minutes. Approval decisions are typically made within 15 minutes during business hours.

If approved, funds are transferred directly to your bank account via Interac e-Transfer. Most customers receive their money on the same business day, often within hours of approval.

Funding speed may vary slightly depending on your bank and the time of day you apply. Weekend and holiday processing may take longer.

Understanding the cost

Fees, Interest & Total Cost

Payday loans are short-term, high-cost borrowing. We're upfront about that.

Payday loans come with fees and interest rates that are higher than traditional bank loans. The exact cost depends on the lender, the amount you borrow, and your repayment term.

Before you accept any loan offer, your lender will show you the full cost breakdown, including all fees and the total amount you'll repay. Always review this carefully.

We recommend borrowing only what you need and can afford to repay on your next payday. Payday loans are designed as short-term solutions, not long-term debt.

Repayment

How Repayment Works

Repayment is straightforward and happens on your next payday.

  • Your loan is typically due on your next payday, usually within 2 to 4 weeks
  • You authorize your lender to withdraw the full amount (loan plus fees) directly from your bank account on the due date
  • If you can't repay on time, contact your lender immediately to discuss options before the due date
  • Some lenders offer rollover or extension options, but these add more fees and should only be used as a last resort
  • Always ensure you have sufficient funds in your account on the repayment date to avoid overdraft fees

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

What is a payday loan?
A payday loan is a short-term, high-cost loan designed to bridge the gap until your next payday. You borrow a small amount (typically $100–$3,000), and repay it in full, plus fees and interest, on your next payday. Payday loans are not a long-term financial solution and should only be used for unexpected, short-term needs.
Can I get a payday loan with bad credit?
Yes. Payday lenders in our network typically don't perform traditional credit checks. We work with all credit situations—bad credit, no credit, fair credit—all are welcome. Your credit history is not the primary factor in approval. Instead, lenders focus on your income and ability to repay.
How long does it take to get approved and funded?
Approval typically takes 15 minutes during business hours. Once approved, funds are transferred via Interac e-Transfer directly to your bank account. Most customers receive their money the same business day, often within hours. Timing may vary slightly depending on your bank and when you apply.
What do I need to apply?
You'll need to be at least 18, a Canadian resident, have a valid government ID, an active bank account, and proof of regular income. You'll also need a working phone number and email. The entire application is completed online in just a few minutes.
What happens if I can't repay on time?
Contact your lender immediately before the due date. Do not wait. Many lenders offer rollover or extension options, but these add additional fees and should only be used as a last resort. Never ignore a missed payment—communicate with your lender right away.
How much does a payday loan cost?
Payday loans are high-cost borrowing. Fees and interest rates vary by lender and the amount borrowed. Before you accept any offer, your lender will disclose the full cost, including all fees and the total repayment amount. Always review this disclosure carefully before proceeding.
Is Stfxe Xtension a lender?
No. Stfxe Xtension is a referral and information service. We connect you with a network of licensed lenders across Canada. We do not lend money directly. Our role is to help you find a lender that matches your needs.
What provinces and territories do you serve?
We operate across Canada, including Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Quebec, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Prince Edward Island, Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut. Our focus is Saskatchewan, but we connect Canadians nationwide.
Is it safe to apply online?
Yes. Our application process uses industry-standard encryption to protect your personal and financial information. Never share your banking password or PIN. Legitimate lenders will never ask for these. Always apply through secure, official channels.
Can I borrow more than $3,000?
Our network offers payday loans between $100 and $3,000 CAD. If you need a larger amount, you may want to explore other borrowing options, such as personal loans or lines of credit from traditional banks. A payday loan is designed for short-term, urgent needs.
