Payday loan cost is regulated provincially (e.g. $15 per $100 in Ontario). For short-term use only.

GoDay is a Canadian-owned online lender founded in 2012 and headquartered in Toronto. It specializes in fast, fully online payday and short-term loans from $100 to $1,500, with funds delivered by Interac e-Transfer at any time of day, including evenings, weekends, and holidays. The entire application takes about five minutes and most approved applicants receive their money within minutes.

GoDay is licensed in the provinces where it operates and uses secure instant bank verification instead of paperwork. It serves borrowers across the credit spectrum, focusing on current income rather than credit score alone, which makes it accessible to people who are turned down by banks. As with all payday loans, the cost is high relative to the term, so a GoDay loan is best used for genuine short-term emergencies and repaid on the scheduled date.
