Before You Apply, Have This Ready
To make your application fast and smooth, you generally need to:
- Be at least 18 years old

- Hold an active Canadian bank account
- Have a valid email address or phone number
There is no minimum credit score — all credit types are considered, including bad credit.

Is BorrowNow.ca Safe to Use?
Yes. BorrowNow.ca is a free lead-referral service, not a lender. We help Canadians find personal loans, emergency loans, bad-credit loans, and installment loans by matching your application with our lender network. BorrowNow.ca will never ask you for your banking information — the matched lender handles income verification securely through IBV. Be careful not to borrow more than you can comfortably pay back.

Get Started With Confidence

Here is exactly what the first five minutes look like once you get started: a short form (who you are, where you work, how much you need), a secure 60-second IBV connection to confirm your income — read-only, never a credit check — and then a real offer with the APR, every fee, and the total repayment cost in writing. Nothing commits you until you sign, and walking away from an offer costs nothing and affects nothing. If the numbers fit, sign electronically and the e-Transfer is often same-day; if they don”t, you”ve spent five minutes learning your options. Either outcome beats wondering.
