About Self-Employed Loans in Alberta
Self-employed borrowers in Alberta — including freelancers, contractors, and small business owners — can access personal loans through our network. Lenders evaluate income based on bank statements and other documentation rather than traditional employment records.
In Alberta, personal loans fall under the Consumer Protection Act and lenders offering high-cost credit (32%+ APR) must be licensed by Service Alberta. The federal 35% APR Criminal Rate of Interest cap still applies on top of provincial rules.
To get started, complete our short 2-minute application. We use a soft credit inquiry — this has no impact on your credit score. You only agree to a specific loan offer if you choose to accept it, at which point the lender may perform a full credit check.
