A cash advance is a short-term personal loan designed to bridge an unexpected expense between paycheques. The "advance" part of the name reflects the timing — you receive funds today and repay on or after your next pay date.
Unlike a credit-card cash advance (where you pull cash against your card limit), an online cash advance with Payday Hero is a separate short-term loan. We deliver approved funds by Interac e-Transfer to your Canadian bank account, usually within minutes during business hours.

Testimonials
I just wanted to say that I'm very happy with borrowing from Payday Hero. They're easy to work with and are flexible with their payment terms.
An online loan is a fast, hassle-free option designed for Canadians to access funds directly through the internet. The entire process—from application to approval—takes place online, making it a simple way to secure funds.
It's simple! Complete a quick application form online, receive a decision in minutes, and once approved, the funds are deposited straight into your bank account. Typically, you can have the money in less than an hour.
Our online loans offer more flexibility and better terms compared to payday loans. Instead of high fees and short repayment periods, we provide longer, more manageable repayment options tailored to your needs.
Eligibility is based primarily on your income, bank history, and age (you must be at least 18 years old). A soft or hard credit check may be performed as part of underwriting; it will be disclosed before you sign.
Your exact APR, all mandatory fees, and total cost of credit are itemized in your loan agreement before you sign. We disclose this in accordance with the federal Cost of Borrowing (Banks) Regulations and applicable provincial consumer credit law.
If you use online banking, no extra documents are needed. Otherwise, you’ll need to submit a pay stub, void cheque, recent bank statements, and a government-issued ID.
No, we are completely transparent about all fees. You'll know all the costs upfront, including any interest and brokerage fees, before you agree to anything.
Yes! You can repay the loan early without any penalties. In fact, we offer fee discounts for early repayment to help lower the total cost of borrowing.
Once your loan is approved, the funds are deposited directly into your bank account, often within an hour. We aim to offer a fast, convenient solution for your financial needs.
Applying is simple. Just fill out the application form on our website, and we'll guide you through the process from start to finish.
