How we write our guides
Where the information comes from, how we check it, and what to do if you find a mistake.
Our guides are for people who need money soon: a rent payment, a car repair, a vet bill. Each one starts with what you can try before borrowing, then explains when a loan makes sense and what to check before you sign.
Sources
Programs, deadlines and practical rules, such as a utility's payment arrangements or a tenancy notice, come from the official page that publishes them, and we link to it so you can read it yourself. If we can't confirm something from a source like that, we leave it out.
Reviews
Every guide is checked before it goes up. The date at the top of each guide shows when it was last reviewed. When a program or rule we describe changes, we update the page and the date.
The numbers on this site
Loan amounts, rates, terms and payments are examples or typical ranges from lenders in our network, for illustration only. The lender that makes you an offer shows you the actual amount, rate, fees and payment dates before you sign.
What our guides aren't
Urgent Loans is not a lender, and our guides are general information, not legal or financial advice. Urgent Loans is run by Achilles Finance, a Montreal company.
