Borrowing FAQs

Borrowing eligibility requirements

Here are our minimum requirements to be approved for a loan on goPeer.

  • Minimum 18 years of age or older
  • Credit score of 600 (Equifax FICO 8 Score)
  • Annual income of at least $35,000 (Employment insurance not accepted)
  • A debt-to-income ratio of less than 35% (Monthly debt obligations / monthly gross income)
  • No bankruptcy within the past 12 months
  • Must have a Canadian bank account or equivalent
  • Must be a Canadian resident for at least 3 years
  • Must have at least 3 trades on your credit file (credit card, line of credit, auto loan, mortgage, etc.)

If you meet these requirements then please proceed to apply through our website. If unsure, you may  still proceed to apply using our pre-qualification flow, which will verify your eligibility without impacting your credit score. 

Applying for pre-qualification at goPeer will not impact your credit score. Pre-qualification is a soft credit inquiry that allows you to verify your eligibility, view your estimated rate, and get access to your FICO™ Score 8, which is the credit score used by 90% of lenders. This process helps you explore your loan options without affecting your credit.

If you decide to proceed with a full loan application, a hard credit check will be performed. While a hard inquiry may impact your credit score, the effect is usually minor and temporary. The slight dip in your score typically recovers over a short time, and should not discourage you from applying if you’re seriously considering a loan.

The main reason our rates are cheaper than the rates offered by the competition is that we are a peer-to-peer lending company.

Banks use deposits from savers to lend to borrowers and charge high APRs, keeping the profits for themselves.

With us, you get to cut out the banks and borrow directly from fellow Canadians. Most of them are ordinary people wanting to get better interest rates than if they were to put their money in a savings account and so they are happy to accept lower APRs than the banks would charge. As we are internet based, we also don’t have the same overheads as banks do with multiple branches, so this helps keep the costs down.

goPeer charges borrowers an origination fee, the amount of which is dependent on how much you would like to borrow, the repayment term and your personal credit profile. There is nothing to pay up front, the origination fee is deducted from the proceeds of the loan.

When you apply for a loan, we will tell you the fee that applies; it is also included in your APR so that there’s no surprise. No hidden fees.

At goPeer privacy and security is very important to us and is something that we take seriously. We operate a digital business within the financial services sector, necessitating increased consideration and scrutiny. Appropriately our platform has been built upon the principals of Security by Design, meaning that it has been designed from the foundation to be secure.

We implement a multi-layered approach to security, with strict constraints and controls in place for each layer to establish a fortified barrier. Among these layers we incorporate specialised security protocols including bank grade or better encryption of data at rest, in motion, and additional public-key (RSA-4096) encryption of sensitive information. The public-key encryption allows a system collecting sensitive data to encrypt and store it, but not retrieve or decrypt it, ensuring that no system or person, including staff, can decipher it, except for the intended system.

As a securities dealer and the first registered consumer peer-to-peer platform in Canada, we are subject to an annual third-party audit. goPeer has retained Stamped, Chartered Professional Accountant Inc. as it’s auditor.

Further details pertaining to the security and privacy of personal data is disclosed within our Privacy Policy.

Yes, borrowers can repay their loans early without a prepayment penalty. Extra payments can be made conveniently through the goPeer self-serve platform.
