Financial Education
Members of the Canadian Payday Loan Association recognize the importance of financial education and are committed to empowering their customers with financial capability.
This CPLA portal provides consumers the opportunity to access many resources designed to educate them of their rights and responsibilities and of the benefits and risks of financial services. The links provide a learning path to budgeting, savings tips, credit tips, credit resources, calculators, checklists and so much more.
Understanding financial principles, loan terms and credit helps Canadians become financially aware.
