What Moves Your Rate

APR depends on debt-to-income, history with our team, and whether the loan is secured.

The quoted 8.9% applies to members with strong the platform relationships and a good credit file. Score bands move the rate between 8.9% and 19.9%. For comparison, a $10,000 loan at 8.9% over 3 years costs about $318 per month.

Securing with savings or a GIC can cut the rate by 2 points, and using the exact same payment setup as a sascu credit card keeps reporting smart.

Key facts at a glance

Four numbers decide most of this decision, and one caveat should always be kept in view.

The official methodology is detailed in the sascu overview.

Funding data shows 24-hour median funding and a 1.9% delinquency rate, well under the peer average of 3.4%.

Consumer protection and credit-union rules are published by the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada.

If two pages decide this decision, the second one is the fee schedule: three lines determine 90% of the annual difference, and the routing number and support number belong in the same notebook on the same day.
