📘 Introduction

EMT Cash (emtcash.ca) is a loan referral platform that connects Canadians with licensed third-party lenders. We are not a direct lender and we do not make credit decisions. Our website contains informational content about payday loans, e-Transfer loans, and short-term financial products available in Canada.

This Editorial Policy explains the standards we follow when creating, publishing, and updating content on our website. Our goal is to provide Canadians with clear, accurate, and helpful financial information that empowers them to make informed decisions.

📚 Sources & References

To ensure our content is accurate and trustworthy, we rely on authoritative and credible sources, including:

  • The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) — for consumer rights and payday loan regulations
  • Provincial government websites — for jurisdiction-specific payday lending laws (e.g., Ontario's Payday Loans Act, Alberta's Payday Loans Regulation)

  • Licensed lender disclosures — for product-specific information on rates, fees, and terms
  • Industry publications — from reputable Canadian financial media outlets

We do not use anonymous sources for factual claims. When data or statistics are referenced, we cite the original source directly or provide a link to it where possible.

💼 Advertising & Commercial Relationships

EMT Cash is a referral service. We may receive compensation when a visitor is connected with a lender through our platform. This is how we sustain our free-to-use service for Canadian borrowers.

However, our commercial relationships do not influence our editorial content in any of the following ways:

  • We do not write positively about lenders because they are commercial partners
  • We do not suppress negative information about lending risks to protect commercial interests
  • We do not alter factual information about rates, fees, or regulations based on advertiser requests
  • We do not allow lenders to approve, edit, or veto content before publication
🔒

Editorial independence: Our editorial team operates independently from our sales and partnerships team. Content decisions are made entirely based on what is accurate, helpful, and in the best interest of our readers.
