Our Mission
RateBuddy.ca was founded with a simple mission: to empower Canadians with the information they need to find the best financial products and save money. We believe that navigating the world of mortgages, credit cards, loans, and investments shouldn't be confusing or overwhelming. Every penny counts, and finding the right rate can make a big difference.
What We Do
We strive to provide up-to-date rate information and feature comparisons for a wide range of Canadian financial products, including:
-
Mortgage Rates(Fixed & Variable)
-
Credit Cards(Rewards, Cash Back, Travel, Low Interest)
-
Banking Products(High-Interest Savings Accounts, Chequing Accounts, GICs)
-
Loans(Personal Loans, Lines of Credit, HELOCs)
-
Investment Platforms(Robo-Advisors, Online Brokers)
-
Insurance Products(Life, Home, Auto)
We gather information from various banks, credit unions, and financial institutions across Canada to present it in an easy-to-understand format.
We may not list every product or provider in Canada. Our goal is to make the options we cover easier to understand and compare.
Why Choose RateBuddy.ca?
Independence
We aim to provide unbiased comparisons to help you choose what's truly best for your situation.
Clarity
We break down complex financial products and jargon into plain language.
Comprehensive
We cover a wide range of products from numerous Canadian institutions.
Canadian Focused
Our information is tailored specifically for the Canadian market.
Our reviews and RateBuddy Insights are based on product analysis: the benefits, the fees, and the pros and cons. Paid advertisements and commissions cannot change those findings. You deserve to understand both what a product offers and where it may fall short.
How we make money — and share a little with you
Free for you to use
RateBuddy earns money through advertising, sponsorships and commissions from some of the banks and providers featured on our site. A partner may pay us when you click a link or apply for a product through RateBuddy.
That income helps us run the site. It does not buy a better review or change our product analysis.
Extra cash for your wallet
On selected offers, we share part of that commission with you as a cash rebate, paid by Interac e-Transfer.
Your RateBuddy rebate is extra. It does not replace or reduce the bank’s welcome bonus shown with the offer. The bank’s offer and the RateBuddy rebate each have their own terms.
