Our take
Consumer activity has continued to shift from in-person to online in all categories, and RateHub recognised a need to make financial products accessible online too.
RateHub allows users to compare prices and rates on financial products like mortgages, credit cards and insurance. With more than 2M monthly users, RateHub has launched its own in-house brokerage to aid with its mission to help Canadians make better financial decisions.
Despite FinTech being a busy space, RateHub reached a milestone of closing $10B in funded mortgages in October 2021. Since then, it has received significant investment that will allow it to continue building its momentum and accelerate growth both organically and through acquisitions.
