Company mission
To help Canadians make better financial decisions.
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 2 million monthly users, RateHub have launched their own in-house brokerage to aid with their mission to help Canadians make better financial decisions.
Despite FinTech being a busy space, RateHub reached a milestone of closing $10 billion 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.”
