About FinanceApp.ca

A free Canadian personal-finance workspace, part of the MITEY network.

Who we are

FinanceApp.ca is a free set of Canadian financial calculators and a private planning workspace, run as part of the MITEY network of personal-finance sites. It is not a bank, lender, brokerage or financial adviser. It explains and calculates; decisions and advice belong with you and a licensed professional.

What we publish

20 pages of tools and a toolbox of 22 more from the MITEY calculation engines, which the network's specialist sites also use. Mortgage maths uses Canadian semi-annual compounding; rules come from OSFI, CMHC, the provinces, Service Canada and the CRA; rates from the Bank of Canada. Each page shows the date its rules were checked.

Editorial standards

  • No invented people, reviews, user counts, awards or partner lenders.
  • Every rate and rule has a source and a date; estimates are labelled as estimates.
  • When a rule changes we update the module that holds it and note it in the methodology changelog.

How the site is paid for

The tools are free and carry no ads for financial products. If you ask for help through a form, your message goes to the MITEY network team, who may refer you to a licensed professional when you ask them to. The site has long shown a phone line for its concierge mortgage team (+1 587-415-7110).

Mitey leans on the page edge and gestures toward the content.
Mitey is the network's guide, not its adviser. He points at the numbers and the sources.
