Your Money Saving Journey Starts Here

Money is a medium of exchange.

When you give someone your money, you get something in return.

But are you getting a fair deal? Can you do better?

Since launching moneyGenius.ca (formerly HowToSaveMoney.ca) back in 2010, our mission has always been to provide the best tips, tools, and resources to help you maximize your money.

Media spotlight

The [moneyGenius] website has created a database of [329] financial-product reviews – bank accounts, mortgages, GICs and more. This is notable because as far as I’m aware, no one has ever invested the time to review basic, everyday financial products.

Most of you probably have something better to do than research the best credit cards, but if you were told another card could be earning you way more travel points, wouldn't you google that pronto? Luckily, this blogger has already done the research, leaving you with more free time to online shop.
