About Us - FeeOnlyFinancial.ca

Mission and What We Do

FeeOnlyFinancial.ca is an independent directory and educational resource built to help Canadians find trustworthy, transparent financial planners.

We curate a national list of Fee-Only Planners and Fee-Based Advisors who prioritize client interests over commissions — we do not sell rankings or paid placements.

Our mission is simple: make it easier for Canadians to connect with ethical, qualified professionals for financial advice.

Who We Serve

We serve:

  • Everyday Canadians seeking honest, conflict-free financial advice.
  • Retirees looking to preserve and grow their wealth.
  • Young professionals starting their financial journey.
  • Families planning for education, housing, or legacy.

How We Vet Advisors

Advisors listed on FeeOnlyFinancial.ca are reviewed based on:

  • Professional credentials (CFP®, CFA®, CIM®, etc.).
  • Online reputation and client feedback.
  • Fee structure transparency (Fee-Only or Fee-Based).
  • Website usability and clarity.
  • Fiduciary status and regulatory history.
