Evaluate
From there, we partner with experts, including those in the startup industry, to source the best prospects, whom we evaluate for best fit.
Partner

We’ve partnered with the non-profit Credit Counselling Society (CCS) and the Credit Counselling Service of Atlantic Canada, Inc. These organizations now offer free credit counselling, free access to CCS webinars and debt management services to plan members.
Plan members have access to one-on-one financial counselling with an accredited financial counsellor. The appointments are free, confidential and have no impact on a plan member’s credit report.
Plan members also have access to the Debt Management Program*. This program helps plan members consolidate debts into one monthly payment they can afford. It can help them become debt-free in a reasonable amount of time – without permanently impacting their credit or record.
*Fees may apply for the debt management product.
