About Us

Moneyfacts - About us

Moneyfacts is the leading independent financial information provider in the UK. Since 1988, we've been providing impartial information to financial services professionals which has helped thousands of customers get the best deal on their mortgages, savings accounts, credit cards, loans and other personal finance products.
Moneyfacts.co.uk Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority (FSA). Our FSA permissions allow us to introduce you to other regulated firms, but not to sell products direct or to give advice. The products we deal with which are regulated by FSA are investments, mortgages and insurance products. Our other products (personal loans, credit cards and domestic utilities) are not regulated by FSA.

What We Do 

Every day, Moneyfacts’ dedicated team of researchers monitor thousands of personal finance products available in the UK. Whether it's a launch of a new product, a change in its terms or conditions or a withdrawal, our team is on the front line and are in the best place to truly know what's going on in the financial services world. Our Customer Charter sets out what we believe in and how this benefits you.

Our data is trusted throughout the financial industry. Every major bank and building society in the UK subscribes to our data service for accurate and comprehensive market analysis, and even the Bank of England uses our data too.
We also supply the majority of the national and regional press and many well known financial and consumer websites with Best Buy charts - and our experts are regularly called upon by the likes of the BBC and national press to provide professional comment and opinion.

Making a Best Buy

In the complicated world of finance, we understand how daunting it can be to choose the right product for your needs, but our Best Buy charts give a unique snapshot of the best products available in the market.

With our researchers regularly scouring the whole of the personal finance market on a daily basis, they are ideally placed to identify what the top products are, and compile between six and ten best products on a rolling basis.

• Our best buys are based on what's best for the consumer - we receive no payment for inclusion in our Best Buy charts
• Each product chosen is sourced from the whole of the market, so you can be sure that we've not been selective in our choices
• Every Best Buy product we choose is always available to everyone and not restricted to either local residents or intermediaries

Moneyfacts.co.uk

In a world where independent financial advice comes at a premium, we really are a consumer champion. Moneyfacts.co.uk was launched in 2000 and is the UK's leading independent financial comparison website - a free to use one-stop finance shop tried and tested by around half a million users each and every month, who use us to find and research personal finance products online.

Other comparison websites get paid to include products in their Best Buys, "Editor's Choices" or "Most Popular Products". We don’t. That's why you can be sure that a Moneyfacts Best Buy really is the best product in that market for you, the consumer.

We’ve described How we Operate because we want to be upfront and honest about what we do and how we do it.
