TaxTips.ca Acquisition Opportunity

Overview

Big news for us! After years of building TaxTips.ca into one of Canada’s most trusted free sources for tax and financial information, we’ve decided it’s time to sell.

We started TaxTips.ca in 2002 as a public service, because there was very little Canadian tax information available online. By 2004 we discovered that we could derive some revenue from the site with Google Adsense.

We’ve loved helping Canadians with free tax tips and calculators, but it’s time for us to take a new direction, partly due to our advancing age.

TaxTips.ca has become a go-to destination for individuals, professionals, businesses, and even CRA agents seeking reliable guidance on Canadian tax and financial topics.

In addition to its extensive library of articles, TaxTips.ca is recognized for its powerful income tax calculators. These are widely used across Canada for tax planning. The very detailed Canadian Income Tax & RRSP Savings Calculator, which is used for tax planning and to verify tax returns, is also used by provincial tax policy analysts. There is no other tax calculator that will accurately calculate Canadian 2025 taxes in 2024.
