About RateZip

Rate intelligence, since 2007.

Transparency for the rate market.

RateZip was created in late 2007 by Paul Knag - a former mortgage executive at American Home Mortgage and founder of online lender MortgageSelect.com. When AHM fell in the financial crisis, RateZip was born.

The mission hasn't changed: bring transparency to shopping for financial products online. Mortgages, personal loans, deposit accounts - the numbers, in the open.

Today, over 1,500,000 people visit RateZip.com every month to browse rates or choose a bank or lender. Hundreds of banks, brokers, and financial institutions use RateZip to reach them.
