Who is YourMortgage.com.au?
YourMortgage.com.au is a digital publisher whose primary purpose is to help everyday Australians save money. Whether it be to help people get those savings ‘up-front’ when they buy something, or the cumulative savings made over time which help people to build their future position, YourMortgage.com.au was born out of the growing need for practical and common sense ways to save.
YourMortgage.com.au is part of the Firstmac Group. Firstmac is a challenger in the market with more than $12 billion in loans under management. Over the last 40 years, Firstmac has provided over 100,000 home loans to everyday Australians. International ratings agency Standard & Poor's awards Firstmac its highest possible ranking for loan servicing. Being part of the Firstmac Group means that YourMortgage.com.au has a number of ‘sister’ brands including the online lender, ‘Loans.com.au’. The separation of editorial content and commercial interests in the context of the broader group is paramount for YourMortgage.com.au. This means that it takes proactive steps to manage group commercial influence over the YourMortgage.com.au operation. This can be read about further in our published Conflicts of Interest declaration on the YourMortgage.com.au website.
In essence, YourMortgage.com.au sister brands will be treated in the same manner as any other product provider looking to connect with the YourMortgage.com.au audience. If the Savings editorial team judge that products from a sister brand do not meet the purpose test of ‘helping consumers save money’, then they will not be included in editorial content.
Our Licensing & Authorisations
YourMortgage.com.au operates under an Australian Financial Services License (AFSL) and as an Australian Credit License Number 515843. These licensing regimes require material effort to ensure that YourMortgage.com.au remains within their strict compliance frameworks – a responsibility which YourMortgage.com.au takes very seriously.
Any information is intended to be general in nature. It is not intended to be specific to an individual’s personal circumstances. And whilst we will create and provide access to handy tools such as calculators, infographs and succinct tables to help the audience make better decisions to help them save money, YourMortgage.com.au will never recommend a single product as being appropriate to an individual’s specific and personal needs and circumstances. YourMortgage.com.au encourages members of its audience to speak with a financial adviser should they wish to discuss their own personal circumstances and needs.
What Services are offered?
YourMortgage.com.au operates as an Australian Financial Services Licensee Number 515843 to provide general financial product advice and deal in deposit and payment products such as term deposits and savings accounts.

Who is responsible for the financial services provided?
YourMortgage.com.au operates as an Australian Financial Services Licensee Number 515843 under the Corporations Act and Australian Credit Licensee Number 515843 under the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009 to provide the services outlined in this Financial Services and Credit Guide.
Under the Corporations Act, YourMortgage.com.au may provide general financial product advice to you even though it does not deal directly with you. YourMortgage.com.au content may be distributed to you through its website and other digital channels such as social media, and where consent is held or obtained, email.
General advice provided by YourMortgage.com.au does not constitute personal advice as it does not take into account your financial situation, needs and objectives. YourMortgage.com.au’s credit licence authorisation requires it to provide you with a credit guide setting out the information in this document.
Does YourMortgage.com.au have any potential conflicts of interest that may influence it?
YourMortgage.com.au content will always be researched, written and appropriately approved according to regulatory requirements, journalistic methods and in an objective manner in order to identify the money saving opportunities and products that it judges are worthy of consideration for its audience, consistent with its purpose of "helping people save money”.
Content is curated on which people in the community are searching for answers. If this content generates opportunities for the YourMortgage.com.au team to connect the ensuing audience to products that it believes align with the contextual purpose of the content, then it will publish those products and consider a commercial relationship with the product provider/s. Importantly, YourMortgage.com.au often publishes products which have no commercial relationship in place with a product provider.
Additionally, products provided by the Firstmac Group shall be assessed using the same journalistic methods as those of any other product provider and, like any other third party, shall only be included within YourMortgage.com.au editorial content where those products are judged by the non-commercial YourMortgage.com.au teams as good savings options for the audience.
