MEMBERSHIP

Become a Member

Join Mortgage Professionals Canada and connect your organization with the national association representing Canada’s mortgage industry.

Association membership is offered on a corporate basis only.

For mortgage brokerages

The provincial licensing model is followed. Fees are calculated based on the number of licensed individuals within the company.

Why are dues based on licence counts?

From its inception, members have asked that any membership fee structure follow a model that ensures fairness in how dues are distributed. Several models have been reviewed over the years, including mortgage volume, staff count, etc. It was ultimately decided that the fairest and most verifiable approach is to use the number of licensed individuals. This model aligns with provincial regulators, and with our primary role, which was, and remains today, to act as an advocate for the interests of the mortgage broker channel.

For other industry participants

Dual-Membership with the AMBA

A partnership between the Alberta Mortgage Brokers Association (AMBA) and Mortgage Professionals Canada (MPC) was created in response to stakeholder feedback asking for a more unified approach to association representation.

Streamlining key areas such as education, government relations, consumer outreach and member communications drive efficiencies, enhance member value and provide a strong and united industry voice.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Questions About Membership

Learn how Mortgage Professionals Canada's brokerage-based membership model works, including how membership dues are calculated, who is included and how mortgage professionals can access membership through their brokerage.

1. Why is MPC membership brokerage-based?

MPC membership is brokerage-based because it reflects how the mortgage industry itself is structured.

Regulators license firms. Insurers contract with firms. Mortgage professionals operate through firms. MPC membership follows that same general structure.

2. Why are MPC membership dues based on the number of licensed mortgage professionals?

MPC uses the number of licensed mortgage professionals as a consistent way to calculate membership dues for brokerages of different sizes.

Using licensed mortgage professional counts provides a basis that is:

Transparent — brokerages can understand how their membership dues are calculated.
Proportional — larger brokerages contribute more than smaller brokerages.
Verifiable — licensed mortgage professional counts can be confirmed through regulatory information.

3. Why can’t a brokerage simply choose one or two people to become MPC members?

Allowing a brokerage to participate through only one or two individuals would create an imbalance between otherwise similar brokerages.

Consider two brokerages that each have 500 licensed mortgage professionals. If one participated through only one individual while the other supported membership across all 500, organizations of essentially the same size would be participating on very different terms.

The brokerage-based membership model is intended to ensure that similarly sized brokerages participate on reasonably comparable terms.

4. Is MPC membership mandatory for individual mortgage professionals?

No. The brokerage decides whether to become an MPC member. The number of licensed mortgage professionals is simply the basis used to calculate the brokerage’s membership dues.

The brokerage can decide how it handles that cost within its own business.

5. Can I join MPC individually if my brokerage isn’t a member?

MPC membership is generally accessed through a member brokerage.

If you would like your brokerage to become an MPC member, our membership team can work with you and your brokerage leadership to explain the membership structure, benefits and value of membership.

6. Why does MPC use a brokerage-based membership model?

The brokerage-based membership model allows MPC to bring together brokerages and mortgage professionals under one national membership structure, while sharing the cost of supporting the association in a transparent and proportional way.

MPC currently brings together more than 1,000 member companies and over 15,000 mortgage professionals.
