What is Beacon?
Updated over a week ago

Founded on the principle that immigration should be a journey of excitement, not uncertainty, Beacon leverages cutting-edge technology to provide comprehensive support for immigrants. Our Super App simplifies the financial and informational hurdles that newcomers face, offering everything from banking solutions to essential resources, all designed to ease the transition into Canadian life.

At Beacon, we believe in empowering immigrants to build successful futures in their new home. Our platform is the first of its kind in Canada, developed by a team of seasoned professionals and immigrants who understand the challenges and opportunities of beginning a new chapter in a new country. Our mission is to make the immigrant journey smoother, more accessible, and more rewarding by providing tailored financial services and support in Canada.

Canada is home to over eight million people born outside of the country and aims to attract millions more in the next five years. However, recent studies show that many immigrants struggle to establish themselves and are leaving Canada in alarming numbers. Beacon exists to help reverse these worrying trends.

Beacon’s initial app, live today, offers a pre-arrival solution that significantly reduces the stress of an immigrant’s first 100 days in Canada. It provides relevant content, customized digital information, and checklists for people before they depart their home country. Beacon Money is one of our first financial products, an innovative, purpose-built approach to solving an immigrant’s financial needs. Our longer-term ambition is to be the one-stop solution for the life-cycle financial needs of our users.

We are dedicated to making your journey to Canada as smooth and rewarding as possible. If you have any questions or need assistance, our friendly customer support team is always here to help.
