Growth and Revenue Potential for Pineapple
The BMO BrokerEdge™ partnership is anticipated to be a powerful driver for Pineapple's revenue growth, enhancing value for both agents and investors. Access to BMO's home financing products will increase Pineapple agents' reach, enabling them to capture a greater share of Canada's substantial mortgage market, which was valued at nearly $1.8 trillion in 2023.

The Canadian mortgage broker channel continues to expand, with an increasing share of consumers opting for broker services, particularly among first-time homebuyers. This collaboration leverages Pineapple's tech-driven platform, which provides brokers with real-time insights and automated services designed to optimize client experience. By empowering brokers with quick access to product options like those from BMO, Pineapple can capture new market segments, grow its origination volume, and establish its brand further in the high-growth mortgage brokerage space.
As BMO's entry into the broker channel is projected to amplify origination volume across the industry, Pineapple's partnership represents a distinct competitive advantage, giving investors a front-row seat to the continued expansion and modernization of the Canadian mortgage industry. With Canada's population growing at a record pace and demand for housing accelerating, Pineapple and BMO's alliance positions Pineapple to capture both immediate and long-term growth in mortgage origination revenues, further establishing Pineapple as a top choice for consumers, brokers, and investors alike.
Through BMO's BrokerEdge™ platform and Pineapple's advanced tech ecosystem, this partnership sets a new standard in the mortgage brokerage space, offering both flexibility for homebuyers and a compelling growth opportunity for stakeholders.
