It is free to the borrower and monetized through referral arrangements, so the set of lenders it covers, and any ranking, can reflect those relationships.

What to verify before you rely on it
In short: Offers comparison plus a rate/refinancing diagnosis; Free to the borrower; monetized through referral; Confirm which lenders are covered and which are excluded; Verify any indicated rate directly with a dated quotation.
Whatever the category, establish three things before you rely on a provider: what kind of business it actually is (a licensed broker, a portal, a referral or media business, a manager, or an independent professional), how it is paid (by you, by the seller or lender, or through referral), and whether its advice is therefore independent of the transaction it is recommending. Ask for fees in writing, verify any licence and disciplinary record through the official registries, and treat a free service as one paid by someone else — usually an advertiser, a lender, or the seller. An English-language website tells you nothing about representation, so confirm whose interests the provider serves in your specific deal.
