The Safe and Trusted Canada website is presented in English. You may use your browser's translation feature to view the website in your preferred language. Safe and Trusted Canada creates and maintains Information Only Profiles using publicly available business information. Safe and Trusted Canada goes beyond business names, reviews, and star ratings. Consumers can find Canadian businesses by location, category, services, and credentials, including licensing, liability insurance and WCB coverage where applicable. Business profiles may also include images, videos, documents, promotions and employment opportunities with direct links to the business website. See More About Safe and Trusted Canada

Safe and Trusted Canada uses Cities, Towns and Trade Areas as a way to communicate effectively with Consumers and Businesses. A business in a city means it serves that city. A business in a trade area serves that city and the surrounding area. Trade areas allow businesses to expand their reach provincially and across Canada. A Trade Area designation includes the city name and a TA designation. 

A business owner or authorized representative may request removal of an Information Only Profile at any time if the business is no longer in operation. Business owners may also manage their listing at no charge through a free Basic Account. The Basic Account provides a username and password, giving the business owner control of the information displayed in the listing and the ability to keep it up to date. See Your Profile Options as a Business. 

To ensure accuracy, verified accounts give businesses more control over what they offer. A verified account automatically expands the Basic Plan. The number of primary categories and subcategories is unlimited. As an example, the Primary Category may be hotels. Other Primary categories may be Accommodation and Travel; subcategories may be Hotels, Motels, and other amenities. All Users can manage their account. All Subscription types can link their website and profile through account access, giving the business greater marketing potential. In addition, each listing is measured. Every time you or someone else opens the profile, it registers in your account. There is no more guesswork. By using the embed link in your account profile, you can link your profile and your website. This lets the business owner see everything in one place at all times, at no charge. They need to use the Embed Link from their account to complete the link. Each Information Only profile will include a list of possible categories and subcategories that the business can add to its listing. See What We Place in Every Listing.

Consumers can search for a business by business location, phone number, city, or trade area, credentials, and more.   See the YouTube Video

Every business listed on Safe and Trusted Canada appears in its provincial trade area, city or town. Example: a hotel in Alberta will be seen in Alberta. Consumers can still search by city and town. Basic, Plus, Standard and Advanced Accounts receive placement in their Provincial Trade Area and one Local Trade Area. Extended Visibility Options are available for $199 per year for Standard, Advanced, and Professional subscriptions. Setup is free, and you'll instantly get in front of consumers before everyone else, except the first business in your area and category to sign up. The business owner is always in control and can leave at any time. They have their own username and password. 

Extended Provincial Trade Areas can be used within the province for the business or, if allowed, interprovincially. A lawyer in Saskatoon may serve Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver or Toronto. A medical professional may serve numerous areas in their province or, as a specialist, attract consumers from other provinces. You can sell a product in your small-town location and expand across Canada with our system. 

Account setup may take up to an hour, depending on your account type. The Professional Plan is the most difficult because it lets you upload 10 YouTube videos, 20 images, up to 5 PDFs, and direct links to all parts of your website. It also includes direct links to any part of your website. With the business owner's permission, we will transfer all permitted information the owner provides so consumers have the information you want to make available. We can pull it directly from your website or other sources, but the business owner must permit us to do so. We normally charge our standard setup fee of $99.00, but for a limited time, it is free. Of course, you can do it yourself. See How?

The Provincial Trade Area is automatically based on the business's home province. The business owner can set Local Trade Areas. If you are a contractor, the additional trade areas must be in your home province. If you are a business that serves all of Canada, additional trade areas may be selected elsewhere in Canada. All businesses are listed by subscription type and activation date. Additional Trade Areas are not fixed and may be moved at any time by the owner of the business through account access.
