Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to list my Canadian business on OriginSelect?

Free listings cost $0 forever and include up to 5 products. Pro plans cost CAD $26.99/month and include verified badges, up to 50 products, coupon banners, and priority placement. No setup fees or contracts.

What types of Canadian businesses can register?

OriginSelect welcomes all values-driven businesses in Canada, including Fully Canadian brands (owned and manufactured in Canada), Canadian Manufacturing (international brands manufactured in Canada), Canadian Operations (international brands with significant Canadian presence), women-owned, Indigenous-owned, family-owned, sustainable, organic, and brands creating positive social impact across all product categories and provinces.

What Canadian classifications are available?

We recognize three Canadian classifications: Fully Canadian (Canadian owned AND manufactured - 100% Canadian), Canadian Manufacturing (international brand, manufactured in Canada), and Canadian Operations (international brand with significant Canadian operations). These classifications help customers find authentic Canadian-made products and support local manufacturing.

How do I get verified badges for my claims?

After upgrading to Pro (CAD $26.99/mo), submit documentation for your values claims. For example: WBE Canada certification for women-owned, CCAB certification for Indigenous-owned, Canada Organic certification for organic products, business registration showing Canadian ownership/manufacturing for Canadian classifications. Our team reviews and approves within 3-5 business days. Once verified, badges automatically appear on your profile and product listings.

Can I upgrade or downgrade my plan?

Yes! You can upgrade from Free to Pro anytime and changes take effect immediately. If you downgrade from Pro to Free, you'll keep Pro features until your current billing period ends. Cancel anytime with no penalties.

How many products can I list?

Free plans can showcase up to 5 "top pick" products. Pro plans (CAD $26.99/mo) get up to 50 products with a dedicated "Top Picks" section. We recommend highlighting your best-sellers and seasonal items to maximize conversions.

What is included in the Pro plan?

Pro (CAD $26.99/mo) includes: Pro badge on your profile, per-claim verified badges (Fully Canadian, Canadian Manufacturing, Canadian Operations, women-owned, Indigenous-owned, sustainable, organic, family-owned, social impact), coupon/discount banner, contact card for wholesale inquiries, dual CTAs (Website + Amazon), up to 50 products with Top Picks section, and priority placement in directory searches.

Do I need a website to register my brand?

No website required for Free listings, but we highly recommend one for credibility and to drive traffic. Pro tier gets more value with a website link, but you can also use Amazon storefronts or social media as your primary CTA if you don't have a website yet.

How does billing work?

Pro plans are billed monthly at CAD $26.99/mo via credit card. You can cancel anytime and your listing will revert to the Free tier at the end of your billing cycle. No long-term contracts or cancellation fees. Free listings remain free forever with no payment information required.

Who can see my brand listing?

Your listing is visible to all OriginSelect visitors in Canada searching for values-driven Canadian products. Customers can find you through value filters (Fully Canadian, Canadian Manufacturing, Canadian Operations, women-owned, Indigenous-owned, family-owned, sustainable, organic, social impact), province searches (Ontario, Quebec, BC, Alberta, etc.), category browsing, and our site-wide search. Pro listings get priority placement in all discovery channels.

How do I cancel my Pro subscription?

To cancel your Pro subscription, email us at admin@originselect.com with your brand name and listing link. We'll process your cancellation within 1-2 business days. You'll retain full Pro access until the end of your current billing period. Your listing will automatically revert to the Free tier after that, maintaining basic visibility without verified badges or Pro features.

What provinces do you serve?

OriginSelect Canada serves all Canadian provinces and territories: Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Labrador, Northwest Territories, Nunavut, and Yukon. We celebrate businesses from coast to coast to coast.

How is OriginSelect Canada different from the Global marketplace?

OriginSelect Canada focuses exclusively on Canadian brands with Canadian connections (Fully Canadian, Canadian Manufacturing, Canadian Operations). The Global marketplace focuses on US-based women-owned, veteran-owned, and sustainable brands. Both marketplaces share the same values-driven mission but serve distinct geographic markets and customer bases.

Need to Cancel Your Subscription?

We're sorry to see you go! If you need to cancel your Pro subscription, we make it easy.

To cancel: Email us at admin@originselect.com with your brand name and listing link. We'll process your cancellation within 1-2 business days.
