Tangerine 3-year fixed mortgage rate.
Today’s best 3-year fixed in our network is 3.99%. We access Tangerine’s broker-channel pricing — typically 15-30 bps below posted — and compare it across 100+ lenders.
The network’s best 3-year fixed rate today is approximately 3.99% through the broker channel — about $2,943/month on a $700,000 home with 20% down over 25 years. A 3-year fixed is the hedge term — certainty without locking in a five-year rate at the top of the cycle. The rate you’d be quoted directly is rarely Tangerine’s best — the broker channel typically runs 15-30 bps lower.
The 3-year fixed with Tangerine
Tangerine on this term. Tangerine isn't currently posting a broker-channel 3-year fixed on our rate board, so the rate above is the best 3-year fixed across our 100+ lenders — not Tangerine's own. For this term we shop your file across the full shelf, Tangerine included, and bring back the sharpest fit.
Who it suits. Borrowers who want fixed-rate certainty but don't want to commit to five years when they expect rates to be lower at renewal. It's a popular middle path for renewers in a falling-rate environment and for anyone whose plans (a move, a growing family, a career change) sit roughly three years out.
What drives the rate. The 3-year fixed follows the 3-year Government of Canada bond. When markets price in rate cuts, the 3-year often sits below the 5-year fixed — letting you lock a payment now and re-shop sooner, closer to the bottom of the cycle.
Breaking it early. Like all fixed terms it uses the greater of three months' interest or IRD, but because the term is shorter the IRD window shrinks faster, so the penalty tends to be smaller than a 5-year fixed's by the back half of the term.
How Tangerine prices the broker channel
Scotiabank's online subsidiary (formerly ING Direct Canada). Schedule I bank. Competitive insured mortgage pricing for digitally-comfortable borrowers. Limited branch footprint — almost entirely online + cafe locations.
Tangerine runs two 3-year fixed rate sheets: the consumer rate and a wholesale broker-channel rate a licensed brokerage accesses, usually 15-30 bps lower because the broker handles origination. You can’t reach it by approaching Tangerine yourself. On a $700,000 mortgage, 20 bps is roughly $1,400 a year.

A worked example
On a $700,000 home with 20% down, the mortgage is $560,000. At the network’s best 3-year fixed rate of 3.99% over a 25-year amortization, the payment is about $2,943/month. Go to Tangerine yourself at their consumer rate (~15-30 bps higher) and you’d pay $50-100 more a month for the identical mortgage — which is exactly what the broker channel saves.
