Corrections Policy
We publish finance content that people use to make real borrowing decisions, so accuracy isn’t optional — and we treat errors as something to fix in the open, not bury. This page explains what we correct, how to report a problem, and what happens after you do.
Why we have this policy
Lender terms change, sources get updated, and writers are human. A standing corrections process is how a serious publisher stays trustworthy after publishing — it’s the difference between “we said it once and moved on” and “we stand behind every live page.” If something on BizBee is wrong, outdated, or unclear, we want to correct the record.
What we’ll correct
We act on any of the following:
- Factual errors — an incorrect rate range, fee description, eligibility detail, date, name, or number.
- Outdated information — a lender changed its terms, product, or availability and our page hasn’t caught up.
- Misleading framing — wording that is technically defensible but likely to leave a reader with the wrong impression about cost, risk, or qualification.
- Broken or wrong links — including an affiliate or source link pointing to the wrong place.
- Misattributed or unsupported claims — a statement we can’t back to a primary source.
Differences of opinion or methodology (for example, how much weight we give a factor in our lender scoring) aren’t “errors,” but we still want the feedback — it’s how the method on How We Evaluate Lenders improves over time.
How to report an error
Send us:
- The page URL (and the section or sentence, if you can).
- What’s wrong, in your words.
- A source, if you have one — a link to the lender’s current terms or a primary authority makes verification much faster.
Reach the editorial team through our contact page or by email at the address listed there. If you’re a lender flagging an inaccuracy about your own product, say so and point us to your live terms page — we’ll verify against your published terms.
What happens after you report
- Acknowledge. We aim to confirm we received your report within a few business days.
- Verify. We check the claim against primary sources — the lender’s current terms, the Federal Reserve, the SBA, or the CFPB as applicable. We don’t take either side’s word for it without a source.
- Correct. If it’s wrong, we fix it promptly and update the page’s visible “last updated” date.
- Disclose when it matters. For a material correction — one that could have changed a reader’s decision — we add a dated correction note on the page itself so the record is transparent, not silently edited. Minor fixes (a typo, a dead link) are updated without a note.
- Close the loop. If you gave us a way to reach you, we’ll tell you what we changed or why we didn’t.
How we mark a material correction
A material correction appears as a short dated line on the affected page, for example:
Correction (June 2026): An earlier version of this page described a lender’s pricing one way. The lender’s current terms state otherwise; the page has been updated.
We don’t rewrite history quietly. If a fact on a money page was wrong in a way that mattered, the correction stays visible.
Standing behind the reviews
Because lender rankings carry the most weight, a verified error in a lender review or comparison gets priority, and a correction that changes a score triggers a re-check of the affected ranking under our published evaluation method. We’d rather move a lender down (or up) on the record than leave a number we know is wrong.
