Protect what matters and start married life on the same page — build a clear, legally sound prenup online, together, without the lawyer price tag.
A prenuptial agreement — also called a marriage contract — is a written agreement two people sign before marriage. It sets out how property, debts, and support would be handled if the relationship ends, so you're deciding together, calmly and in advance, rather than leaving it to default provincial rules.
It isn't about planning to fail. For most couples it's a conversation that builds trust, protects what each person brought in, and gives you both peace of mind to move forward. See how a prenup can bring you closer →

Yes. When made properly — in writing, signed, with full financial disclosure and (ideally) independent legal advice for each person — prenuptial agreements are recognized across Canadian provinces. Jointly's process is built around those requirements.
Independent legal advice isn't strictly mandatory everywhere, but it strongly protects your agreement from being challenged later. Jointly does the heavy lifting up front so any lawyer review is faster — and far less expensive.
Learning and exploring is free. Building your full agreement is a flat $429 for six months of access — typically a fraction of what two lawyers drafting from scratch would charge. See the full cost breakdown.
It can cover property division, spousal support, businesses, pensions, debts, pets, and how it coordinates with your wills. It generally can't pre-decide child support or parenting arrangements, which courts assess in the child's best interests at the time.
Most couples complete the guided sections in under an hour, then take their time talking things through. Aim to finalize well before the wedding — a rushed, last-minute prenup is easier to challenge.
Not at all — you'd create a postnuptial agreement instead, which works much the same way. Jointly supports those too.
