RVU, which owns Uswitch, Confused.com and Money.co.uk, has agreed to acquire online mortgage broker Mojo Mortgages.

"Owning every part of the process means we can improve their experience from start to finish.

“Three years ago, we started Mojo with a clear vision to make everyone feel more confident about finding a great mortgage deal.
"This significant next step in our journey makes that vision a reality on a scale we could have only dreamt of back then.
"We'll look to revitalise the UK mortgage ecosystem while creating remarkable digital experiences for both our colleagues and our customers.
“Alongside RVU, we'll be at the forefront of positive change for the UK mortgage market. We can't wait to get going.”
