Compare, Save, Claim
Track gluten-free product price differentials and simplify your Canadian tax deductions for medical expenses.
Coming to the App Store
GF Pricechecker is being developed as an iOS application, to be made available at no cost, and completely ad-free on the App Store.
Why GF PriceChecker Exists
For Canadians diagnosed with celiac disease, a gluten-free diet is a medical necessity — not a lifestyle choice. Gluten-free staples routinely cost 100–500% more than their conventional equivalents, creating a significant and ongoing financial burden for patients and their families.
A Medical Requirement
Canada's Medical Expense Tax Credit (METC) provides partial financial relief — but only for the price differential between gluten-free and regular products, and only with receipts to prove it.
A Complex Claim Process
Claiming the METC requires retaining every receipt, calculating the price differential for each product, and submitting detailed records at tax time — a process most Canadians with celiac disease find too complex to use effectively.
Celiac Canada Advocacy
Celiac Canada is actively lobbying the federal government to replace the METC with a simple, flat refundable tax credit of $1,000 per adult and $600 per child — eliminating the administrative burden entirely. Petition e-6853, supported by 33,000 Canadians, was presented in Parliament in February 2026.
GF PriceChecker fully supports this effort. We genuinely hope this app becomes redundant — and soon. Until it does, it's here to help.
