Free comparison

What would you like us to compare?

Takes about two minutes. We check the retailers that actually service your address.

If you haven't compared in the last 12 months, you could be paying too much.

Energy retailers count on one thing: that you won't check. Rates change every year, discounts quietly expire, and the "loyalty" plan you've been on since you moved in is almost never their best offer. Meanwhile, the plan that suits your home depends on things no ad will tell you — your postcode, your meter type, your usage pattern, even whether you've got solar on the roof.

Comparify puts a real person on it. Share a few details about your home, and an Aussie-based advisor compares electricity and gas plans available at your address — then tells you straight whether switching is worth it.

Takes about 2 minutes. Free, no markup, no obligation.

What you actually get

Honest numbers, before you switch anything

No vague promises about “up to” savings. Here's exactly what an advisor-led energy comparison gives you.

  • Every plan

    benchmarked against the reference price

    Your advisor compares each offer against the government reference price for your distribution zone (the DMO, or the VDO in Victoria), so a big percentage discount can't hide expensive rates.

  • $0

    added to your bill

    You pay the retailer's own advertised price. Our fee comes from the retailer when you switch — never from you, and never as a markup.

  • ~2 min

    to start, then we do the reading

    A few details about your home is all we need. Upload a recent bill and we'll compare against your exact rates and usage instead of a typical household estimate.

  • Stay or switch

    we'll tell you which

    If your current plan is already competitive for your address, that's the recommendation you'll get — even though it earns us nothing.

What we compare

Electricity, gas, or both — checked properly

  • Electricity

    We compare the rates that actually make up your bill — usage rates, daily supply charges, and how each plan stacks up against the government reference price — across retailers available in your postcode.

  • Natural gas

    Gas pricing varies enormously by distribution zone. We check the retailers that service your address and compare real per-megajoule rates and supply charges, not just headline discounts.

  • Electricity + gas together

    Bundling both fuels with one retailer can be convenient and sometimes cheaper — but the best electricity retailer in your area often isn't the best for gas. We'll compare both ways and tell you which combination wins.

  • Solar households

    Got panels? The cheapest plan on paper can be the wrong plan for you. We weigh feed-in tariffs against usage rates to find the plan that suits how much you export.

  • Moving house?

    Switching is easiest at moving time — and we can organise your connections at the new place so the power's on when you arrive. Electricity, gas and internet in one conversation.

How it works

Three simple steps to better value

Sorted in three steps — the same advisor-led process as our health insurance comparison, just for your power and gas.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us about your home

    Your address, whether you rent or own, roughly what you're paying now, and whether you've got solar. Two minutes, no bill required (though a recent bill helps us be precise).

  2. Step 2

    An advisor compares plans for your address

    We check the retailers that actually service your postcode and compare plans on total annual cost — usage rates, supply charges, conditional discounts, and solar feed-in tariffs — not just the headline offer.

  3. Step 3

    We switch you, or we tell you to stay

    If there's a better deal, we handle the switch — no paperwork, no disconnection, no visit needed in most cases. Your new retailer takes over behind the scenes. And if your current plan is already competitive, we'll say so.

Bill scan

Upload your bill and we'll read the fine print for you

Optional, but it's the difference between a typical-household estimate and a comparison built on your actual rates and usage.

What we pull off it
  • Your usage rates and daily supply charge
  • How much energy you actually used, per quarter
  • Any discount and when its benefit period ends
  • Your solar feed-in tariff, if you export

Your bill is only used to run your comparison, it's stored securely, and you can skip this step entirely — we'll compare on typical usage for a home like yours instead.

What your advisor checks

The fine print, read for you

  • Your postcode's real market.

    Energy plans and prices are set by distribution zone. Every comparison we run is specific to your address — never a national "average" that doesn't apply to you.

  • The reference price, decoded.

    "20% off" means nothing until you know what it's off. We compare every plan against the government reference price for your area so discounts can't hide bad rates.

  • Conditional discounts and catches.

    Pay-on-time discounts that vanish the month you're late. Rates that jump after a 12-month "benefit period". We flag the conditions before they cost you.

  • Supply charges, not just usage rates.

    A low usage rate with a high daily supply charge can cost more overall — especially for smaller households. We compare the total annual cost for a home like yours.

  • Concessions and rebates.

    If you hold a concession card, some plans and rebates work harder for you than others. Tell your advisor and they'll factor it in.

Switching is protected

The risky part isn't switching — it's not checking

Changing retailer sounds like a hassle worth avoiding. In practice it's one of the most protected transactions you'll make.

  • Your power is never turned off

    A switch is an account change only. The same poles, wires and pipes keep serving your home and there's no interruption to supply — no technician, no disconnection.

  • You get a cooling-off period

    Australian energy rules give you a cooling-off window after signing up to a new market contract. Change your mind inside it and the switch is cancelled at no cost.

  • Everything in writing before it starts

    Your new retailer must send you the plan's rates, charges and any conditions before your contract begins. Your advisor walks you through it first.

  • Licensed retailers only

    We only compare retailers authorised to sell energy in Australia and bound by the national energy rules — including the hardship protections that come with them.

  • An ombudsman behind you

    Every state has a free, independent energy ombudsman. If something ever goes wrong with your retailer, you have somewhere to take it — and your advisor will point you there.

Why Comparify

Australian-based expert advisors, not an offshore call-centre

Comparison with a person on your side — the same promise behind our health insurance comparison, applied to energy.

Plays silently as you scroll — tap “Tap for sound” to hear it.

  • Real advisors, Aussie-based

    One person, on a direct line — not a sales floor reading scripts.

  • Same price as going direct

    Retailers pay us a referral fee when you switch; you pay exactly the retailer's advertised price. Nothing is ever added to your bill.

  • We'll tell you straight

    If staying put is your best move, that's what we'll recommend. An honest "don't switch" costs us money — we're fine with that.

  • Switching is painless

    No disconnection, no technician for a standard switch, nothing owed to us. Your new retailer handles the handover and your old one sends a final bill. That's it.
