Finder makes money from featured partners, but editorial opinions are our own.
Find the best 🥇
We've compared thousands of products to find the best ones across 26 categories, with more being added all the time.
Our experts have put in the time and effort to research the best products and service providers in Australia. But, the best product for one person isn't going to be the best for everyone. So, in every category we explain how we determine our top picks and how to find the best option for you.
How we choose our top picks depends on the product or category we're comparing. On each of the pages above you will find the detailed methodology.
Finder also runs the Finder Awards where we find the best performing product in each category over a twelve month period or at a given moment in time. Our insights team gather multiple data points on most products each month or quarter, compare each metric to the rest of the market, and apply a score using our Dynamic Scoring System. You can check out the current award winners and how we chose them here.
Why you can trust Finder
At Finder, our experts research the market, compare products and drill down to the important features to find the best products. We've been doing this since 2006 with the mission of helping people make better decisions surrounding their finances. Our team is passionate about the stuff that you might not be and works tirelessly to research complex subjects and what they mean for you.
Our principles underpin everything we write and we fiercely protect our editorial independence. What that means is, everything we write, review and analyse is free from commercial bias.
How we make money
Finder is free to use, and always will be! We don't sell your information to marketers, or harass you with annoying phone calls. Plus, we don't mark up prices or charge additional fees. Our analyses, reviews and opinions are our own.
If you choose to click on certain links or use the phone numbers listed on our site, we may receive a referral fee. But that doesn't stop us from comparing products for which we don't get compensated. Any referral fee is not passed on to you and we don't inflate prices. If you don't click or call, we will not be compensated.

Important information about this website
finder.com.au is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stands by our editorial principles
We try to take an open and transparent approach and provide a broad-based comparison service. However, you should be aware that while we are an independently owned service, our comparison service does not include all providers or all products available in the market.
Some product issuers may provide products or offer services through multiple brands, associated companies or different labeling arrangements. This can make it difficult for consumers to compare alternatives or identify the companies behind the products. However, we aim to provide information to enable consumers to understand these issues.
We make money by featuring products on our site. Compensation received from the providers featured on our site can influence which products we write about as well as where and how products appear on our page, but the order or placement of these products does not influence our assessment or opinions of them, nor is it an endorsement or recommendation for them.
Products marked as 'Top Pick', 'Promoted' or 'Advertisement' are prominently displayed either as a result of a commercial advertising arrangement or to highlight a particular product, provider or feature. Finder may receive remuneration from the Provider if you click on the related link, purchase or enquire about the product. Finder's decision to show a 'promoted' product is neither a recommendation that the product is appropriate for you nor an indication that the product is the best in its category. We encourage you to use the tools and information we provide to compare your options.
Where our site links to particular products or displays 'Go to site' buttons, we may receive a commission, referral fee or payment when you click on those buttons or apply for a product. You can learn more about how we make money.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the order in which they are initially sorted may be influenced by a range of factors including price, fees and discounts; commercial partnerships; product features; and brand popularity. We provide tools so you can sort and filter these lists to highlight features that matter to you.
Please note that the information published on our site should not be construed as personal advice and does not consider your personal needs and circumstances. While our site will provide you with factual information and general advice to help you make better decisions, it isn't a substitute for professional advice. You should consider whether the products or services featured on our site are appropriate for your needs. If you're unsure about anything, seek professional advice before you apply for any product or commit to any plan and read any disclosure documents (such as any Target Market Determination (TMD) and/or Product Disclosure Statement (PDS)) issued by the provider before making a decision.
Providing or obtaining an estimated insurance quote through us does not guarantee you can get the insurance. Acceptance by insurance companies is based on things like occupation, health and lifestyle. By providing you with the ability to apply for a credit card or loan, we are not guaranteeing that your application will be approved. Your application for credit products is subject to the Provider's terms and conditions as well as their application and lending criteria.
Please read our website terms of use and privacy policy for more information about our services and our approach to privacy.
