How we picked these
No. Your energy supply will not be interrupted at any point during the switch. Energy flows through the same poles and wires (or
gas pipes) regardless of which retailer you're with. The only thing that changes is who sends you the bill.
Your old retailer continues to supply your energy right up until the moment your new plan kicks in. There is no gap, no downtime,
and nothing you need to do to keep the lights on or the gas flowing.
Most switches are completed within 1–2 business days, though it can occasionally take up to 10 business days depending on your
current retailer and meter type. You won't notice any change to your supply during this time.
If you have a smart meter, the switchover is typically even faster since no physical meter read is required.
No. Your new retailer handles the transfer on your behalf. Once the switch is complete, your old provider will send you a final
bill based on your last meter read.
If you have any outstanding balance with your current provider, you'll still need to settle that separately.
If you're on an ongoing market contract with no fixed term, you can switch without penalty. However, if you're on a fixed-term
contract (such as a benefit period), check whether any early termination fees apply before switching.
Your new retailer can usually help you work this out, or you can check the terms and conditions of your current energy plan. You
can also contact your current retailer directly to confirm whether any fees apply.
In most cases, no. Your existing meter stays in place and your new retailer simply takes over the billing. The physical
infrastructure that delivers electricity or gas to your home doesn't change when you switch providers.
If your property still has an older accumulation meter, your new retailer may suggest upgrading to a smart meter. This is not
required to switch, but a smart meter can give you access to more competitive plans and better visibility of your energy usage.
In the unlikely event of a delay, your current retailer remains responsible for your supply. You won't be left without energy. If
you have any concerns, your new retailer's support team can check the status of your transfer at any time.
If a switch is rejected for any reason — for example, due to a mismatched address or account detail — your new retailer will
notify you and help resolve the issue.
Yes. As the account holder, you have the right to choose your electricity or gas retailer regardless of whether you own or rent.
You do not need permission from your landlord or property manager to switch providers.
However, if your property is part of an embedded network (common in some apartment complexes), your choice of retailer may be
limited. Check with your body corporate or property manager if you're unsure.
Finder is a comparison service. We do not compare every product or every provider in the market.
We make money through commercial arrangements with some of the providers on this site. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement.
Our editorial content, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements.
The default order of products in our tables can be influenced by commercial arrangements. You can re-sort or filter using the controls above each table.
Some content on this site may be generated or supported by AI tools. You should verify details directly with the provider.
Finder is one of Australia's leading comparison websites. We are committed to our readers and stand by our editorial principles.
Our comparison service does not include every product or every provider in the market. Some product issuers offer their products under multiple brands or through associated companies. Where we can, we identify the underlying issuer so you can compare like with like, but you should always check with the provider directly to confirm which brand you are dealing with.
Finder is a comparison website and an intermediary. We are not a product issuer and we do not provide personal financial or credit advice. When you click a link to a product, or apply for a product through our site, you deal directly with the product issuer. We may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the issuer if you click through, apply or take out a product. We describe these arrangements in more detail under 'How we make money' below.
Product features, fees, terms and eligibility criteria are set by the product issuer and may change. We rely on information supplied by issuers when we present product details on our site. Before you apply for or take out any product, you should confirm the details directly with the issuer.
We earn revenue from Finder in four principal ways:
Referral fees and commissions. When you click a product link, complete an enquiry form or apply for a product through our site, we may receive a referral fee, commission or other payment from the product issuer. We may also receive payment based on the volume of leads or conversions we send to an issuer.
Sponsored placements. Products marked 'Sponsored', 'Promoted', 'Featured' or 'Advertisement' appear as a result of a commercial arrangement between Finder and the issuer. These labels always indicate a paid placement. We do not use them for editorial choices.
Display advertising. Banner advertising, newsletter advertising and similar display ads on our site are paid by advertisers.
Content sponsorship. Some articles, videos and social media posts are sponsored by an issuer and are clearly labelled as such.
Our editorial opinions, product reviews and any 'Top Pick' designations are prepared independently of these commercial arrangements. A 'Top Pick' is an editorial choice made by our writers and editors based on the criteria described on each comparison page. A 'Top Pick' is not a personal recommendation and does not mean the product is appropriate for your circumstances.
If you would like to know whether we have a commercial arrangement with a specific product issuer, please contact us.
When products are grouped in a table or list, the default order can be influenced by commercial arrangements we have with product issuers. In some categories, sponsored or featured products appear in the top positions of the table by default, and are always labelled as such.
Other factors that influence default order include price, fees and features, and (where relevant) our editorial view of the product.
You can re-sort every comparison table using the controls above the table. You can filter by product features that matter to you. The order you see after re-sorting or filtering is not influenced by commercial arrangements.
