What's special about a Finder Award?

Money can't buy
Money can't buy love… or a Finder Award. Why? We believe the brands with the best offer, not the biggest budgets should be able to use the Finder Awards medal.

One winner
It's hard to win a Finder Award as we only recognise one winner per category. That means you can trust the winning product is the best of the best for that particular category.

Independent
Finder is totally independent, meaning the Awards are unbiased and objective. We established the Finder Awards to help people around the world easily identify the best products and brands and conduct research independent of any commercial agreements.
Did you know?
72% of Australians trust awards programs more when brands don't have to pay to use the awards badge. That's why Finder doesn't charge brands to supply a submission or to utilise the Finder Awards badge in their marketing.
