how we're paid.
You pay the supplier's price as normal. Our fee is capped, flat, and paid by the supplier — not charged to you directly. We show it to you before you switch. Never buried in your rate. Never a mystery.
paid by the supplier. shown to you first.
When you switch energy through us, the supplier pays us a capped flat fee. You are not invoiced separately — the fee sits inside the rate, as it does with all brokers. The difference: we tell you the exact amount before you agree to anything. It never varies with usage once quoted, and it's always confirmed before the switch.
| Business size | Annual usage | Our fee |
|---|---|---|
| Micro | Up to 25,000 kWh / yr | Capped flat fee. Paid by the supplier. Confirmed before you switch. |
| Small | 25,001 to 100,000 kWh / yr | Capped flat fee. Paid by the supplier. Confirmed before you switch. |
| Medium | 100,001 to 500,000 kWh / yr | Capped flat fee. Paid by the supplier. Confirmed before you switch. |
| Larger | 500,001 kWh+ / yr | Contact us for your band |
the hidden broker trick.
Most brokers claim they're free. They're not. They just hide it. Typically 2 to 5 pence per unit, tucked inside a "blended" rate that you're quoted as one clean-looking number. You never see what the broker takes.
Example
Supplier's raw rate: 22p/kWh. Broker's hidden cut: 3p/kWh. You're quoted 25p/kWh with no mention of the 3p. On 50,000 kWh that's £1,500 you never agreed to.
What we don't do
- ✕ No hidden uplift on your unit rate
- ✕ No blended rates with the commission buried inside
- ✕ No fee that grows the more you use
- ✕ No surprise margin on standing charges
- ✕ No phone calls to pressure you into switching
Water and waste
Water and waste fee arrangements differ by contract and supplier. If we find savings, we'll explain our specific fee structure for those utilities clearly before you agree to anything. Same principle: shown upfront, agreed before proceeding.
why we publish this.
We believe businesses make better decisions with all the facts. Publishing the fee structure removes the conflict of interest. Our goal isn't to maximise a hidden margin. It's to find you a competitive rate, process it cleanly, and leave your phone alone.
