How does uSwitch.com make money?
uSwitch.com has agreed deals with some suppliers across all our services to receive a small commission payment when a customer chooses to switch their gas, electricity, broadband, mobile phones or apply for a product through us. Our commercial relationships are in place to help make the switching process as convenient as possible for our customers, and in some cases we can offer exclusive deals that are not available directly from the supplier. They also enable us to keep this a free service.
