No brokers. No comparison sites. No funny business.
Every year, businesses spend heaps of their hard-earned money on commission for energy middlemen.
We think you should keep that money (or at least spend it on team snacks instead).
That's why you'll never find us through a broker or price comparison site.
| Traditional energy brokers | Octopus Energy for Business |
|---|---|
| You pay (often hidden) commission on your contracts | No commission, just fair and transparent prices |
| Your prices could rise mid-contract | Your fixed rate is precisely that: fixed |
| You get constant sales calls and pressure selling | We're here to help, not sell |
