Here at NZ Compare, we are all about helping Kiwis make better decisions with their hard-earned money and getting more value.

We have rounded up the top 4 benefits of regularly comparing your bills with NZ Compare.
1. Make Informed Decisions
Our mission at NZ Compare is to provide Kiwis with all the information they need to make the best decision possible for their household or budget. Knowledge is power, and having all the information about different plans and products available to you, all in one place, will empower you to choose the best deal that matches your unique household needs. There is no point, in this economy, in putting your money towards a plan that either undercuts you, or provides you with features that you don’t need. NZ Compare’s platforms are designed to help you make a fully informed choice.Â
2. Unlock Savings that Make a Difference
Comparing your bills is one of the most effective ways to unlock potential savings. Every household in New Zealand has unique needs and preferences. For example, there are low users and standard users of power. Some households may just need a basic fibre plan, whereas others may be more data intensive and need a faster plan. When you jump on NZ Compare’s platforms, you can compare the different plans out there, their prices, and what they offer. You are more likely to find a deal that delivers you more value for money, and one that is cheaper than your current plan.Â

3. Stay Up To Date with Changes in the Market
As the cost of living continues to rise and squeeze budgets, prices and plans are going to be changing around us all the time. As part of a healthy budget, you should keep up to date with changes to market trends and prices within the telecommunications and power industries. Keep up to date so you can prepare to make changes to your plans when needed and be sure that you aren’t paying too much.Â

4. Avoid Loyalty Tax
Loyalty tax refers to a consumer who stays with the same provider or plan out of convenience. The problem with staying blissfully loyal is that you could fall victim to price increases. You can save a lot of money over a year by making the regular habit of comparing, and seeing if there are better deals out there.Â
