Why We're Different
Most comparison sites are scared to have opinions. We've helped 2.5M Texans sign up for electricity. We've earned the right to tell the truth.
Same Commission. No Bias.
We get paid the same whether you pick TXU or some company you've never heard of. That's the deal.
We Take Sides
TXU charges 15-25% more than market average. Gexa has fewer complaints than Reliant. Other sites won't say it. We will.
2.5M Texans. 10 Years.
That's how many people have signed up through our platform. We know which companies treat people right.
The System Is Rigged Against You
You're not bad at picking electricity companies. The industry is designed to overwhelm smart people so they give up and pick whoever has the catchiest jingle. Here's what they're hiding:
The big brands are overcharging you. TXU and Reliant spend millions on TV ads, billboards, and stadium naming rights. Guess who pays for that? You do. Their rates run 15-25% above market average for the exact same electricity.
"Lowest rate" is a lie. That 8.5 cent rate? It only applies at exactly 1,000 kWh. Use 999 kWh? Different rate. Use 1,001 kWh? Different rate. The advertised numbers are engineered to win comparisons, not save you money.
Most "100% renewable" plans are theater. They're buying renewable energy credits after the fact. Green Mountain has been 100% renewable since 1997. Most of the others? Marketing checkbox.
We earn a commission when you sign up through ComparePower. Same amount, regardless of which company you choose. We have no incentive to push TXU over Gexa or anyone else.
