Beyond Compare
Comparison is only one step in the retail energy bill optimisation journey. Bill Hero automates the complete cycle — monitoring your bills, comparing every bill against every plan from every retailer, reporting your savings, and switching when you can save. We do this for you on every billing cycle, hands-free. That's why we call it Savings as a Service.

Switch
Our "Do It For Me" service handles the switch on your behalf. Your forwarding address carries over, so the savings cycle continues automatically.

Report
When savings are found, you get a clear report via email and SMS — exactly how much you could save, with which retailer, on which plan.

Frequently asked
Questions, answered.
Bill Hero is an automated energy bill monitoring and comparison service. We compare your electricity bill against every available plan from every retailer, and help you switch to save money. Unlike free comparison sites, we don't take commissions from retailers — we work entirely for you.
Bill Hero costs $49/year for electricity only, or $79/year for electricity and gas. All subscriptions include our money-back Savings Guarantee.
If we can't find more savings on your first bill comparison than the cost of your subscription, you can cancel immediately for a full refund.
You can forward your energy bill email directly to us, or upload a PDF of your bill through your account. We extract all the details automatically — no manual data entry needed.
Yes, completely safe. There are no exit fees, no interruption to supply, and no change to your physical connection. The only thing that changes is who sends you the bill.
Sites like Energy Made Easy and Victorian Energy Compare do one step — compare — and they do it well. But they leave everything else to you. Bill Hero does the full cycle: we monitor every bill, compare it against the whole market, report your savings, and in most cases, we can even handle the switch for you — then we keep watching so you never drift back. The proof that comparison alone isn't enough: in 2022, the Victorian government paid 1.8 million households $250 to compare on its own site, and switching barely moved. Comparing isn't the hard part. Switching is.
Free comparison sites take commissions from the retailers they recommend — which means they're working for those retailers, not for you. Bill Hero charges a subscription so we can be completely independent and always recommend the genuinely cheapest plan for you, not the one that pays us the most commission.
No — you're always in control with Bill Hero. We show you the savings available on every bill and we make the switching process easier than you can imagine, but the decision to switch is always yours. We also let you set your personal "Bothered Threshold", so we'll only alert you when savings exceed a level that's worth your time.
