Comfort shouldn’t come with bill shock 😬

From air cons to heaters, the way we stay comfy at home can quietly add up — sometimes way more than we expect.

Knowing what’s driving your energy bill (and comparing your options) could make a real difference 💡

Premium crept up again? You’re not imagining it 👀
Even safe drivers can pay more thanks to rising repair costs and parts 🚗🔧 — and loyalty doesn’t always pay.
Comparing could help you stay in control (and keep more money in your pocket 💸).

How can I get cheap car insurance?

We get it. Everyone’s trying to save as much as they can on household expenses like car insurance. So why wouldn’t you want to scope out a cheap car insurance policy?

If you’re looking to score a cheaper premium, you could try a car insurance comparison tool like the one we offer to help compare a range of policies and providers.

But here’s something important to consider – taking out a policy that isn’t necessarily the cheapest but offers more value for money might help you hold on to your hard-earned moolah in the long run.

If you don’t have the appropriate level of cover and have an accident, you could be hundreds or thousands of dollars out of pocket if you want to repair or replace your car. Comprehensive cover, though pricier, could do either depending on the conditions outlined in the product disclosure statement.

In fact, there are several ways to save on car insurance costs, from increasing your excess to choosing a pay-as-you-drive policy.

Those colourful star stickers on appliances aren’t just an Aussie tradition ⭐
They show how energy‑efficient an appliance is — and how much electricity it might use in a year.
More stars = less energy compared to similar models.
And that yearly kWh number? It can help you estimate running costs.
Higher‑rated appliances may cost more upfront — but over 10–15 years, lower running costs could mean real savings on your power bills.
So don’t peel the sticker off just yet 😉

How do I save money on my energy bill?

Energy savings can come in all shapes and sizes with plenty of tips to save electricity and cut down your gas bill floating around. For instance, you could:

- Switch lightbulbs to energy-efficient LEDs
- Adjust the temperature you set your heating to 18-22 in winter or cooling to 22-24 in summer
- Close curtains and blinds on hot or cold days
- Upgrade from a gas hot water system to a heat pump
- Install solar panels at your place

You can also look at switching Energy Plans to see if you can get a better value deal.

Big DMO and VDO updates — but here’s the key takeaway 💡
Less than 1 in 10 Aussies are still on default electricity tariffs, which are meant as a safety net, not the cheapest option.
So even when prices change, many households could already be paying more than they need to — just by staying put.

Surprise hospital bills? Big nope. 🙅‍♀️
Some health funds don’t have agreements with every hospital — and that can mean higher out‑of‑pocket costs.
We help you find cover that keeps your options open.

What is hospital cover?
Private hospital cover is just what it sounds like. It helps cover costs when you’re treated as a private patient in a hospital. This can include in-hospital costs for essentials like medication, theatre fees, and accommodation. In short, it’s peace of mind when life decides to throw you a curveball.

Why should I consider hospital cover?
Hospital cover gives you more control. You can choose your doctor, pick the hospital where you’ll stay, and you’ll usually be able to skip the long wait times for elective surgery. Plus, if you’re a higher income earner, having an eligible level of hospital cover could mean you’ll pay less tax. So, it’s a win-win for your health and your wallet.

Your policy says you're covered… but are you really? 👀
Many Aussies get caught out by restricted benefits and unexpected out‑of‑pocket costs.
Make sure your cover actually matches your family’s needs — check the fine print or chat with our comparison experts on 13 19 20. 💬✨

How can I find the cheapest health insurance cover in Australia?

Shopping around is a good strategy here. Comparing policies from different providers can give you a clear overview of which one has the lowest premiums.

However, keep in mind that a policy with cheaper premiums may not always be cheaper in the long term. A policy with a higher excess might cost you less each month, but when it comes time to claim on that policy you may end up paying much more out of pocket.

Price is also just one consideration among many. It’s also worth thinking about the level of cover you’ll need – whether you want a basic policy or something more comprehensive. This is why it’s important to compare policies with the same level of cover, excesses and benefits. This can give you a better picture of which one offers more value.

Thought your unused extras expired? Same. 😅 Turns out some policies roll them over — meaning more cover when you actually need it.

How much your extras cover premiums will be depends on several factors. A big factor, though, is what stage of life you’re in. While health insurance is community rated (that means your age or health conditions aren’t factored in your premiums), getting older can mean you want more services covered.

For instance, having a young family might mean you need lots of different services covered. Similarly, if you’re older and even retired, having more extras could be one way you look after your health.

And, don’t forget, depending on your eligibility, you could have some of your premium costs covered by the private health insurance government rebate.

How can I reduce the cost of my extras cover?

Nobody’s going to say no to a nice little discount on their extras policy. Here’s how you could save with certain health insurance funds.

Pay premiums in advance
Paying up to 12 months in advance before the annual rate rise could lower your premium rate.

Pay by direct debit
Some insurers give a small discount to members who set up a direct debit for simplified, automatic payments.

Ever checked your car insurance and instantly regretted it…
Then realised it might be exactly what you needed to do? 😬🚗

If so many Aussies find car insurance a burden, maybe it’s time to compare.

How do I compare car insurance quotes online?

Comparing car insurance can feel like trying to find a needle in a haystack. It can be exhausting to try and sort through all the providers, plans, and perks to find the one you want.

That’s why a great choice for comparing policies online could be a car insurance comparison tool like iSelect’s.

You just need to add a few details, and voilà! You can compare policies from a range of providers laid out side by side with features like costs, excesses, and coverage limits – all minus the hassle of jumping between multiple insurer websites. And the best part is, it will cost you the same as it would to buy a policy directly from the insurer.

Just remember to keep your car’s details on hand, such as the make and model, year of manufacture, accident history (if any), where it’s usually parked, and what you intend using it for (private, business, ridesharing, or similar). And always read the product disclosure statement (PDS) before you decide to buy.

Car crash with no insurance? A tiny bump turned into a very expensive lesson — fast.

You can’t predict what other drivers will do…
…but you can control whether you’re protected when things go wrong.

Top tips for saving more on your car insurance

Change where you park your car
A simple switch from parking in the street to in the garage could mean a reduction in your premium, as well as keeping your car better protected from the elements. Cleaning the junk out of the garage so you can park your car in there might be more worthwhile than you thought.

Pick a policy that lines up with your odometer
If you only use your car to go to the shops and work, you mightn’t be travelling all that far each year. This could mean you can opt for a policy that factors in your fewer kilometres in exchange for a cheaper premium.

Ditch the optional extras if they aren't up your alley
Extra chips or an extra shot of coffee can be great. But sometimes you don’t want to pay for extras, and that’s okay. Before you buy a policy, take a look at the product disclosure statement (PDS) and see if any extras, like roadside assistance or windscreen repair, can be dropped. Doing so could mean paying a lower premium.

Switch from paying monthly to annually
Opting for a lump-sum annual payment rather than monthly instalments could be a simple way to trim down your premium. It could also mean you skip some of the processing fees.
