riverfront dining — they all run on the same Energex distribution network, but the retailers quoting them charge wildly different rates for the same kilowatt-hour.

FAQ

Gym or fitness studio energy in Hamilton — common questions

How exactly are Smarta Switch paid?

When we move your account to a new retailer, that retailer pays us a commission — partly upfront, partly as a trail over the life of the contract. We don't charge you a fee, mark up your rate, or add anything to your invoice. Ask us the exact dollar amount on any specific deal — we'll tell you.

Will my power get cut off when I switch?

No. Switching retailers doesn't touch the wires or your meter. Same poles, same wires, same network operator (Energex for nearly all SEQ). You just get a different name on your invoice — and a better number.

How long does a switch take?

Typical SEQ small-business switch: 10–20 business days from signing the Letter of Authority. We send the LoA, you sign, we lodge with the new retailer, they handle the meter-data hand-off with the network. Your old contract ends, the new one starts.

When should I renew my contract?

60–90 days before your current term ends. Don't let it roll over to default rates — those are usually 15–30% higher than what's available on the market. Send us your bill 60 days out and we'll re-quote.

Should I be on time-of-use or flat-rate?

Depends on your usage pattern. Cafes open 6am–2pm usually win on flat-rate. Gyms with split 5–9am and 4–8pm windows usually win on TOU. We test both with your real meter data, not a generic assumption.

I'm mid-contract — can I still get quotes?

Yes. We can quote now and lodge the switch to take effect at your contract end date. Just send your bill 60–90 days before expiry and we'll have your new contract ready to go.

Straight talk on how we get paid

We're paid by the energy retailer when you switch — never by you.

When we move your account to a new retailer, that retailer pays us a commission — partly upfront, partly as a trail while you're with them. Your rate is your rate. There's no markup, no broker fee on your invoice, no monthly subscription.

We disclose the commission existence on every quote. If you want to know the exact dollar amount on a deal, ask. We'll tell you.

This is why we win on transparency: we'd rather show you the maths than dress up the savings.
