Why we recommend it

We have included StromAuskunft because we are convinced by the idea of not having to do the annual comparison and switching effort ourselves every time. That's exactly the point: The service takes work off your hands if you don't want to click through tariffs every year. In addition, the portal combines comparison with a switching service. This is particularly interesting for us if you want good conditions, but don't want to keep an eye on the decision completely alone. However, the classification is also important to us: We describe the service as a comparison portal with a switching service and nothing more.

What convinced us

  • Comparison for electricity and gas

    You can compare electricity and gas prices in one place. This makes the search clearer if you want to keep an eye on both areas.

  • Automatic switching service on request

    The mySwitch tariff watchdog can automatically switch to the cheapest tariff every year if you wish. This saves you the annual recomparison if you want to set it that way.

  • Also with reminder instead of fully automatic

    If you don't want to switch automatically, you'll get a reminder with a suggestion instead, according to member experience. This suits you if you prefer to make the decision yourself.

  • Specifications can be set

    Several criteria can be stored, such as green electricity, term or notice period. This allows the selection to fit more closely with your specifications.

  • Free switching service

    Our team describes the service as free; it is financed by a fixed commission per switch, which is the same for each provider.

  • Classified as helpful by the editors

    What we particularly like about StromAuskunft is that the service addresses the recurring expense of changing electricity and gas providers.

Who it's not for

StromAuskunft is not ideal for you if you want to control every change completely yourself and work without reminders or automatic suggestions. Even if you don't need any comparison or switching help, the portal brings you little additional benefit. If you like to click through all the details yourself, you don't need the automatic approach.

    “My tip for all those who don't feel like comparing electricity tariffs every year: StromAuskunft has the mySwitch tariff watchdog. Enter consumption and specifications once — if desired, the electricity and gas provider service will then automatically switch to the cheapest tariff every year. If you prefer to decide for yourself, you will receive a reminder with a suggestion instead; specifications such as green electricity, term or notice period can be set firmly. It costs nothing — this is financed by a fixed commission per switch, which is the same for each provider. Test winner in Finanztest 09/2025. The site looks a bit old-fashioned, but the quality behind it is right.”
