Yes, our service is completely free for tenants. We work with trusted providers to get you the best deals without any extra cost.

Texas has a deregulated energy market. That means most Texans can compare electricity rates and plans from third-party electricity providers to find the best deal for their home or business.

In most cases, you can have everything arranged within a few minutes, and your services activated within days depending on the provider.

Fixed-rate plans will have a set price for the term of the contract. Regardless of weather, natural events, or market volatility, your rate will not change. In most cases, fixed-rate plans have a term length of 6, 12, 24, or 36 months. We recommend fixed-rate plans for most customers.

Variable-rate plan rates may change on a monthly basis based on market factors. Variable-rate plans offer more flexibility but also present more volatility in pricing which may impact your monthly electricity bill. In most cases, we do not recommend variable-rate plans.

While many Texas locales and cities near Austin feature a deregulated energy market, meaning you can choose your energy provider, Austin itself is a bit different, and utility services here are overseen by Austin Energy.

If you are moving to Austin, you need to check if you are covered by the City of Austin regulated area, if so, then you must open an account with them to get electricity services
