About Octopus50
We run an independent referral site and earn £50 credit if you join Octopus Energy through our link. Your £50 is unaffected, and the information below is based on Octopus's own published pages.
Octopus50 (octopus50.com) is an independent UK website run by an Octopus Energy customer. It shares a personal referral link and publishes guides based on Octopus Energy's own pages. It is not owned, run or endorsed by Octopus Energy.
Who we are
This site is run by an individual Octopus Energy customer in the UK. We are not Octopus Energy, we are not employed by Octopus Energy, and we can't see or change your account, your switch or your credit. For anything about your account, contact Octopus directly.
How the site makes money
Octopus Energy runs a refer-a-friend scheme. If you sign up using our link, you get £50 energy credit and we get £50 too. We don't charge anything and we don't take a cut of your credit. The same disclosure appears on every page. Your £50 is the same whether or not you use our link rather than someone else's, so the reason to use ours is simply that you found the information here useful.
The link carries rel="sponsored" so search engines know it is a referral link.
Where our information comes from
- Octopus Energy's own help centre, blog and tariff pages, linked at the bottom of each guide
- Ofgem, the energy regulator, for rules on switching and the price cap
- Which? for independent provider ratings
We cite the page a claim comes from and avoid guessing. Where something changes often, such as tariff rates and exit fees, we say so and point you to Octopus's live page.
How we keep pages accurate
Each page shows a "last updated" date. We recheck figures against Octopus's published pages when we update, and we write "at the time of writing" for details that can change. If our page and Octopus's live page disagree, Octopus's page is correct.
What this site is not
- It is not financial advice or an energy comparison service. We don't compare suppliers.
- It is not the way to get a referral credit through a comparison site. Octopus only pays the credit when you join through the link directly on its own website.
- It is not affiliated with Octopus Energy Group Limited.
