One Big Switch is a consumer network, established to build real consumer power.
We use the latest advances in technology and digital campaigning to help consumers unlock discounts on their household bills.
This determination to take coordinated action to create competition empowers One Big Switch members.
One Big Switch launched in Ireland in February 2014 with the Big Energy Switch, a campaign to unlock group discounted electricity and gas. This national group switching campaign was the first of its kind in Ireland, and used a campaigning technique pioneered by One Big Switch globally.
64,000-plus households joined the first Big Energy Switch creating unprecedented people power. Tens of thousands of consumers saved on soaring electricity bills as a result of switching or shopping around.
Since then One Big Switch has also used the power of collective switching to unlock exclusive discounts on high quality health insurance, mortgage protection insurance, mortgages, home insurance and broadband offers.
As the power of One Big Switch continues to grow we will continue to expand the range of offers we can make to our consumers on their household bills.
Oliver Tattan, an Irish entrepreneur who has spent several decades building businesses that drive competition and better consumer outcomes in the Irish market, brought One Big Switch to Ireland.
Oliver was determined to bring One Big Switch to his home because he could see that as the financial crisis slowly receded, Irish consumers were facing an affordability crisis, prices for households essentials were rising much faster than household income.
Only a consumer network with the power to create new products, unlock group discounts, and bring new competitors to the market, can help reverse this trend.
One Big Switch members work together to build next generation consumer campaigns. These national campaigns will not only help unlock discounted products and services, they will also help ensure the Irish consumer voice gets heard.
One Big Switch is now one of the world’s largest consumer organisations, and the fastest growing consumer network in the world. One Big Switch currently operates in Ireland, the UK, the USA, and Australia. One Big Switch is a for-profit-with-purpose enterprise, One Big Switch is free to join, and entirely obligation free.
