How we compare services — a diagram of the key planning steps
Planning diagram. The same steps are described in the text below.

Common criteria

Compare suitability, total price, included services, exclusions, contract duration, cancellation, support and verified regulatory information where relevant. The cheapest headline price may describe a different service.

Evidence and coverage

Record the date and source of every commercial quote. Explain which providers were considered and do not claim to cover the entire market unless that coverage has been established. The site does not publish a provider league table.

Personal comparison tools

Place scores reflect your entered ratings and weights. Rental comparisons use your own property links and costs. Example numbers are labelled as fictional scenarios, never as observed Portuguese averages.
