How is Giraffy different from other comparison sites?

Most comparison sites only show providers they have a commercial deal with in a "pay to play" model. Giraffy is built differently. We use our own Giraffy Radar technology to scan and show the entire market regardless of whether a provider pays us. Our goal is completeness over commission.

Is Giraffy free to use?

Yes. Giraffy is 100% free for consumers to browse, compare, and learn about the market. There are no hidden fees or subscriptions for individuals.

How do you make money if you show every deal?

Transparency is our priority. Unlike other platforms, we do not receive referral fees or commissions when you switch providers. We primarily make money by selling our market intelligence software, Giraffy for Business, to telecoms, banks and insurers. We also occasionally feature sponsored ads at the top of the page. Crucially, these ads never change how we rank the rest of the market. We show you the best options based on data, even if that choice doesn't make us a penny.

How often is the information updated?

Our information is updated daily. Financial markets move fast, so we built Giraffy Radar to monitor providers 24/7. While other sites might show outdated snapshots, we reflect the most current pricing, terms, and availability as they happen.

Do you show deals from every bank and provider?

We aim for 100% market coverage. This includes major high street banks and telecom giants along with smaller, specialised providers that other sites often overlook. If a legitimate deal exists in the market, our goal is to have it on Giraffy.

In which countries is Giraffy available?

We are currently live in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman, the United Kingdom, Italy, and the Netherlands. We are constantly expanding into new regions to bring financial clarity to more people.

We're the financial platform

That shows you the full market.

"When we started Giraffy in 2025, we set out to do things differently. We wanted to show people the full market for everyday finance in one place, creating a clear alternative to confusing sites that only show part of the picture."

Why Giraffy exists

In a world of "compare and save," it's surprisingly hard to see the truth.

Across telecoms, banking, finance (loans), and insurance, you're often asked to make big financial decisions while only seeing half the picture. Prices are unclear. Fine print is buried. Most comparison sites are "pay to play," prioritising providers who pay them commission rather than those offering the best option for you.

Giraffy was built to change that. We believe that seeing the full market is the only way to build real trust. We bring 100% of live household finance deals together, so you can compare fairly, avoid surprises, and switch with confidence.

Live Tracking: We catch price drops and new launches as they happen.

Global Standards: We maintain consistent, high quality data across every country we serve.

What Makes Us Different

We operate by four simple promises to you:

Completeness

We aim to cover the full market, not just the household names.

Accuracy

We structure data so you can compare "apples to apples" without the confusion.

Freshness

Our deals are updated daily. If it exists in the market, it's on Giraffy.

Neutrality

We don't play favorites. We rank options based on relevance to you, not commissions to us.

Our Vision

To become the most trusted place in the world to understand household bills and everyday finance.

Our Team

Giraffy is built by a team with deep experience in consumer platforms, marketplaces, and financial services.
