Bill Hero, is the best energy bill comparison, switching and saving service in Australia.
We help our subscribers stay always on the best priced energy plan.
We’re also parents, and are involved in our school communities. We know how hard it can be to raise funds for your school.
School Power is our free solution to help schools power-up their fundraising efforts.
School Power by Bill Hero will generate new revenue for your school, and deliver Guaranteed Savings back to every participating family in your school community. A true win-win.
Bill Hero is the only energy comparison service that makes it easy to stay always on the best-priced plan.
We’ve automated the entire energy bill monitoring, comparison and switching process, so you wont just get a one-time reduction to your energy bill, we’ll help you stay permanently on the best priced plan:
Bill Hero is an annual subscription service, which means that we do not rely on energy retailer commissions for funding. In fact we do not seek or accept any form of commissions, kick backs or inducements from energy retailers at all.
That frees us to concentrate solely on serving the interests of our real customers—energy consumers like you and your school community families—by helping you stay always on the best-priced plan.
We call this Savings as a Service.
Bill Hero has an existing ‘affiliate program’ which allows partner organisations to offer the Bill Hero service to their members, and receive revenue share for each new member that becomes a Bill Hero subscriber.
We’re proud that CHOICE (The Australian Consumers Association) is one of our partners.
We’re parents too, and are involved in our school communities. We’ve decided to offer our Bill Hero affiliate model on favourable terms for school fundraising, under the ‘School Power by Bill Hero’ name, to help support Australian schools and the hardworking volunteers who devote so much time and energy into raising funds for school activities.
Our standard affiliate terms are to give 30% of revenue to our affiliate partner for each new subscriber. Qualifying schools will receive more favourable terms - School Power by Bill Hero will give 50% of revenue to school affiliates.
To qualify for this 50% School Power revenue share offer, the payments must go to an official school bank account.
Joining School Power by Bill Hero is absolutely free, takes only a few minutes, and you can start generating revenue immediately, while delivering genuine energy savings benefits to your school community.
Fill in this form, and we’ll provide more information for you.
School Power by Bill Hero is very easy to set up:
You can launch School Power by Bill Hero through your school newsletter, your school communications app, posters, take-home leaflets, or any other way you choose.
Every new subscriber that joins via your unique link will count towards your revenue share!
Remember, with Bill Hero, the benefits go both ways - every new subscriber that joins the service gets our Savings Guarantee which ensures that they just can’t lose. We guarantee we’ll save them more than the price of the annual subscription, and on average, we save new subscribers nearly 8x the cost of the subscription on their very first bill!
Sorry, if a member of your school community is already a Bill Hero subscriber, they cannot count toward your own School Power by Bill Hero referrals.
New subscribers who join via your unique referral link will count.
If one of your school community members is already on a competitively priced plan, it’s possible that the available savings found for them could be lower than the price of the subscription, or they could even be on the absolute best priced plan available.
In this situation, we offer the subscriber a choice - they can keep the subscription and get a free two-month extension as a goodwill gesture, or they can cancel immediately for a full refund.
If they choose the cancel & refund option, then the revenue for that subscriber will be $0, and so the revenue shared for that subscriber will also be $0.
Bill Hero reconciles and pays out affiliate commissions monthly, with payments made in the first week of the following month. We’ll deposit your revenue share to your nominated bank account.
Bill Hero affiliate commissions are GST inclusive, and can be paid under a Recipient Created Tax Invoice, making invoicing and GST compliance simple for your school.
Yes you can!
By default, all SchoolPower affiliates will receive 50% of subscription fees for all new subscribers that join Bill Hero via your unique link. But it doesn’t have to be that way—you can choose to deploy some of that referral value back to your school community members in the form of a discount.
For example, instead of the default 50% revenue share going to your school fundraising, you could set it up so your community members gets a 10% discount on their subscription fee, and your school gets 40% revenue share.
Offering a discount means that your community members can access Bill Hero services via your link at a better price than they’d receive if they came straight to Bill Hero on their own. This can improve uptake and increase your overall fundraising performance.
