Sharing our profits 50/50
Our 50/50 profit share explained
At Share Energy, we genuinely believe that it's possible to run a sustainable business that rewards, rather than exploits, its customers
While the energy giants continue to hogg record profits, Share Energy's profit-sharing model ensures that our growth directly benefits our customers. Such a revolutionary model is bound to generate queries, so we've done our best to answer the most common ones below.
We share our profits with our customers 50/50.
Our model is based on long-term relationships, and we’ll start tracking your profit as soon as you join. So the longer you're with us the more you'll receive.

Like all suppliers, the majority of your bill covers the cost of the energy, as well as our operating costs and relevant taxes.
Profit is what’s left after covering those expenses, and we share half of it with our customers. The profit on every pound can seem small, but it all adds up!

We’re not able to give you a precise figure on how much you’ll receive, since it depends on how much profit we've made.
Your share will be based on your consumption - as a percentage of the total energy supplied by Share Energy - between October 1st and September 30th - our 'Financial Year'.
All profit payments will include any profit you earned in the preceding Financial Year.

We'll share our profits once a year - usually in July - just as soon as our accounts have been independently audited.
Please note that you must be a customer on the date of the pay-out to receive your payment.
It goes without saying that to share profits we first need to make profit, so spread the word about Share Energy, because the more customers we have the more we can share - and the sooner we can do it.

Your share of the profits can be sent as cash to your bank account - or credit to your Share Energy account or meter, whichever you decide.

The Share Energy profit-share scheme is available to qualifying customers only. Should you decide to leave, you’ll no longer qualify under the scheme and will forfeit any entitlement to the profit share.
We truly value your custom at Share Energy and we're continually striving to enhance our services. If you’re considering a switch, we’d be grateful for the chance to understand your reasons and discuss how we might better meet your needs.

While we acknowledge that it can sometimes be difficult in the first year of business, our firm intention is to be profitable as soon as possible so that we can begin to reward our customers. However, this will depend entirely on the company’s performance and the number of customers that join.
The more customers we have, the more we can share and the sooner we can do it, so spread the word!
