3. The Comparis story
30 years of promoting greater market transparency

Comparis today: More transparency. More decision support. More freedom of choice.
With three decades of experience, Comparis stands for

user-friendliness and
transparency in all areas of life.
Whether it’s health insurance, mortgages, insurance, property, cars or telecommunications – Comparis supports millions of people in Switzerland in making the right decision quickly and confidently and in finding the right provider.
4. How our portals and comparisons work
Comparis enables you to compare the prices, features, rates, extras and details of an offer. This applies both to our portals and to our comparisons in the fields of health insurance, insurance, banking and telecommunications.
We want our users to find the offer that’s right for them. That’s why we are committed to depicting as many available offers on the market as possible, to show as many available offers in a given market as possible. To this end, Comparis also compares products and services from providers who do not wish to appear in our comparisons or with whom we have no contractual relationship.
For a clearer overview we avoid multiple listings. If different providers offer the same product – such as a vehicle – at the same price, we will only show you one offer. The individual providers are listed separately.
If users are interested in an offer, Comparis forwards the enquiry to the provider on their behalf. The quote is provided free of charge.
Use of artificial intelligence
We aim to continuously improve the services we offer. To this end, we also use artificial intelligence (AI). Modern technologies support us in the creation, editing and optimisation of a wide variety of elements. These include, for example, content and code programming, as well as other areas of application.
All elements created with the help of generative AI are carefully checked by us. This ensures that they meet our quality standards and are accurate, relevant and truthful. Products and content created entirely by artificial intelligence are labelled accordingly.
We use artificial intelligence in accordance with applicable data protection law and our ethical standards. Personal data will only be processed or used with express consent.

Comparis Rating for the vehicle market

7. How Comparis earns money – and how it doesn’t
Our comparisons and services are free of charge for our customers. To keep it that way, just like any other company, we have to earn an income. This income consists of:
| ✅ Paid product placement | ✅ Advertising | ✅ Quote and contact enquiries |
|---|---|---|
| Some deals are visually highlighted in our comparisons and results lists. These are additional advertising inserts that are clearly distinct from the other deals. They do not affect the order of the results. | We also finance our operations through digital advertising, such as banners. Such ads are marked as «AD» on comparis.ch and in our emails. | We pass on your enquiry in your name to the provider you are interested in. The provider pays us a set amount for this. In return, providers are able to reduce their customer acquisition and administrative costs significantly. |
We attach great importance to transparency. It is our policy not to earn income through the following practices:
| ❌ Selling data | ❌ Ranking of deals | ❌ Research and analyses |
|---|---|---|
| The security of your personal data is our top priority. We handle your data with care, in accordance with our data privacy statement. Unless you specifically ask us to do so, for example when you request a quote from our comparisons, we do not pass any customer data on to third parties. | Comparis is not for sale. Nor are placements in the rankings that we present to you. The rankings of products or services that you see always correspond to the information you have given and the filter criteria you have chosen. Paid product placements are separate from the rankings themselves. | Our experts are incorruptible. They work independently and report impartially. |
With its comparisons, Comparis increases the pressure on providers to offer the lowest possible premiums and to keep customer satisfaction high.
With its health insurance comparison service for basic insurance, Comparis generated sales revenue of around 6.0 million francs in 2025 .
