PriceMe launches new financial comparison site

To enable NZ consumers to get a greater understanding of their personal finance costs, PriceMe has just launched a new financial comparison tool at priceme.co.nz/finance . This new site allows users to view the interest rates and fees that local banks and financial providers charge for their credit cards, home and personal loans etc. It also provides comparison data on what interest you will earn and the applicable fees for various investment and term deposit accounts.

Over the last four years, PriceMe has empowered shoppers with up-to-the-minute information on prices, product reviews and retailer and product ratings, covering a wide range of consumer electronic products, appliances, mobile phones and computers.

"We intend to bring transparency around the quality, attributes and pricing of financial products, so that consumers can make informed decisions in the way we have empowered shoppers with other products" says Chris palmer, PriceMe's Marketing Director. "Consumers can now access independent information around their financial products and services, so they don't make sub-optimal decisions that could potentially cost them thousands of dollars and lots of time each year".

Information on KiwiSaver costs as well as health, car and travel insurance will be added to PriceMe Finance in the coming months, enabling consumers to access information on a broad range of financial products and services.
