Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about our independence, pricing, data protection, scoring and how to get in touch.
Yes. Our comparison service is completely free for all readers. We may receive a commission when you apply for a product through our links, but this never increases the cost to you and never influences our editorial rankings.
No. Tecnicos Australia is operated by TECNICOS S.R.L, an independent company registered in Italy. We have no ownership ties to any Australian bank, credit union or lender.
Our editorial team reviews interest rates, comparison rates, fees and promotional offers every 24 hours. If a lender changes an offer, you will see the update on our site by the next business day at the latest.
We use TLS 1.3 encryption for all data transmission and comply with the Australian Privacy Act 1988. We never sell your personal information to third parties. Read our full Privacy Policy for details.
No. Tecnicos Australia provides general information and product comparisons only. We are not an authorised financial adviser and do not hold an AFS licence. Always consider your personal circumstances before applying.
Our scores combine objective data — rates, fees, conditions — with qualitative factors such as app quality and customer service. Paid placements cannot improve a score. Our methodology is explained on the How It Works page.

No. When you click apply, you are redirected to the provider's official website. We never collect financial details, run credit checks or process applications on our platform.
A comparison rate includes the interest rate plus most fees and charges, expressed as a single annual percentage. It helps you compare the true cost of loans and some credit products. We always show comparison rates alongside headline rates so you are not misled by marketing numbers.
Yes. Every newsletter email includes an unsubscribe link. You can also contact us at contact@tecnicossrl.com to be removed from our mailing list at any time.
