What We Do

MONY Group is the UK’s leading listed tech-based savings platform, supporting not only its own well-trusted brands, MoneySuperMarket, MoneySavingExpert and Quidco, but also those of leading third-party businesses. This expansion beyond the original price comparison website means being named after just one of our consumer brands no longer represents the extent of the business today. Our new name is MONY Group plc as of Monday 20 May 2024, which aligns with our stock market ticker. Passionate about our purpose, we’re driven to help our customers and users save money, every day. So, we value willpower, and the tenacity to take on challenges and push ideas through. In return, we’ve created an environment where those with spirit and drive will really shine. We’re open-minded and value differences and opinions. We work hard to make sure everyone feels they belong. And we’re committed to creating an environment where our people can excel both professionally and personally. Driven by our customers and users, the market and each other, we work hard. But it’s worth it. Because even better than the flexibility, support and career growth is the feeling we get from seeing the impact we have on millions of UK households to save money. What we do together is beyond comparison. We're home to amazing brands and over 600 talented colleagues. You might be familiar with our brands - and maybe you've even used some of our services.
