Fiksusti guides
An open-ended contract generally has no pre-agreed end date like a fixed-term contract. That does not tell you how the electricity price is set. Check the individual offer’s pricing model, price-change terms and conditions for ending the agreement.
Compare open-ended contracts ↓Open-ended describes how long the agreement runs; fixed-rate or spot-linked describes how the energy price is set. A product can combine these attributes in different ways. Check the actual product details rather than assuming one from the other.
You do not want a pre-agreed long contract period.
You value being able to review other offers later, subject to your agreement’s terms.
The offer’s pricing model, price-change terms and other conditions suit you.
Household contracts identified by the API as open-ended. Enter your postcode and annual consumption to compare offers using the existing estimated annual cost. The pricing model is checked separately.
Product details come from open data published by the Finnish Energy Authority’s Sähkönhinta.fi service. Fiksusti syncs the catalogue and filters it by postcode and your choices. We rank results by estimated annual cost using your stated consumption and the product’s energy and monthly charges. Electricity retailers are responsible for product information.
An open-ended contract generally does not have a pre-agreed end date in the same way as a fixed-term agreement. Check the specific offer and contract for its pricing model and terms for ending the agreement.
It may suit someone who does not want a pre-set long contract period and is comfortable with the offer’s pricing and terms. Compare options using your own consumption; the contract type alone does not tell you which offer costs less.
The main distinction is duration. A fixed-term offer has a stated contract period, while an open-ended offer generally has no equivalent pre-agreed end date. Pricing and other terms must be checked separately for each product.
No. Open-ended describes contract duration. Spot pricing describes how the electricity rate is formed. These are separate product details, so check the contract terms.
Price changes depend on the offer and contract terms, as well as the rules in force. Check the supplier’s stated terms and current official consumer guidance. Contract duration alone does not specify how or when a price may change.
Check your agreement and the supplier’s instructions. Requirements can depend on your circumstances and the rules in force. For a specific notice period, confirm the current official consumer guidance or ask the supplier.
There is no general answer. Total cost depends on the energy rate, monthly fee, your consumption and the pricing model. Compare offers using your own usage.
The monthly fee is added to usage-based energy charges. It can make up a larger share of total cost at lower annual consumption, so compare it together with the energy rate.
Enter your postcode and annual consumption in the comparison. The existing tool estimates costs from available product data and ranks offers when it can calculate an estimate. Check any post-promotion rate and the contract terms as well.
A fixed-term offer may suit you if its stated period, pricing and terms fit your needs. Compare the actual product details and your circumstances; neither contract type is automatically better for everyone.
This comparison covers electricity supply contracts. Distribution is a separate service from your local network operator and is not switched in the same way as your electricity supplier.
