How you chose the winners

Finder worked with leading insights company Dynata to survey nearly 20,000 Australians across almost 200 categories for our Customer Satisfaction Awards program.

  • Consumers were asked to review a share trading platform they had previously used.
  • Brands had to receive a minimum of 55 responses in this category to be eligible for the award.
  • We then judged them based on 5 categories:
    • Customer service
    • Fees
    • Tools and features
    • Overall experience
    • Recommendation scores
  • Respondents were also asked whether they would recommend each product to a friend. This result was scored out of 5 as a percentage. For example, if 80% of respondents said they would recommend a product, it received a score of 4 out of 5.
  • The final score was calculated as an average of the 5 metrics scored.
  • Finder's Customer Satisfaction Awards is an independent awards program and commercial partnerships do not influence the results in any way.
