Comparing comparison portals? We’ve done it for you.
The cheap gas tariff at CHECK24 looks different from the offer at Verivox. One more bonus, another promotion, or maybe a provider you hadn’t seen before—suddenly, you’re stuck between two searches again.
We compare the comparators for you. At Praedurion, you’ll find all gas tariffs from both portals. Compare them to see which fits your household best, then apply directly from the comparison.
So which portal is cheaper now?
Search on CHECK24. Start again on Verivox. Put prices and promotions side by side. All you really wanted was to switch supplier.
We take care of the second comparison.

Own gas contract? Then you have the choice.
Whether it's a house or a rented apartment: If the gas contract is yours, you can change the supplier yourself, taking into account your contract deadlines. This is often the case with your own gas heating system.
If central heating is covered by additional costs, the contract is usually with the landlord or property management company. You will then not be able to sign a new gas contract for the entire house. Instead, ask the responsible body for a comparison.
This gas comparison is intended for natural gas. Liquefied gas from a tank and district heating are not included.
Your own gas contract
You choose the supplier for your connection, for example for gas heating.
Shared central heating
If the gas contract is held by the landlord or property manager, that contracting party decides whether to switch.
Your gas consumption: The annual bill saves you the hassle of estimating.
To compare gas prices you need kilowatt hours per year. Adopt the kWh value of a complete annual bill. Your monthly payment is an advance payment and does not say how much gas you use.
The meter usually shows cubic meters. The difference between the initial and final readings gives the amount of gas consumed. To convert m³ to kWh, you also need the calorific value and state factor from your bill.
A winter month is not a typical month. So don’t just multiply its consumption by twelve. The living space alone is not enough either: insulation, heating habits and hot water preparation make a difference.

Locate your annual gas consumption on your bill to start comparing providers.
Calculate gas costs: What is the benefit of the tariff without a bonus?
With 18.000 kWh consumption, one cent per kWh corresponds to exactly 180 euros per year. This is a calculation ratio, not a promised savings. Basic price and possible credits are added. Therefore compare the entire annual financial statement.
The example demonstrates how a one-time bonus affects calculations. Your actual contract is based on your bill’s values and the new offer’s terms.
From the cubic meter to the annual costs.
Angenommen sind 11,2 kWh/m³ Brennwert und eine Zustandszahl von 0,95. Der erfundene Tarif kostet 10 ct/kWh und 144,00 € Grundpreis im Jahr. Alle Preise sind brutto; weitere Kosten sind nicht angesetzt.
This refers to the amount used over a whole year, i.e. the difference in the meter readings. The calorific value and condition number remain fixed here for illustrative purposes.
With the bonus, the comparison price drops in the first year. This does not change the unit price or the basic price.
1.500 m³ × 0,95 × 11,2 kWh/m³
15.960 kWh- Verbrauchskosten bei 10 ct/kWh
- 1.596,00 €
- Standing charge per year
- 144,00 €
- Deducted one-time bonus
- 0,00 €
- Annual costs in the example
- 1.740,00 €
- Calculated monthly value
- 145,00 €
Without bonus. Only consumption costs and the basic price are added together.
This is an example calculation, not a quote or a consumption forecast. Use the factors from your billing for your connection; they may differ. The energy amount is rounded to two decimal places, monetary amounts to cents. The monthly value is not an installment. Payout conditions are assumed for the bonus. Your selection remains on this page and is neither saved nor sent.
A bonus can make a good move even more attractive. Nevertheless, look at the running costs. A comparison price spread over twelve months is not automatically your discount, especially if the credit comes later.
Compare with my gas consumptionCompare gas tariffs that match your plans.
If the price is right, you still need to look at the contract term. An offer should save you money without locking you in with unsuitable conditions.
The entire annual bill counts
When there is high heating demand, every cent per kilowatt hour counts. If consumption is low, the basic price becomes more important. Compare both together for your gas quantity.
The costs of your current contract are the benchmark for your potential savings.
A bonus that you also receive
Before switching, check whether you qualify as a new customer and how long you must remain supplied to receive the credit. Contracts with another brand of the same provider may also be relevant.
Pay attention to the payout date. A later bonus does not reduce today's direct debit.
No unnecessarily long commitment
The term and notice period should suit your plans. If you are planning to move, it is worth checking the regulations for the new address before signing the contract.
A low starting price is no reason to accept an unsuitable term.
More clarity on the price guarantee
Which components are protected and for how long? Taxes, duties or CO₂ costs may be excluded from a limited warranty. Read the specific promise.
A guarantee until a fixed date may end before the contract.
Be careful with high advance payments and package tariffs. You bear the risk of failure or may pay more if consumption differs. Such offers may be included. Even a favorable forecast value with variable prices does not guarantee constant annual costs.
Switch gas supplier. It stays warm at home.
When changing providers normally, the heating and pipes remain unchanged. This does not interrupt the gas supply. You change the delivery contract; There is no additional change fee for the change of supplier itself.
Find the right tariff
Compare with your annual consumption and your previous costs. Take the term and bonus conditions into account when making your decision.
Apply to switch here
Check address, connection details, and contract documents. The switch is only ordered with your explicit confirmation.
Confirm the supply start date
The new provider can usually handle the standard termination. Check the dates and record the meter reading for the switch.
For basic services, you can cancel in text form with two weeks’ notice. The terms and conditions apply to special contracts. A quick technical change does not cancel the remaining contract term.
When a unilateral price change occurs, you generally have a special right of termination that becomes effective immediately; legal exceptions may apply. If the deadline is tight, cancel the contract yourself in a verifiable manner and inform the new provider.
Think about gas in good time when moving.
Do you even need your own gas contract in your new apartment? With central heating, the cost is often included in service charges. If you want your own connection, arrange the supply start date early.
When handing over, record the meter number, meter reading and date. The exact delivery address and the market location ID, or MaLo-ID for short, if available, will help with the application.
§ 41b EnWG generally provides for termination with six weeks' notice for household customers with a special contract when moving. Share the new address or delivery point ID. If your provider offers to continue the contract under the previous conditions at the new location within two weeks of receipt of the cancellation and can deliver there, this special right of cancellation does not apply.
You can find out what else is coming up in the overview of your first own apartment.

When moving in, write down the meter number, meter reading and handover date.
Biogas or climate gas: what would you like to pay for?
A green tariff name does not answer this question. Look at the promised service and its proof.
Biomethane in the tariff
What counts here is the reported proportion of treated biogas. It can be below 100 percent. Also check raw materials and certificates of origin.
If you need a certain proportion due to the requirements of your heating system, have the suitability checked separately.
Climate-neutral gas with compensation
This could be fossil natural gas, whose emissions are to be offset through projects. How reliable this is depends on the projects and evidence.
A CO₂ offset does not turn natural gas into biomethane.
Praedurion adopts the tariff labeling of the portals and does not issue its own environmental certification. If you want to pursue other contracts: you can also find our Electricity comparison with CHECK24 and Verivox and the DSL comparison you can find it with us.
Don’t miss your next switch again.
Finding a good deal today is one thing. But later, the cancellation notice period easily slips your mind in daily life.
That’s why we are planning a switch alert: it is meant to notify you when your contract can be switched again and there are cheaper suitable alternatives. You shouldn’t have to start the search from scratch every time.
The switch alert is not active yet. Until then, please note the end of your contract and the notice period yourself. A comparison or contract does not activate any notifications.
Questions before your gas comparison
Which gas provider is the cheapest?
This depends on where you live, annual consumption and current offers. Compare the total costs for the same information. A large bonus can push a plan forward in the first year, while its ongoing costs are higher. At Praedurion you can compare the available offers from CHECK24 and Verivox together with your previous contract.
Why start your gas comparison at Praedurion?
Because it saves you from searching on another comparison portal. CHECK24 and Verivox may offer different deals and terms. We compare both for you in one place. If a suitable tariff can be concluded online, you can start the application directly with Praedurion.
As a tenant, can I change gas provider?
Yes, if you are a contractual partner of the gas supplier, for example with your own gas boiler. The term and notice period of your contract then apply. If central heating is billed through the landlord or property management company, you cannot change their gas contract on your own. Then contact the responsible office about a tariff comparison.
Do I need m³ or kWh for the gas comparison?
You need the annual consumption in kilowatt hours. The gas meter usually shows cubic meters. The easiest way is to take the kWh consumption from a complete annual bill. To convert the cubic meters consumed, you also need calorific value and condition number. A single meter reading is not yet consumption information.
Should I compare gas without a bonus?
Yes. Multiply your annual consumption by the unit price and add the annual fixed fee to see ongoing costs without a one-time bonus. This helps if you plan to keep the contract long-term. The monthly average including bonus may differ from your actual monthly payment. The provider’s payment schedule determines your actual payments.
How quickly can I switch gas providers?
For the basic gas supply, you can cancel in text form with two weeks' notice. For a special contract, it depends on its term, notice period and possible special termination rights. The new provider confirms the start of delivery. A quick technical process does not shorten an ongoing contractual commitment.
Does the heating stay on when you change provider?
The normal change of supplier does not interrupt your gas supply. The pipes and your heating remain unchanged. Record the meter reading on the confirmed change date. Technical disruptions or a supply cut for other reasons are to be distinguished from this.
Are biogas and greenhouse gas the same thing?
No. A biogas tariff can contain a designated proportion of biomethane. With climate gas, however, fossil natural gas can still be supplied, the emissions of which are to be offset through projects. Check the proportion, origin and evidence of the specific offer. Praedurion does not issue its own environmental certification.
Can I apply for the new gas contract directly here?
Yes, for offers that can be completed online, the comparison goes directly to the application at Praedurion. A tariff query alone does not order anything. You first check the contract overview and documents and expressly confirm the order. The provider then confirms acceptance and start of delivery.
