Visitors about our services
Independent and objective
The independence is guaranteed at all times so that consumers can continue to rely on us. The comparisons are therefore always entirely objective. The Bencom Group is not affiliated with an interested company, so providers have no control over the activities and the information on the sites.
For the Bencom Group there is no advantage in giving certain providers priority over others. Providers with whom they have no cooperation are shown in the comparisons as well, even if they come out as best. In addition, the Bencom Group strives to provide the most complete picture of the market as possible by including at least 95% of the market in its comparisons.
How it all began
It all started when the then 13 -year-old Ben Woldring in received a school assignment in 1998 with the aim of creating a website. Ben decided to create a summary of different tariffs for fixed telephony and built the website Bellen.com.

Revenue model
Bencom offers all its services to the consumer free of charge. Usually, visitors have the opportunity to order a product or service directly. This is possible since we transfer the order directly to the site of the provider or online shop, in order to facilitate the switch via Bencom for free. Given that our visitors are often interested in new products and are prepared to purchase various kinds of services, our sites are attractive for advertisers to show their products and services on. It is also possible to advertise using one of our newsletters which have a major range and which will be published at least once a month.
