How we make money
Today, we don't.
No aged care home or operator pays us anything. None can pay to appear higher, look better, or have a record removed.

Our promises
- Order never depends on money.
- Search results are sorted by place and by how much we have checked. Nothing else.
- Every number keeps its source.
- Each price links to the operator's document, with the date it was published and the date we read it.
- If we start charging, we say so first.
- This page will list what we charge and to whom before it starts, and a home that pays us will carry a clear label on its page.
- Your enquiry stays yours.
- An enquiry comes to our team and is not passed to the home. We will never sell your details. Privacy.

How we may charge later
Comparison and placement services in aged care usually earn a fee from the home when a family moves in. One well-known service publishes a fee of $2,950 plus GST per person placed; many others do not say what they charge.
If we ever take a fee like this, we will publish the amount here, show on each home's page whether that home pays us, and keep homes that pay nothing on the same footing in search and comparison.
If you run a home
Some home pages show up to three photos from the operator's own website. Each is marked as coming from the operator's website and links to the page it was taken from. We do not use photos from My Aged Care. A home without operator photos shows a map of the area and, where a contributor has published one under an open licence, a street photo.
If you run a home and want its photos taken down, or a detail on its page is wrong, email [email protected]. We take photos down when asked. Taking them down does not change a home's place in search or comparison, and it does not hide any record.
What we are not
We are not a government service, and we do not inspect or score homes. We bring published information together so it is easier to compare, and link to the official record for anything we are not yet allowed to show.
