Off Peak power plan
On our Off Peak plan, it's easy to control how much you pay for your power. By shifting usage of big-ticket items like charging your EV, doing a load of washing, and running the dishwasher to cheaper off-peak times, you can bank savings with cheaper power prices.
Why choose Off Peak?
It’s all about those sweet savings. You'll have access to cheaper rates 76% of the week – from 11am to 5pm and 9pm to 7am on weekdays, and all weekend from 12am Saturday to 6.59am Monday.
Move your appliance use to off-peak hours when electricity prices are cheaper, because the more you shift, the more you save. And bonus, using power off-peak is kinder to the environment, too!
We know you’ll still need to use power during peak times, so we’ve made sure our peak rate is still fairly priced. And as with all things Flick, there’s no fixed-term contracts or exit fees.
This plan is for you if:
You’re a bargain-hunter. Off Peak is better than a Boxing Day sale, with cheaper prices every day and night, and on the weekends
You’re keen to save money on your power bill without having to use less power
You typically use lots of power in off-peak hours already (Flick yeah, this plan was made for you), or it’s a change you reckon you’ll be able to make
How Off Peak works:
Get limbo low prices in off-peak times - we’re the only electricity retailer giving all Kiwis access to cheaper off-peak prices across the whole weekend!
Use the Flick app to keep track of your off-peak times
Shift your power use to off-peak hours and cash in on those super savings
The more you shift, the more you save.
With Off Peak, the power’s in your hands. By making a few small changes to when you consume your power, cheaper power prices are yours for the taking - think late-night laundry, baking Sundays, and dishwashing at dawn. Shift like a boss and watch the savings mount up.
This plan includes our Flickin' Best Plan Promise.
We’ll be able to tell you if your electricity usage data means that you’re on the best Flick plan for your household, or if there’s savings to be made by changing to a different Flick plan. Easy!

FAQs
What are the Off Peak hours?
Off-peak hours are 11am-5pm, 9pm-7am and all weekend from 12am Saturday - 6.59am Monday.
How much cheaper is off-peak than peak?
This depends which network you’re in, what your meter set-up is, and whether you're a Low or Standard User. The best way to check is to enter your address in our Address Checker and take a look at your per unit prices for peak and off-peak times.
What are the Off Peak plan terms and conditions?
You can read the full Off Peak terms and conditions here.
How much can I save on my bill if I move usage to off-peak?
It’s over to you how much you save - as we like to say, the power's in your hands. Flick's rate for off-peak (and, actually, our peak rate, too) is one of the best hourly kilowatt rates out there, so we'd suggest trying a bill compare to see what you’d save with Flick on our standard rate, then have a think about how much power you'll be able to shift to off-peak to maximise those savings.
