Octopus Electricity Tracker
The Octopus Tracker energy tariff is a market-linked deal where your electricity and gas prices update daily in line with wholesale costs. Instead of waiting for the price cap to move every three months, Tracker reflects real market prices much more quickly.

Because the tariff follows wholesale energy, it has often beaten standard tariffs over the longer term. But prices can rise quickly during volatile periods, so it suits households comfortable with some day-to-day movement.
