Here are the winners at this year's bonkers.ie Awards

Our annual awards are always a big night in the bonkers.ie calendar!

The awards are about celebrating companies that provide exceptional value and service to consumers in Ireland and this year there were over 30 companies represented in 17 award categories. 

These were our biggest awards yet and we didn't hold back with the celebrations at the black-tie extravaganza. 

The event was presided over by Irish radio star and comedian Oliver Callan who assumed the mantle with aplomb for the second year running. 

Speaking about the event, the founder and Group CEO of bonkers.ie, David Kerr said: “The past few years have seen a big rise in the cost of living. That’s why these awards are especially meaningful, as they celebrate the companies that go the extra mile to support consumers and provide good value.  Since we started in 2010, the mission of bonkers.ie has remained the same – to help consumers find the best products from suppliers in Ireland and get better value. With so many people focused on managing their expenses, I’m proud that bonkers.ie continues to play such an essential role in helping households across Ireland save money.”

The winners

An Post Money, Revolut, Vodafone and Irish Life were among the big winners on the night where awards in 17 categories were handed out. 

Vodafone picked up the trophy for best rewards or loyalty programme, for Happy, which it launched last year. Its subsidiary Clear Mobile also picked up an award for best sim-only deal.

Revolut picked up the award for best current account for the second year running with the judges commending the bank for redefining expectations of what a current account can do and offer.

Irish Life picked up the award for best community or charity engagement with the judges impressed by the outstanding contribution that its staff charities programme has made to the community over the past few decades, the deep level of staff engagement, as well as the sums of money raised.

And Virgin Media won the hotly contested category for best broadband provider with the company commended for providing high speeds, excellent value bundles, and the choice of a 24-month contract which can provide better value over the medium term.  

But the biggest winner of the night was An Post Money which picked up awards for best credit card, best customer service and the Grand Prix for best consumer business 2025.

Commenting on The Grand Prix winner, Chairperson of the judging panel, Bobby Kerr said: “Tonight’s winner has shown innovation, a strong focus on putting its customers first, as well as a commitment to delivering excellent value. And this is exemplified by the trust the public has in the brand and its parent. They are a truly deserving winner of our highest honour tonight.”

Charity auction 

The night also saw a raffle for several prizes in aid of ARC Cancer Support Centres.

ARC is a registered charity that provides support to men, women and children living with cancer, and those who care for them, through psychological, emotional, practical and educational support. With all services free of charge.

We're delighted to say over €4,000 was raised for the worthy cause.  

Well done to all our prize winners!
