How We Make Money
Stated plainly, because a finance site that hides this has already told you something.
What to take away
- Some links earn a commission at no cost to you.
- Commission rates never affect rankings or recommendations.
- Products we would not recommend are not listed, regardless of what they pay.
Affiliate relationships
When you open an account through some links on this site, we may receive a commission from the provider. It costs you nothing and does not change the terms you are offered.
What it does not affect
- Which products we recommend.
- The order products appear in.
- What we say about a product’s weaknesses.
- Whether a product with no affiliate programme gets covered — several of our top picks pay us nothing.
Why we say so on every page
Disclosure at the point of reading is more useful than disclosure buried in a footer. Articles with commercial links carry the notice at the top, before the recommendation rather than after it.
Editing this page
If you are running this site, replace this text with your actual arrangements. Inaccurate disclosure is worse than no disclosure, and in the US it carries regulatory consequences under FTC endorsement guidance.
