The fine print

Affiliate disclosure

The short version: we have no active paid affiliate relationships and have not applied to the programs listed below. Links currently earn us no commission. We may apply after incorporation and will update this page when that changes.

How provider links work

Provider links using /go/ currently redirect to plain provider URLs. Those routes let us manage destinations consistently and may carry affiliate tracking in the future. Pages using them already show a disclosure. We will identify active relationships here before using tracked links.

The rules we hold ourselves to

  • Recommendations are decided before money is considered. Where the best option pays nothing, it's still the pick, stated plainly.
  • Renewal prices lead every comparison. Teaser pricing is the industry's favourite trick; we refuse to sort by it.
  • Every price is dated and sourced from the provider's own pricing pages, and we correct errors when readers flag them.
  • No pay-to-play. Providers cannot pay for placement, better positions in tables, or softer language about their gotchas.
  • Affiliate links are marked with rel="sponsored" for search engines, per Google's guidelines, and disclosed for humans, per FTC (US) and Competition Bureau (Canada) guidance.

Current affiliate relationships

None. Spaceship, Hostinger, and Zoho are possible future programs; applications are on hold pending incorporation. A recommendation is not evidence of a paid relationship.
