How we make money

Last updated

PickedTravel is free to read. We earn money mainly when readers buy through affiliate links. This page explains that in plain English. The shorter FTC-style notice is on our affiliate disclosure.

Affiliate commissions

  • Some “Check price” and product links are affiliate links. If you click and buy, a merchant or network may pay us a commission.
  • You do not pay more because you used our link.
  • Affiliate links use rel="sponsored" in code. Monetized articles show a disclosure near the top.

What commissions do not decide

  • Which products we include on a page
  • How we order or frame picks
  • Whether we mention a product’s downsides

We recommend products that do not pay us when they are the better fit, and we do not sell placements or positive coverage.

Programs

We may participate in vendor programs and networks such as Impact, PartnerStack, CJ and Amazon Associates. PickedTravel participates in the Amazon Associates Program. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

Services and software

eSIM apps, insurers and booking tools often have no active affiliate tag on our links until a program is approved. We still link to official pricing or policy pages so you can verify terms yourself. Those links never carry an Amazon tag.
