Welcome to ReviewsUSAA.com! We are dedicated to providing you with valuable information and resources to help you make informed decisions. To maintain transparency and clarity, we want to be upfront about how we generate revenue and sustain our website. This page explains our affiliate relationships and provides essential disclosures.
What is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a common practice where a website (the “affiliate”) earns a commission by promoting the products or services of another company (the “merchant”). When you click on a link on our website and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the merchant at no extra cost to you. This helps us to continue providing you with high-quality content and maintaining our website.
Think of it as a referral fee. We recommend products and services we believe are valuable to our users, and in return, we may receive a small percentage of the sale. This is a win-win situation: you get access to helpful recommendations, and we get support to keep our website running.
How Affiliate Links Work on ReviewsUSAA.com
Throughout our website, you will find links to various products and services. Some of these links are affiliate links, indicated by a special tracking code. When you click on these links, a cookie (a small text file) may be placed on your browser. This cookie allows the merchant to track your purchase and attribute it to ReviewsUSAA.com. The cookie typically expires within a specific timeframe (e.g., 24 hours to 30 days), meaning that we may only receive a commission if you make a purchase within that period after clicking the link.
It’s important to understand that clicking on an affiliate link does not affect the price you pay. You will pay the same price as if you had visited the merchant’s website directly. The commission we receive is paid by the merchant, not by you.
Amazon Associates Program Disclosure
We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. This means that when you click on a link to Amazon.com from our website and make a purchase, we may receive a commission. This helps support our website and allows us to continue providing valuable content to our readers. We only recommend products we believe are of high quality and relevant to our audience.
Our Commitment to Objectivity
While we may receive compensation for some of our recommendations, we are committed to providing honest and unbiased reviews. Our primary goal is to provide you with accurate and helpful information to assist you in making informed decisions. We strive to present a balanced perspective, highlighting both the pros and cons of the products and services we review.
We do not allow our affiliate relationships to influence our reviews. We are not paid to write positive reviews, and we always strive to present our honest opinion, regardless of whether or not we are affiliated with a particular company. Our reputation is important to us, and we value the trust of our readers above all else.
