Money and rankings share every review site’s building; this page shows you our floor plan. It’s short because the rules are absolute.
How this site is funded
Through affiliate relationships — currently one, disclosed by name: NexLife, via our operator Sam LLC. When readers engage with partner links, we may earn compensation at no cost to them. No display-ad networks, no sponsored posts, no selling of reader data. One revenue mechanism, stated plainly, governed by everything below.
What compensation can never buy
Rankings, scores, or placement — the rubric is public and applies identically to payer and non-payer. Verified status — figures enter the ledger only through the checkout protocol, partner included, and “pending” appears wherever verification hasn’t. Editorial conclusions — the evidence library cites trials by name precisely so you can audit us past our incentives. Silence — partner shortcomings meeting our standards get published like anyone’s, and the corrections lane stays open to all comers, sponsor complaints included.
How paid relationships are marked
Every commercial page carries the disclosure strip naming the material connection — the same one visible on this page. Partner links are ordinary links; we don’t disguise them as citations, and we don’t plant them in evidence articles as if they were sources. If you ever find the line blurred, that’s a corrections report we’ll act on within five business days.
What we’ll never run
Paid placements in comparison pages or “best” lists; advertorials; urgency mechanics (countdown timers, fake scarcity) on anything; compensation-contingent review edits; and undisclosed relationships of any kind. The manipulation patterns we document in this market are patterns we’re structurally barred from using — by this page, which readers are invited to enforce.
Why one partner, and what changes if that grows
Sequencing honesty: a new site verifies what it can reach and discloses what it earns. If additional partnerships form, each gets named here, each row still earns its figures through the identical protocol, and this page’s rules bind them all. The alternative business models in this niche — rented rankings, undisclosed placements — are cheaper and invisible; the entire bet of this site is that you can tell the difference.
The one-line version
We tell you who pays us, we mark where they appear, and we’ve built the scoring so it doesn’t matter — then published the machinery so you can check.
