FTC Disclosure
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), Home Expense Lab discloses that this site may contain affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link and complete a qualifying action (such as making a purchase or signing up for a service), we may receive a commission from the company at no additional cost to you.
This disclosure applies site-wide. You do not need to see an individual disclosure label on every link for this policy to apply.
What Are Affiliate Links?
An affiliate link is a tracked URL that tells a company’s system that you arrived from Home Expense Lab. If you complete a qualifying action after clicking that link — typically a purchase or account signup — the company pays us a referral commission, usually ranging from a few dollars to a percentage of the sale.
The price you pay is identical whether you click an affiliate link or navigate to the company’s site directly. Affiliate commissions are paid by the merchant, not added to your cost.
Categories Where Affiliate Links May Appear
Affiliate links on Home Expense Lab may appear in the following contexts:
- Articles and blog posts recommending financial tools, apps, or services
- Calculator result pages suggesting relevant products or services
- Resource or tools pages listing third-party products
- Email newsletters sent to subscribers
Our Editorial Standards
Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content, calculator results, or recommendations. We do not accept payment to write positive reviews, and we do not recommend products solely because they offer commissions.
Our calculators produce results based purely on the numbers you enter. No affiliate relationship affects the math.
If we recommend a product or service, it’s because we believe it provides genuine value to homeowners and people working to reduce household debt. If we later find that a recommended product no longer meets our standards, we remove or update the recommendation regardless of any affiliate relationship.
Affiliate Programs
Home Expense Lab may participate in affiliate programs including but not limited to programs offered by financial technology companies, personal finance tools, home services, and related products relevant to homeowners and household budgeting. Specific program names will be updated here as affiliate relationships are established.
Amazon Associates
Home Expense Lab may participate in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, we may earn from qualifying purchases.
