How IQCardGuide affiliate links work
Some links can earn IQCardGuide money if you take a qualifying action. You do not have to use them, and compensation does not buy a better ranking or review.
The simple version
If a page contains a compensated link, we disclose that relationship where a reasonable visitor can see it. If you click and later complete a qualifying transaction under that partner's rules, IQCardGuide may receive compensation.
What does not change
- We can recommend a non-paying option when it is the better choice.
- We do not claim firsthand product use when we did not personally use it.
- We do not manufacture positive reviews or hide recurring complaints.
- We do not ask visitors to click ads or affiliate links merely to “support us.”
- We do not disguise affiliate destinations.
Partner rules matter
Different programs have different attribution windows, qualifying transactions, disclosure rules and commission structures. IQCardGuide follows the terms of the specific program rather than assuming every affiliate link works the same way.
Our operating principle:
Help first. Monetize the natural next step.
