We want to be upfront and clear about how we run things here.
To keep our site running, we use a mix of affiliate links, sponsorships and display adverts.
Affiliate links
We include links to products or services on Skint Dad – some of these links may be an affiliate link.
If you click on these links and decide to make a purchase, we might earn a small commission. This is usually 1% – 4% of what you buy.
This is at no extra cost to you.
Think of it as a way of supporting us to keep offering great money-saving tips, without dipping into your own pocket!
We’re here to help you save money, not spend more of it unnecessarily.
We’re not influenced by these commissions and only suggest products or services that we believe will be of good value, beneficial and helpful for you.
We’re not just about making a quick buck – your trust and financial well-being are our top priorities.
We work with a number of affiliate networks, including Skimlinks, AWIN and Amazon. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Cookies
When you click on an affiliate link, “cookies” are used. Cookies are small bits of data stored on your device that remember you visited a website, so if you make a purchase, the site knows it was thanks to us.
They don’t collect personal information like your name or email. They’re just there to help track the success of our affiliate links.
You can read more about our Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy.
Sponsored content
Occasionally, we feature sponsored content where companies pay us to showcase their deals, products or services.
These posts are always clearly marked at the top of the content, so you know when a post is sponsored.
Believe me; we turn down more sponsorship requests than we accept because we want to make sure it’s of genuine value and relevance to you.
Display adverting
You’ll also notice display advertising on our site.
These are visual ads, like banners, videos, or sidebar images, provided by advertising partners and are auto-generated based on your browsing interests.
When these ads are viewed or clicked on, we earn a bit of revenue.
Just like our other content, these ads are selected with care, and we have made a choice to remove categories that we believe can cause you harm (for instance, you should never see gambling and high-interest loan adverts).
Transparency
We believe in being as clear as possible about how we operate.
We mark each post to say that it may include affiliate links.
For ease of browsing the site, assume that any link could be an affiliate link and that sponsored content is marked as such.
Our goal is to maintain your trust and confidence in our recommendations.
