Advertiser Disclosure

How We Make Money

ClearCreditUK operates as a free resource for consumers, and we generate revenue through advertising partnerships and affiliate relationships. Here's how our business model works:

  • Affiliate Partnerships: We may receive compensation when you click on certain links and apply for financial products
  • Display Advertising: We display advertisements from financial services companies
  • Sponsored Content: Occasionally, we may publish sponsored content (clearly labeled)

Important: You never pay extra when using our links. The compensation we receive comes from the financial institutions, not from you.

Editorial Independence

Despite our advertising relationships, we maintain strict editorial independence. Our content is not influenced by our advertising partners, and we are committed to providing unbiased information.

Our Editorial Principles:

  • Editorial content is never influenced by advertising relationships
  • We do not guarantee favorable coverage in exchange for advertising
  • Our reviews and comparisons are based on objective criteria
  • We clearly distinguish between editorial content and advertising
  • Our editorial team operates independently from our commercial team
Types of Compensation

1. Affiliate Commissions

We may receive a commission when you click on certain links and complete an action, such as:

  • Applying for a credit card, loan, or mortgage
  • Opening a savings account or ISA
  • Purchasing insurance products
  • Using financial services or apps

2. Cost Per Click (CPC)

Some partners pay us when you click on their links, regardless of whether you complete an action.

3. Display Advertising

We display banner advertisements and other promotional content from financial services companies on our website.

4. Sponsored Content

Occasionally, we may publish sponsored articles or content. These are always clearly labeled as "Sponsored," "Advertisement," or "Paid Partnership."

Our Advertising Partners

We work with various types of financial services companies, including:

  • Banks and building societies
  • Credit card companies
  • Personal loan providers
  • Mortgage lenders and brokers
  • Insurance companies
  • Investment platforms
  • Financial technology companies

Note: Not all companies we write about are advertising partners. We cover many financial products and services that do not compensate us.

How We Choose What to Feature

Our editorial decisions are based on:

  • Consumer Value: Products and services that offer genuine value to UK consumers
  • Market Relevance: Popular or noteworthy financial products in the UK market
  • Editorial Merit: Topics that help consumers make informed financial decisions
  • Reader Interest: Subjects our audience finds valuable and engaging

Compensation is not a factor in determining what products we feature or how we rank them in our comparisons.
