Affiliate disclosure

Plain English · Updated September 2026

TripRanked is an affiliate website. That means some links on this site are special tracking links. If you click one and then buy or book something, the company may pay us a commission.

Does it cost you more?

No. Affiliate links should not raise the price you pay. The partner shares a portion of their revenue with us for the referral.

Does money affect rankings?

Commissions available to publishers are one factor we consider (because this site has to be sustainable), alongside public reputation and product features. We label rankings as editorial and we do not invent fake test scores. We still try to describe pros and cons honestly so you can decide.

FTC note

In the United States, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) expects us to tell you when content is promotional or when we may earn money from a recommendation. This page — and short notes near our “Try” links and footers — are how we do that.

Placeholder links

Until real affiliate IDs are added, many “Try” buttons point to https://example.com/aff/… placeholders. Replace those with your live program links when you join networks such as Travelpayouts, Booking.com Affiliate, or Expedia Partner Solutions / affiliate channels.
