Affiliate disclosure

BonusMantra may use affiliate links, but official source clarity should come first.

This page explains how affiliate relationships may appear on BonusMantra and the standards used to keep those placements secondary to the main source, explanation, and user decision-making process.

Core disclosure rule

  • Official source links should be primary when a page covers a real program, course, or opportunity.
  • Affiliate links should not be used to hide cost, urgency, or quality risks.
  • Readers should be able to understand what is affiliate-linked before clicking.

What an affiliate link means here

An affiliate link may generate a commission for BonusMantra if a user clicks and later completes a purchase, signup, or qualifying action with a third party. This does not automatically mean the recommendation is bad, but it does mean the relationship should be disclosed clearly.

How affiliate content should be placed

BonusMantra should keep the official source first, then the main explanation, then any optional media or supporting context, and only then an affiliate or related CTA when it is genuinely relevant. That order reduces trust risk and helps users evaluate the real source before any monetized option.

What BonusMantra should avoid

The site should avoid stuffing unrelated affiliate links into pages, placing affiliate CTAs before the official source, or using promotional language that overstates value, certainty, or urgency just to increase clicks.

Reader expectations

Users should assume that some pages may contain affiliate relationships, but those relationships should not replace transparent explanation. If an opportunity is not worth recommending without an affiliate link, it is probably not worth recommending at all.

How this connects to trust

Affiliate disclosure is part of the broader trust model. A page becomes safer when it clearly shows the official source, cost, effort, and risk signals before any monetized CTA. That is also why the verification page and editorial policy matter alongside this disclosure.

Questions about a recommendation

If a user thinks a page is too promotional, unclear about its relationship, or missing an appropriate disclosure, that should be reported through the contact page so the content can be reviewed and corrected.

Want to check how recommendations are reviewed?

Use the verification page to understand source scoring and risk checks, or use the contact page if a recommendation looks weak, misleading, or improperly disclosed.
