Affiliate disclosure
The site makes money from labelled partner links, never from the ranking. This page says exactly how.
The plain version
Some pages carry a block marked Partners. The links in it go to companies that pay Real Lease Cost a commission when you use them, for example when you ask for an insurance quote or apply for a loan through the link. The price you pay does not change. The commission is how the site makes money without selling the ranking.
Where you see it
- Beside every partner link, the words: "Paid link: Real Lease Cost earns a commission if you use this partner. It does not affect our ranking."
- Above the block: "We may earn a commission."
- Partner links carry
rel="sponsored"so search engines read them as paid.
What it never does
- A partner never appears inside the ranked table.
- A partner never changes a row's score, position or badge.
- A dealer, a broker or a lessor cannot buy a place in the table. There is no price for a rank.
- No partner sees who you are until you choose to go to their site.
Today
When no partner is live, the Partners block does not appear at all. We never show a placeholder partner.
