Affiliate Disclosure
We believe in radical transparency about how we make money. Here it is, straight and clear.
Last updated: 14 July 2026
Short version: Some outbound links on VPN Reviews are affiliate links. If you click one and sign up or purchase, we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. This never affects what we recommend, and we keep no pay-to-rank lists.
How we're funded
VPN Reviews is reader-supported. We do not sell sponsored posts, accept payments for rankings, or run display advertisements. Our sole source of revenue is affiliate commissions from a small number of VPN and online-safety products that we genuinely believe are worth considering.
Our affiliate tag
We use the Amazon affiliate tag faiza0d2-21 for any Amazon-related links. For VPN affiliate links, we work directly with provider programmes, always clearly marked.
It never affects our advice
We have a strict editorial firewall between affiliate relationships and our content. If a product is mediocre, we say so, even if we have an affiliate link. If we recommend a product, it's because we believe it meets our criteria, never because of a commission. Our editorial principles explain this in detail.
What we recommend
We don't publish "top 10" lists or league tables. Instead, we teach you the criteria that genuinely matter, independent audits, no-logs policy, jurisdiction, encryption standards, so you can evaluate any VPN on its merits. See our How to Choose a VPN guide for the full framework.
