Advertising Policy

WealthSort is supported by advertising and partnerships. This page explains how ads work on our site and how we protect editorial independence.

Editorial Independence

We maintain a strict separation between:

  • Editorial (writers, editors, fact-checkers, reviewers)
    and
  • Revenue (advertising/partnerships)

Advertisers do not influence what we publish, how we rate products, or how we rank recommendations.

Types of Advertising We May Run

  • Display advertising (including programmatic)
  • Sponsorships
  • Native/partner content
  • Affiliate links (commission-based)

How We Label Sponsored and Partner Content

If content is paid for or provided by a partner, we clearly label it using terms such as:

  • Sponsored Content
  • Partner Content
  • Presented by [Brand]

We also use visual cues (design differences and/or brand attribution) so readers can immediately understand the content type.

Affiliate Links and Disclosures

Some pages include affiliate links. When they do, we place a clear disclosure near the top of the page and/or near relevant links.

Ad Targeting, Cookies, and Consent

We may use cookies or similar technologies for advertising and measurement. Where required, we request consent via our cookie banner and honor applicable opt-out signals (including Global Privacy Control, when applicable). California Attorney General

What We Don’t Accept

We do not knowingly accept advertising for exploitative or “toxic” financial products that could materially harm readers.
