Affiliate Disclosure

Transparency is a core value at SeniorsList. This page explains how we earn revenue through affiliate partnerships and why those relationships never compromise the honesty of our reviews.

FTC Disclosure

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), SeniorsList discloses that we may receive compensation when you click links on our site and purchase products or services from our partners. This compensation may affect which products we write about and where they appear on the site, but it does not influence our evaluations, ratings, or recommendations.

How Affiliate Links Work

Some of the links on SeniorsList are affiliate links. Here is what that means in practice:

  1. You click a link: When you click an affiliate link on our site, you are directed to the product or service provider's website.
  2. A cookie is placed: The provider's website may place a small tracking cookie on your browser to identify that you were referred by SeniorsList.
  3. You make a purchase (or don't): If you decide to purchase the product or sign up for the service, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
  4. No extra cost: Clicking an affiliate link and purchasing through it does not increase the price you pay. The commission comes from the provider, not from you.

Editorial Independence

Our affiliate partnerships do not affect our editorial integrity. We maintain strict boundaries between our business and editorial teams:

  • Product ratings and rankings are determined solely by our editorial team based on research, testing, and analysis.
  • Writers and editors are never compensated based on affiliate clicks or revenue generated by their articles.
  • We frequently recommend products and services from companies with which we have no affiliate relationship.
  • If a product performs poorly in our testing, we say so — regardless of any affiliate partnership.
  • Companies cannot pay for higher ratings, favorable reviews, or guaranteed placement in our content.

How We Choose What to Review

Our editorial calendar is driven by what matters most to our readers, not by which companies offer the highest commissions. We select products and services to review based on reader demand, market relevance, and the availability of meaningful differences between options. If a category has no suitable affiliate programs, we still cover it because our readers need the information.

Types of Compensation

SeniorsList may receive compensation in the following forms:

  • Affiliate commissions: A percentage or flat fee when you purchase a product or service through one of our links.
  • Lead generation fees: Compensation when you submit your information through a form on our site or a partner's site.
  • Display advertising: Revenue from advertisements displayed on our pages, which are clearly distinguished from editorial content.

Your Trust Matters

We understand that trust is earned. If you ever believe that an affiliate relationship has influenced our content, we want to hear about it. Please contact us and we will investigate. You can also review our full editorial guidelines for a detailed look at how we maintain independence.
