How we earn
Honest Vows is free to read. We plan to earn from affiliate links, and later possibly from ads. We do not sell listings.
Current status
No affiliate links are live yet. We have not been approved by any affiliate program. When we are, this page will name each program and each link will be labeled.
Our rules
- No paid placements. No venue, vendor, or product pays to appear, or to appear higher.
- Links only where they help a budget. A link appears only when the product is a real budget choice for a step in the plan. Each link has a one-line reason.
- Disclosure first. Every page with an affiliate link will show a disclosure above the first link.
- Prices are dated. Any price we show will have an "as of" date. If we cannot confirm it, we will not show it.
- Editing can remove a link. If a person on our team cannot write an honest reason for a link, the link is removed.
What we will not do
- Charge venues or vendors to be listed.
- Rank vendors by what they pay.
- Scrape retailer pages for prices.
Future revenue
We may later add display ads, and we may offer paid tools or guides. Any paid product will be clearly marked, and the free content will stay free.
