Affiliate Disclosure

Affiliate Disclosure

The Freedom Number participates in affiliate programs. This means that some links on this website are affiliate links — if you click through and make a purchase or sign up for a service, I may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

Why I use affiliate links

Running a website costs money (hosting, tools, domain, etc.). Affiliate income helps offset those costs and supports the creation of free content and tools.

My commitment to you

Affiliate relationships never influence what I recommend. I only promote products and services I genuinely use, have researched, or believe provide real value to people on the financial independence path. If a product pays a high commission but isn’t good, I won’t recommend it.

This disclosure complies with the requirements of the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), the New Zealand Advertising Standards Authority, and Canadian requirements under both Ad Standards (formerly Advertising Standards Canada) and Canada’s Competition Bureau under the Competition Act — which requires clear and conspicuous disclosure of material connections between a reviewer and the products or services they recommend.
