Affiliate link

An affiliate link is a link that lets a website earn a commission if you sign up or buy after clicking it, usually at no extra cost to you. poundrate.com uses none: it has no affiliate links, sponsored placements or partner offers, and it earns no commission from any provider. You may meet affiliate links on other sites, where they should be disclosed, and a disclosed link is not a recommendation for your situation. Check any provider yourself whatever route you used to find it. See also: markup, and the guide Money Transfer Scams.
