VeriLots Affiliate Disclosure

Last Updated: September 24, 2025

At VeriLots, transparency is the foundation of everything we do. Our mission is to provide you with the most accurate, objective, and comprehensive cost analysis of online brokers, and we believe being open about how we operate is a critical part of that mission. This page explains our use of affiliate marketing and, most importantly, our unwavering commitment to editorial integrity.

 

What is an Affiliate Relationship?

VeriLots participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means that when you click on links to some of the brokers listed on our site and proceed to open an account, we may receive a commission from that broker.

 

This is a common practice for comparison and review websites and is one of our primary sources of revenue.

 

Does This Cost You Anything Extra?

No. Absolutely not.

 

Using our affiliate links will never result in any additional cost or different terms for you. The commercial arrangement is strictly between VeriLots and the broker. You receive the exact same service and pricing from the broker as you would if you had visited their site directly.

 

Our Unwavering Commitment to Objectivity (The Integrity Promise)

This is the most important section of this disclosure and the cornerstone of our brand.

 

Our affiliate relationships have zero influence on our data, methodology, or rankings. We are a data-driven company first and foremost.

 

• • Complete Independence: Our research, data collection, calculations, and broker rankings are conducted with 100% editorial independence.
• • Data is Sacred: Affiliate partnerships do not—and will never—influence the data we present, the formulas in our "True Cost Calculator," or the final ranking of any broker.
• • You Cannot Buy a Better Rank: A broker cannot pay VeriLots to improve its ranking, alter its fee data, or receive a more favorable review. Our results are driven solely by our objective analysis. If a broker scores well, it's because their fee structure is genuinely competitive based on our calculations.

 

Our reputation is built on providing users with unbiased, accurate information. Compromising this principle would undermine the very reason VeriLots exists.

 

Why We Use Affiliate Links: Keeping VeriLots Free

The affiliate revenue we generate is what allows us to operate and grow. It enables us to:

 

• • Fund Our In-Depth Research: We invest thousands of hours into meticulously collecting and verifying broker fee data.
• • Develop Our Technology: This revenue funds the complex technology behind our "True Cost Calculator," including our next-generation data-gathering tools (like the Phase 3 bots).
• • Keep Our Core Service Free: Our business model allows us to provide our powerful comparison tools to the public free of charge.

 

Essentially, by using our links, you get access to our premium research at no cost to you, and you help support our mission to bring more transparency to the financial industry.
