Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: 3 October 2026
Plain-English summary: some of the financial products we mention (savings accounts, investment platforms, credit checks, cards, etc.) are affiliate links — if you click through and take out a product, we may earn a commission, at no extra cost to you. We only list products we'd genuinely point a friend toward, and every affiliate link on the site is labelled "Affiliate" so it's never hidden.

1. What affiliate links are
An affiliate link is a tracked link to a third-party company's product or service. If you click it and go on to take out that product (for example, opening a savings account or signing up for a credit-checking service), that company may pay us a small commission. This does not change the price you pay or the product you receive in any way.
2. Where they appear on Wealth Compare
- In your personalised comparison report, under "Products related to your focus areas"
- Throughout the Solutions page, across savings, investing, debt, financial advice, income, credit score, apps, insurance and learning categories
Current status: we do not have any live affiliate partnerships yet, so every link to another company on Wealth Compare is currently a plain link that earns us nothing. As partnerships are agreed, those specific links will change to affiliate links and carry the label described here.
Every affiliate link is marked with a clearly visible "Affiliate" label, and we will label any affiliate link in our emails in the same way. We never disguise an affiliate link as independent editorial content.
3. How products are chosen
We aim to only feature products and providers we believe offer genuine value, based on factors like the provider's reputation, terms, and relevance to the specific result in your report. Being an affiliate partner is not, by itself, a guarantee of inclusion — and being included does not mean a product is "the best" or only option available; you should compare alternatives independently before making a decision. Some resources we link to (for example, free debt advice charities) are not affiliate relationships at all, and are labelled accordingly.
4. Credit score checks specifically
Wealth Compare does not perform credit checks itself and is not a credit reference agency. Where we mention checking your credit score, we link to established third-party credit-monitoring services (such as the type of free services offered by major UK credit reference agencies and comparison platforms). These checks are usually "soft" checks that do not affect your credit score, but you should always confirm this directly with the provider before proceeding.
5. A note on financial promotions & regulation
Wealth Compare is not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), and nothing on this site is a personal recommendation or regulated financial advice. We provide general, factual, and educational comparison information. Where we link to regulated financial products (such as savings accounts, investment platforms, or credit products), those products are provided by FCA-authorised firms, and your relationship with them — including any advice or recommendation specific to your circumstances — is with that firm directly, not with Wealth Compare.
The promotion of financial products in the UK is subject to specific rules under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 and FCA rules on financial promotions, including rules around fair, clear, and not misleading communication. We aim to comply with the "financial promotion" exemptions available to non-regulated comparison/information sites by keeping our content general and factual, clearly labelling commercial relationships, and avoiding personalised investment or credit recommendations.
6. B2B and partner relationships
Separately from consumer affiliate links, Wealth Compare may also work with businesses through employer wellbeing arrangements, disclosed partnership placements, aggregated market insights, and bespoke white-label projects, described on our For Business page. These are commercial B2B relationships and are distinct from the consumer-facing affiliate links described above; they never involve sharing individually identifiable user data (see our Privacy Policy).
