Affiliate disclosure

Some benefit claim links may be affiliate or referral links. If you use one of those links, Student Benefits Intelligence may receive a commission or referral credit at no additional cost to you.

Revenue does not affect rankings

Affiliate relationships do not influence benefit ranking, recommendation order, eligibility scoring, verification status, or editorial conclusions. A non-monetized benefit can rank above a monetized benefit whenever it is more relevant or useful.

Official sources stay available

Monetized links are kept separate from the official provider or program source used to verify the benefit. Benefit pages continue to provide the official verification source so students can confirm current terms.

How links are labeled

When a claim link is monetized, the benefit page identifies it as an affiliate or referral link. We do not disguise affiliate links as official-source links.
