Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency and trust are important to us. This page explains how we monetize our free mortgage calculator and maintain our commitment to providing accurate, unbiased information.
What is Affiliate Marketing?
Affiliate marketing is a way for websites to earn revenue by promoting products or services from other companies. When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.
