Affiliate Disclosure
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials, hakaru.io provides this disclosure regarding affiliate relationships.
How We Earn Revenue
hakaru.io is a free service. We do not charge for any of our tools, and we do not require signups or subscriptions. To support the ongoing development and maintenance of the Site, some pages on hakaru.io contain affiliate links.
When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase or sign up for a service, we may receive a small commission from the merchant at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the merchant's website.
What We Link To
Our affiliate links may include, but are not limited to, the following types of products and services:
- Tax preparation software (e.g., TurboTax, H&R Block, TaxAct)
- Financial services (e.g., savings accounts, investment platforms, budgeting tools)
- Legal services (e.g., legal document platforms, business formation services)
- Insurance products (e.g., health, life, auto insurance comparison tools)
- Mortgage and lending services (e.g., mortgage lenders, refinancing platforms)
- Business tools (e.g., payroll software, accounting platforms, website builders)
- Health and wellness products (e.g., fitness apps, nutrition services)
- Educational resources (e.g., online courses, certification programs)
Our Independence
Affiliate relationships do not influence our tool outputs, recommendations, or editorial content. Our calculators produce the same results regardless of whether affiliate links are present. We recommend products and services that we believe are genuinely useful to our visitors, and we will never recommend a product solely because of an affiliate relationship.
We strive to be transparent about when and where affiliate links appear. Links that are part of an affiliate relationship are clearly labeled with “Sponsored” indicators so you always know when a link may generate revenue for us.
Your Trust Matters
We understand that trust is earned. If we ever recommend a product or service, it is because we believe it provides genuine value. If you have concerns about any recommendation on our Site, please do not hesitate to reach out.
You are never obligated to click on or purchase through our affiliate links. If you prefer, you can navigate directly to any merchant's website independently.
