Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 2026-05-04

The short version

Some of the “Apply” links on Claimful are affiliate links. When you click one and complete a sign-up at the destination (a bank, a credit card, etc.), the merchant may pay us a commission. This costs you nothing— the bonus, signup amount, or product price is the same whether or not you arrived via our link.

Where this applies

Affiliate links mostly cover bank sign-up bonuses, credit card sign-ups, and brokerage promotions. Class-action settlements and government benefits have no commission and never use affiliate links.

Every opportunity card and detail page shows a small “We may earn a commission” badge next to the Apply button when an affiliate link is involved. If the badge isn’t there, neither is the commission.

Does this affect what we show you?

No. Opportunities are ranked by payout, deadline, and your eligibility, not by what pays us most. Two banks offering the same bonus rank identically — having an affiliate relationship with one doesn’t bump it up the list.

We add and remove sources based on the quality of the opportunities they surface, not the commission rate. Several sources we follow today have no affiliate program at all (the SEC press release feed, USA.gov, etc.) — we keep them because they cover real claimable money even though we can’t monetize them.

How the link rewriting works

When you click an Apply button on an affiliate link, we rewrite the publisher’s referral code with our own before redirecting you to the destination merchant. This means commission flows to Claimful instead of the original publisher. The destination URL is the same merchant; only the tracking code changes. Your browsing experience and the bonus you receive are unaffected.

Opting out of rewriting

If you’d prefer your clicks not be rewritten — for example, if you want to support the original publisher of a piece of content — turn on “Disable affiliate rewrite”in your account settings. Click-tracking still happens (we count clicks for our own dashboards) but the URL we redirect you to will be the publisher’s original link, not our rewritten version.

FTC compliance

This disclosure exists because the U.S. Federal Trade Commission requires honest disclosure of material relationships between content publishers and the merchants they recommend. If you have questions about this disclosure or how we handle commissions, contact contact@claimful.app.
