Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: July 27, 2026

VaultPilot is an independent financial publisher. We are committed to providing accurate, unbiased comparisons to help you make informed financial decisions.

How We Earn

VaultPilot earns revenue through affiliate commissions. When you click a link to a financial product on our site and subsequently open an account, apply for a card, or take another qualifying action, we may receive a commission from the provider. This comes at no extra cost to you.

You can think of it like a finder's fee — the provider pays us for sending a qualified customer their way. This is how we keep the site free and independent for all readers.

Our Editorial Independence

Affiliate relationships never influence our editorial content. We do not accept payment for positive reviews, placement in rankings, or specific mentions. Our rankings and recommendations are based on objective criteria:

  • Annual percentage yields (APYs) and interest rates
  • Account fees and minimum balance requirements
  • Features, accessibility, and customer experience
  • Terms and conditions — not commission size

We may earn more from some products than others. We do not let this affect which products we recommend or how we rank them. See our Editorial Policy for our full methodology.

Products We Cover

We currently cover and may earn from:

  • High-yield savings accounts
  • Bank account and brokerage bonuses
  • Certificate of deposit (CD) accounts
  • Money market accounts
  • Credit cards
  • Personal finance apps and budgeting tools
  • Credit monitoring and identity theft protection

How to Identify Affiliate Links

Articles that contain affiliate links are clearly marked at the top with a disclosure notice. When you see our disclosure, you'll know that any product links on that page may generate a commission for us.

Transparency Commitment

We believe in full transparency. If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships, editorial practices, or a specific recommendation, please contact us. We're happy to explain how we evaluate any product.
