Affiliate Disclosure
How affiliate relationships work at CompareVoIPService
Some links on this site may earn us a commission when a reader takes action with a provider. That commercial relationship does not allow providers to buy rankings, alter scores, or remove negative constraints. This page explains what may generate revenue, what remains independent, and how disclosure stays visible across shortlist, review, and comparison journeys.
Quick disclosure summary
No paid placements.
No score changes for commission.
Disclosure and methodology links stay visible.
Three rules behind every commercial link
This page explains how affiliate relationships work on CompareVoIPService, what may generate revenue, and how editorial independence is protected across shortlist, review, and comparison pages.
No paid placements
Providers cannot pay to be featured, moved upward, or described positively on ranking, review, or comparison pages.
Affiliate neutrality
A commission may be earned on an eligible click or enquiry, but that commercial outcome does not alter methodology, weighting, or final judgement.
Intent-safe routing
Ranking pages shortlist. Review pages go deep on one provider. Comparison pages handle final trade-offs. Disclosure and methodology remain visible across all of them.

Where to go next
This page explains how affiliate relationships work. From here, you can move into the part of the site that best matches your stage, whether you are building a shortlist, reading a provider review, or comparing final options.
Best VoIP providers in the UK
Use the ranking pillar for shortlist-building. This is where ordering, best-fit notes, and methodology-led scoring belong.
VoIP provider reviews
Use reviews for strengths, constraints, support expectations, and fit scenarios for a single provider without broad ranking tables.
VoIP provider comparisons
Use comparison pages when the shortlist is already tight and the reader needs a final head-to-head decision between two options.
Our editorial standards
The disclosure works because it is tied to repeatable editorial behaviour, not a one-line legal notice.
Corrections and evidence
If a reader, reviewer, or provider spots an error, the correction path should be explicit: send the page URL, the statement to review, and the supporting evidence. Official provider documentation is the strongest source for factual fixes.
Why disclosure matters on a comparison site
Readers often assume lists and comparisons are commercial by default. A visible disclosure page, linked alongside methodology, reduces that ambiguity and strengthens trust before any click ever reaches a provider.
Frequently asked questions
Here are answers to some of the most common questions readers may have about affiliate links and how CompareVoIPService handles them.
Do you use affiliate links on CompareVoIPService?
Yes. Some links or enquiries may generate a commission when a reader takes action with a provider. That does not give providers control over scoring, ordering, or editorial wording.
Can a provider pay to improve its ranking or review outcome?
No. Providers cannot buy placement, better scores, or more favourable conclusions. Commercial relationships and editorial decisions are kept separate.
Does clicking an affiliate link cost the reader extra?
No. Readers do not pay CompareVoIPService for using the site. Any final pricing, contract terms, or discounts are set by the provider, not by us.
Are all providers on the site affiliate partners?
Not necessarily. A provider can be reviewed, compared, or included in a shortlist because it is relevant to UK buyers, not because it has a commercial arrangement.
How do I verify how rankings and reviews are produced?
Use the methodology page to review the framework, categories, update rules, and page-type boundaries. This disclosure page explains the commercial model; the methodology explains the editorial model.
Where should I go after reading this page?
Use the recommendation quiz for a fast shortlist, provider reviews for one-provider depth, and provider comparisons for final head-to-head trade-offs. Those journeys stay separate intentionally.
Move from trust into action — using the right page type
Now that the commercial model is clear, route readers into the journey they actually need: shortlist, review depth, comparison, or methodology cross-checking.
