Affiliate Disclosure
Welcome to Funding Hall’s Affiliate Disclosure
At Funding Hall (fundinghall.com), transparency and trust are at the core of everything we do. As a platform designed to empower entrepreneurs, small businesses, and startups—especially those that are minority- and women-owned—our mission is to offer honest, valuable, and actionable financial information. To support this mission, we may engage in affiliate partnerships with various third-party companies. These partnerships are part of how we sustain our operations, enhance the tools we offer, and continue to provide free, expert-level financial resources to our community.
This Affiliate Disclosure explains how our affiliate relationships work, what they mean for you as a user, and how we maintain integrity in all our content and recommendations.
1. What Is an Affiliate Relationship?
An affiliate relationship is a business arrangement in which Funding Hall receives a commission or other form of compensation when users click on certain links and make a purchase, sign up for a service, or complete a specific action with a third-party provider.
Examples of Affiliate Actions:
- Clicking a link to a loan provider and applying for financing.
- Signing up for a business credit card through our recommendation.
- Purchasing a financial tool, software, or educational product via our website.
These links are often embedded in product reviews, comparison pages, blog posts, or resource guides.
2. Why We Use Affiliate Links
Running a high-quality website with free tools, expert insights, editorial content, and support services requires funding. Instead of charging our users for access, we generate revenue through select affiliate partnerships.
This allows us to:
- Keep Funding Hall free for everyone.
- Provide unbiased comparisons and expert financial content.
- Support underserved communities like minority-owned and women-owned businesses.
- Improve the user experience by reinvesting in site technology, research, and user support.
Our affiliate model is designed to align our success with yours—when you benefit from a financial product or service we recommend, we may earn a commission.
3. How Affiliate Links Affect You
No Additional Cost
When you click on an affiliate link, it does not cost you anything extra. In fact, in many cases, you may receive a special discount, offer, or exclusive bonus through our affiliate relationships.
No Impact on Objectivity
We maintain a strict separation between editorial and affiliate operations. Our editorial content is written by finance experts and reviewed for accuracy and relevance. Any affiliate link you see is clearly marked or placed where it adds value to your experience.
Enhanced Trust
By being transparent about affiliate relationships, we aim to empower you to make informed financial decisions. We disclose when we are compensated and only partner with companies we believe are aligned with your success.
4. How We Choose Affiliate Partners
Funding Hall does not accept every affiliate opportunity. We are highly selective about who we work with to protect your best interests.
Selection Criteria:
- Reputation: We only partner with companies that have a proven track record of ethical conduct and excellent customer service.
- Relevance: Products and services must be directly beneficial to small businesses, startups, or entrepreneurs.
- Value: Affiliate offerings must deliver measurable value—be it in cost savings, efficiency, or business growth.
- Accessibility: We prioritize partners that serve diverse business communities, especially those historically underserved by traditional finance.
Examples of potential affiliate partners:
- Business lenders and financing platforms
- Business credit card issuers
- Accounting or financial software companies
- Legal and compliance service providers
- Educational platforms or online training providers
5. Types of Affiliate Content You’ll Find
At Funding Hall, we aim to make affiliate content informative, educational, and practical. Here’s how and where you may encounter affiliate links:
Comparison Pages
We publish side-by-side reviews of loan providers, credit card issuers, and business services. These pages may include affiliate links to help you directly apply for or purchase the product discussed.
Product or Service Reviews
When we write about a business tool or financing product, we may include links to apply or sign up. If these are affiliate links, they help us earn a small commission at no cost to you.
How-To Guides
In our educational articles—like “How to Build Business Credit” or “Top 10 Equipment Financing Options”—we may reference tools or partners that support your journey. These may include affiliate links where relevant.
Tools and Calculators
Our proprietary financial tools (such as loan calculators or credit score builders) may integrate affiliate links to vetted partners that offer next-step solutions.
6. Our Promise: Editorial Independence
Even though we may receive compensation, Funding Hall maintains editorial independence at all times. Here’s how we ensure that our recommendations are always trustworthy:
- Our writers and researchers do not receive direct compensation from affiliate partners.
- Product placement is based on merit, not on payment.
- All affiliate offers are reviewed against editorial standards for accuracy, fairness, and usefulness.
We disclose affiliate relationships on pages where they are active. You will always know when a link may lead to a commission.
7. Legal Disclosures and FTC Compliance
Funding Hall abides by all applicable Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines regarding endorsements and affiliate marketing.
According to the FTC’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising, we are required to disclose any financial relationships we have with a company or product we mention, recommend, or review.
Our Responsibilities:
- Disclose affiliate relationships clearly and conspicuously.
- Ensure that content is honest, truthful, and substantiated.
- Provide disclaimers where necessary to clarify intent and expectations.
If you ever feel a disclosure is missing or unclear, please contact us directly—we will promptly review and update it.
8. Transparency in Sponsored Content
While most content on Funding Hall is editorial in nature, we occasionally publish sponsored posts or partner features. These will always be:
- Clearly labeled as “Sponsored” or “Partner Content”
- Disclosed as being paid collaborations or guest content
- Reviewed to ensure they offer real value to our readers
Sponsored content does not influence our editorial rankings or recommendations unless otherwise stated.
9. Your Role and Responsibility as a User
Our goal is to equip you with the best financial information, but decisions regarding your business funding or services should always be made with full awareness and consideration.
We recommend:
- Reading third-party terms and conditions before signing up.
- Comparing multiple options before committing.
- Consulting a financial advisor if you’re unsure about any product.
By using our affiliate links, you support Funding Hall’s mission to empower small businesses—especially those from underserved communities—without spending a dime extra.
10. Affiliate Link Examples
To help you better understand what an affiliate link looks like and how it functions, here are hypothetical examples:
Example 1:
“Looking for a flexible business credit line? We recommend BlueSky Lending, a trusted provider that caters to startups and women-owned businesses.”
Example 2:
“Use our partner link to sign up for QuickBooks and receive 30% off your first 6 months.”
Each of these links could generate a commission for Funding Hall if you take action—but the cost or terms on your end are the same or better than going directly.
