Every sponsored post carries the “Ad” label and a “Sponsored by” line with the brand's name, on its card and at the top of the post.
At the end of the post we say it again: “Sponsored post · RALF is paid to show this offer”.
How sponsored posts work
Some posts in Tips & Traps are paid for by brands. Here is how we label them and the rules every one of them follows.
How to spot them
The rules
Every sponsored post follows these rules:
- A brand or our team writes it. A person on our team reviews it before it goes live, and we only publish offers that help someone plan a trip.
- We publish at most four sponsored posts a month across the whole site.
- A brand can pay to show its post as the first card of Tips & Traps for 30 days. The card keeps the “Ad” label.
- Brands can't pay to change, rank or remove tips written by Local Friends and travelers.
- Links in a sponsored post open the brand's website.
- We don't accept casino, betting, CBD, adult content, dating, payday loans, trading signals or academic writing services.
Sponsored links in our own tips
Some tips written by the RALF team include one sentence with a paid link. Those tips show “Contains a sponsored link” above the title and the “Ad” label right after the sentence.
We never place paid links in tips written by Local Friends or travelers.
