Affiliate Disclosure

Introduction

Hey there, fellow traveler! We want to be completely upfront with you: solointravel may earn commissions from some of the links you click on our website. Don’t worry—using these links won’t cost you anything extra. In fact, sometimes you might even score special discounts through our partnerships!

How It Works

When you visit solointravel.com and click on certain links to products or services, you’re actually using what’s called an “affiliate link.” This means:

  • If you purchase something after clicking one of these links, we may receive a small commission from the company
  • We might receive free or discounted travel products or experiences to review
  • Some travel partners provide us with special discount codes that benefit both you and us

These partnerships help keep our travel content flowing without charging you for access. It’s how we can continue sharing travel tips, destination guides, and adventure stories while keeping the lights on.

Where It Applies

This disclosure applies to all content across solointravel.com where affiliate links appear. This includes:

  • Destination guides
  • Travel gear reviews
  • Hotel and accommodation recommendations
  • Tour and experience suggestions
  • Travel resource pages
  • Blog posts containing product recommendations

We believe in full transparency, so we make sure to identify affiliate partnerships throughout our site.

Link-Level Disclosures

To help you easily identify affiliate links, we use clear labels like these:

  • “(paid link)” immediately before or after the link
  • “#ad” near promotional content
  • “This post contains affiliate links” at the beginning of applicable articles
  • Product boxes labeled with “Affiliate Partnership”

These identifiers help you make informed decisions about the content you’re engaging with.

Program-Specific Wording

As required by our affiliate partners, we include the following disclosures:

  • As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
  • Solo In Travel is a participant in the Booking.com Partner Program.
  • We are members of the Expedia Partner Solutions affiliate program.
  • [Additional program-specific language will be added as partnerships evolve]

Our Promise to You

We value your trust above all else. That’s why we promise:

  • We only recommend products and services we genuinely believe in
  • Our opinions and reviews remain honest, regardless of affiliate relationships
  • We prioritize your travel experience over earning commissions
  • We research thoroughly to recommend options that offer real value
