Every programme, named.
Ansa-Phone earns money in one way: a small affiliate commission when a reader follows a marked buy link on a recommendations page. The commission rate does not change the order phones or SIMs appear in. Every link uses the standard rel="sponsored noopener" attribute so search engines can see it clearly.
Where you will not see affiliate links
These three pages are the trust layer of the site. Mixing them with commerce would undermine the work they are doing.
The programmes Ansa-Phone uses
Amazon Associates, on every Amazon UK buy button. The Awin network, on the Back Market UK link for the refurbished iPhone SE and on the SIM links for ParentShield, Smarty and Lebara. And the partner programmes run by Light (for the Light Phone III) and HMD (for the Barbie Phone). Three links stay plain and direct with no commission: Punkt (the MP02), Pinwheel UK (the Pinwheel Plus) and giffgaff.
The Amazon Associates programme pays around 3 per cent on UK electronics. A typical Nokia 3210 sale earns Ansa-Phone roughly £2. The commission does not change the price you pay, and it is not the basis for which phones are ranked. The order on /best-simple-phones is editorial.
The required wording, stated plainly: as an Amazon Associate, Ansa-Phone earns from qualifying purchases.
The SIM programmes pay a one-off bounty per signup rather than a percentage, which is why we say so here rather than imply every link works the same way. Whatever the programme, the price you pay is the retailer's ordinary price, and the ranking on every page stays editorial.
What you will not see
No paid placements, no sponsored content, no banner ads, no third-party advertising scripts, no email list rentals. Ansa-Phone does not take payment from manufacturers to write a review.
How Ansa-Phone writes, checks and corrects everything else is set out on /editorial-standards.
If you would rather not use the link
Then please don't. The product name on each page is enough to find the phone elsewhere. The price you pay is identical either way. The only thing that changes is whether Ansa-Phone earns roughly £2 on the sale.
How strict are the disclosure rules
Strict. The Advertising Standards Authority, the Competition and Markets Authority, and HMRC all care about this. So does Ansa-Phone. If you ever see a marked buy link on a page without the disclosure bar at the top, that is a bug; please email hello@ansa-phone.co.uk.
