Retirees in USA is reader-supported. This page explains how our site generates revenue, how to identify affiliate links, and how our editorial decisions remain independent from our business relationships.

How This Site Makes Money

1. Affiliate Links

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. Our affiliate relationships include:

• Amazon Associates — Retirees in USA is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.
• Other affiliate programs — We participate in various other affiliate programs and may earn a commission through purchases made through our links. These are disclosed in individual articles where applicable.

2. Display Advertising

We may display third-party advertisements on this site. These ads may be served by Google AdSense or other advertising networks. Advertisers pay to display their ads based on your browsing history and the content of the page you are reading. Ad placement does not influence which topics we cover or how we evaluate products.

How to Identify Affiliate Links

Affiliate links typically point to retailers such as Amazon.com or other online stores. Articles that contain significant affiliate link content will include a disclosure notice near the top:

“This article contains affiliate links. If you make a purchase through these links, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you.”

Our Editorial Firewall

Our editorial recommendations are independent of our affiliate and advertising relationships:

• We do not accept payment for positive product reviews or article placement
• Advertisers and affiliate partners have no influence over which articles we write, what topics we cover, or what conclusions we reach
• We will not recommend a product we believe is poor quality simply because it pays a higher commission
• Our goal is to serve readers first — revenue follows from providing genuine value

FTC Compliance

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), Retirees in USA discloses material connections between this site and companies whose products or services are mentioned. This means:

• We disclose affiliate relationships on pages and in articles where affiliate links appear
• We disclose any free products received for review purposes
• We disclose any paid relationships that could influence our content
