Affiliate Disclosure — Australia

This page explains how PredictorHQ earns revenue and how we keep our editorial judgement independent of it. It is written to comply with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255).

Material connection

PredictorHQ contains affiliate links. When you click certain links to a prediction market platform and then open an account or take a qualifying action, we may earn a commission or referral fee, at no additional cost to you. This is a material connection under FTC 16 CFR Part 255, and we disclose it here and at the top of every page that contains affiliate links.

How we are compensated

We are compensated through a mix of affiliate networks and direct partner programs. The networks and programs we participate in (or apply to) include Impact and Awin, alongside direct referral and affiliate arrangements with individual platforms such as Kalshi, Polymarket, Robinhood, and others listed in our reviews. Not every platform we cover has an affiliate program, and the presence or absence of one never affects whether or how we cover a platform.

Editorial independence

Our scores and rankings are determined by our published scoring methodology — not by commission rates. We finalize scores before applying to any affiliate program. A platform that pays us nothing can outrank a platform that pays us well, and several do. We never accept payment for a positive review, a higher ranking, or removal of criticism.

How we choose what to feature

Coverage decisions are based on relevance to our investor audience and regulatory standing, not commercial relationships. Affiliate links are added after editorial assessment is complete. Where our analysis is critical of a platform, that criticism stays in place whether or not we have a commercial relationship with it.
