What never changes
Payment never changes our comparison tables, reviewed content, “best for” text, the order of tools, the guided finder’s ranking or our structured data. Every paid spot sits in its own box labelled “Sponsored”, and its links are marked as sponsored. How we make money.

Questions
- Does paying improve my ranking or reviews?
- No. Payment never changes comparison tables, reviewed content, “best for” text, the order of tools, the guided finder or the information we give search engines. Paid spots appear only in a separate box labelled “Sponsored”.
- How many sponsors can appear in a category?
- At most 3 per category page, shown in a fair rotating order. If a category is full you can join its waitlist from your vendor area.
- What happens if I cancel an upgrade?
- Your upgrade runs to the end of the period you paid for. After that the sponsored spots and extra profile details switch off. Online billing is not open yet; final subscription conditions will be shown before purchase.
- Can I switch plans?
- Yes. You can move between Featured and Partner; the payment provider works out any part-period difference.
- Can I pay by invoice?
- Partner vendors can use “Talk to us” in the vendor area and we can set up invoiced billing.
- How do demo leads work?
- When a buyer asks for a demo of your product and agrees to sharing, we pass their request to you. Buyers who don’t agree are never shared.
