Affiliate Disclosure

Parent Penny is free to read because we earn revenue in a few clearly labeled ways. Here is exactly how that works.

Last updated September 2026

Affiliate links

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and open an account, sign up, or buy a product, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate links are identified where they appear, and comparison tables that include partner offers carry a visible disclosure.

Display advertising

We show display advertising in reserved areas of the page. Ads are chosen by advertising networks, not by our editorial team, and their presence is never an endorsement.

Sponsored content

Occasionally a company pays for a post or placement. Anything sponsored is labeled as sponsored at the top of the page. We retain final say over accuracy and will not publish claims we cannot support.

How this affects our recommendations

  • Commissions never determine what we recommend or how we rank options.
  • We routinely mention products and providers we earn nothing from.
  • We name the downsides of any option we cover, partner or not.

Your costs

Using an affiliate link never raises the price you pay. If a partner offer is worse than a non-partner alternative for most families, we say so.
