Advertiser Disclosure

Last updated: June 2026 · Required by the FTC

Summary: ReliefGuardian.com earns money when you click on links to our partner companies or submit your information for a quote. This is how we fund our free tools and editorial content. Our recommendations and ratings are not for sale — they are based on our independent research.

How We Make Money

ReliefGuardian.com is an advertising-supported website. We receive compensation from debt relief companies when visitors click on links, submit contact forms, call phone numbers displayed on our site, or enroll in programs through our referrals. This compensation is typically a flat fee or a percentage of the program enrollment value.

How Compensation Affects Our Content

Compensation may influence which companies we feature prominently, how they appear on comparison pages, or the order in which they are listed. However, compensation does not influence our editorial ratings, star scores, written reviews, or our determination of which company is "best" for any given use case. Our ratings are based on independently assessed criteria and are updated regularly.

FTC Compliance

This disclosure is made in compliance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials in advertising (16 CFR Part 255). We disclose material connections between our site and advertised companies. Any testimonials or reviews reflect real experiences but results are not guaranteed and individual outcomes vary.

Companies Not Listed

The absence of a company from our site does not mean we consider it to be bad or untrustworthy. We review and list companies based on our research capacity, partner relationships, and relevance to our audience. We may add or remove companies over time.
