Balumy runs on affiliate income, and per FTC guidance on advertising disclosures, here’s exactly what that means.

The Short Version

Some links on balumy.com/ — across VPN, gaming, AI, and software content — are affiliate links. Click through, buy something or sign up, and the company may pay us a commission. Doesn't cost you anything extra.

Networks & Partners

We work with a mix of affiliate networks and direct partnerships across all four categories we cover. Specific partners are usually named within the relevant article.

Does Money Change What We Write?

No. Coverage decisions and ratings come from our editorial process — see the Editorial Policy — regardless of commission structure. A product can earn us a commission and still get a critical review.

Ranking Pages

“Best of” and comparison pages mix affiliate and non-affiliate products based on editorial merit. Anything paid for beyond a standard commission gets labeled “sponsored” — see our Advertising & Sponsorship Policy.

Your Call

Use our links or go direct — totally your choice. Using ours just helps keep the site funded.
