At Future Publishing Limited we rely on advertising to keep bringing you useful comparison tools and content you love to read.

Many of the products and services found on Getprice use affiliate links, for which we can receive compensation from a retailer if you click a link or make purchases through them. 

Most of the articles on Getprice is created exclusively by our editorial team, but we occasionally also work with external partners to create stories we hope our readers will find interesting and useful. 

In some cases the partner provides content for us, but in others they support us in producing the piece and we maintain editorial independence. 

This additional content is labelled so you can see who has funded it and how it was created. With that in mind, we've set up this page with the information you need to understand what those labels mean and how the content you're reading was funded. 

We have three main types of funded content:

Supported Editorial

Articles that are labelled as being written 'in association with' are independent editorial articles that have been created by writers employed or contracted by Future Publishing, but have been funded through the support of a commercial partner. 

When planning supported content, a senior editor will agree the topic and the headline of the article with the funding partner, but is not obliged to take further direction from the partner. 

The article is written by a Future Publishing writer under the direction of a senior editor, and posted to Getprice. It is not sent to the funding partner for approval. 

This content abides by the Statement of Principles from the Australian Press Council.

Articles that are labelled 'Advertisement Feature' are paid for and controlled by a commercial partner. They may be produced by the client or by staff employed by Getprice (or Future Publishing). 

This is commercial content and is subject to the advertising codes as laid down by Australia's Ad Standards.

Preferred Partner

A label saying 'Preferred Partner' means a commercial partner is offering a preferential affiliate rate to Future Publishing in exchange for greater prominence within an article, such as by highlighting a particular deal for a product that our staff recommend. 

Getprice will only write content featuring 'Preferred Partners' when we feel it's aligned with our mission to create the best content for our audience. The text is written by Getprice staff, or under the direction of a senior editor, and posted to Getprice. It is not sent to the funding partner for approval.
