In short
- We earn money in three ways: our own products, affiliate links and labelled sponsorships.
- Every pick shows a stamp that says how we know it.
- Sponsors never see or approve our text before it goes live.
How Becoming Miles makes money
- The Miles Store sells guides, presets and paper goods we make ourselves.
- Affiliate links: if you buy through some links, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
- Sponsorships: a brand pays or invites us. These are always labelled Sponsored.
What the stamps mean
- Personally usedWe bought it with our own money and use it on real trips.
- Personally visitedWe went, paid, and would send a friend.
- ResearchedWe have not used it yet. We say what we checked and why.
- SponsoredA brand paid or invited us. The notes are still ours.
Our rules for sponsors
- We label sponsored content on the page and in the video.
- Sponsors do not see or approve our text before it is published.
- We only work with things we would use or visit anyway.
How we mark links
Affiliate and sponsored links are marked on the page and use rel="sponsored", so search engines know what they are.
Prices and dates
Prices we show carry the date we last checked them. They may have changed since.
