Affiliate Disclaimer

Affiliate Disclosure

ExpatDe is an independently owned website. Some of the links on this website are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase or sign up for a service. This comes at no additional cost to you.

How We Choose What to Recommend

We only recommend products and services that we have personally used, thoroughly researched, or that meet our strict quality criteria. Our editorial content is created independently, and affiliate partnerships never influence our recommendations, rankings, or reviews.

Transparency Promise

When a post or page contains affiliate links, we clearly indicate this. We believe in full transparency with our readers. If we're compensated for mentioning a product, you'll know about it.

Our Commitment

  • Honest reviews - we include both pros and cons for every service we recommend
  • No pay-to-play - companies cannot pay for positive reviews or higher rankings
  • Reader-first approach - if we wouldn't recommend a service to a friend, we won't recommend it to you
  • Regular updates - we revisit our recommendations regularly to ensure they still meet our standards

Specific Programs

ExpatDe participates in affiliate programs with banks, insurance providers, investment platforms, tax software providers, and other services relevant to expats in Germany. Each program has its own terms and conditions.

Questions?

If you have questions about our affiliate relationships or want to know whether a specific recommendation is affiliated, please contact us. We're happy to be transparent.
