Our Ranking Methodology
Transparency matters. Here is exactly how we evaluate and rank adult affiliate programs in our comparisons.

We do have an affiliate relationship with ourdream.ai, which we believe in and promote. However, our rankings are based on the same criteria applied to all programs. We will not rank a program highly just because we earn from it.
