Affiliate Disclosure

How We Make Money

SmartBankPick is a free resource. We earn money through affiliate commissions when you open an account through our links. This means:

  • When you click a link to Wise, Revolut, N26, or another financial product on our site and sign up, we may receive a commission from that company.
  • This costs you nothing extra. You pay the same fees whether you sign up through our link or directly.
  • In many cases, our referral links give you a better deal than signing up directly (welcome bonuses, free transfers, etc.).

How This Affects Our Recommendations

It doesn't. Our editorial process is separate from our business relationships. Here's our commitment:

  1. We only recommend products we genuinely use or would use. If a product pays high commissions but is bad for freelancers, we won't recommend it.
  2. Our rankings are based on real testing. We evaluate fees, features, user experience, and reliability — not commission rates.
  3. We clearly label affiliate links. Every button or link that earns us a commission is marked.
  4. We include products that don't pay us. If a great bank doesn't have an affiliate program, we still include it in our comparisons.

Our Affiliate Partners

We currently earn commissions from the following partners:

  • Wise — via Impact affiliate network
  • Revolut — via Impact affiliate network
  • N26 — direct affiliate program

This list is updated as we add or remove partnerships.
