Affiliate disclosure.

Jolly Monks is free to read. One way we keep it that way is through affiliate links. Here is exactly what that means, in plain language.

What an affiliate link is

Some of the outbound links on this site, in particular the shop and buy links to Amazon, are affiliate links. If you click one and go on to make a purchase, we may earn a small commission.

It costs you nothing

You never pay more for using our links. Any commission is paid by the retailer, not by you, and the price you see is the same price you would pay going there directly.

Which programs we use

We participate in the Amazon Associates program for books, glassware and accessories. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Other outbound links (to rating sites and some retailers) are plain, unpaid links.

Our recommendations stay honest

The beers, books, glasses and shops we feature are chosen on merit alone. A commission never buys a better write-up or a higher place on a list. If we would not recommend it to a friend, it does not go on the site.

Questions

If anything here is unclear, please get in touch. We would rather over-explain than leave you guessing.
