Methodology

How NAKAMOTO reviews affiliate products.

Commercial links must be useful, disclosed, and placed inside education-first pages. A referral reward never turns a product into a recommendation.

Review Standard

Every product is judged by reader fit, risk, cost, records, and official terms.

Fit

Who is it for?

We identify the user goal: spending, investing, trading, business payments, credit, custody, or research.

Risk

What can go wrong?

We name capital risk, credit risk, trading risk, custody risk, fees, chargebacks, frozen funds, and behavior risk.

Cost

What must be checked?

We avoid stale fee promises and point readers to official terms, pricing pages, documents, and account rules.

Records

Can the reader keep proof?

We look for statements, exports, invoices, contract notes, payout records, tax documents, and support trails.

Editorial Boundary

Affiliate revenue must not weaken the page.

Visible disclosure

Sponsored links are labeled near the link and connected to the affiliate disclosure page.

No fake testing

If NAKAMOTO has not personally tested a product, the page must not imply hands-on results.

No guarantees

No page can promise profit, approval, payout, investment return, or business success.

Official terms

Readers should verify fees, eligibility, rewards, and rules with the merchant before applying.

Scoring

The internal product score uses five questions.

1

Does it solve a real reader job?

The product must fit a clear page topic, not just offer a commission.

2

Are risks clear before the link?

The risk note must appear before or near the commercial route.

3

Are costs and terms verifiable?

The page should explain what to check and avoid unsupported fee claims.

4

Is the reader better informed?

The page must still be useful if the reader never clicks the referral link.

5

Is the route measurable?

Affiliate links should trigger `affiliate_link_click` for analytics review.

Commercial note

NAKAMOTO may earn from affiliate links, but content remains educational only. Readers should verify official terms and seek qualified advice where appropriate.
