Introduction
Hi there! We want to be completely transparent with you about how Gateway To Morocco operates. Some of the links on our website are affiliate links, which means we may earn a small commission when you click on them or make a purchase. This comes at absolutely no extra cost to you – the price you pay remains exactly the same.
We only recommend products, services, and experiences that we genuinely believe will be helpful for your travels to Morocco and beyond.
How It Works
Here’s the simple breakdown of how affiliate marketing works on gatewaytomorocco.com:
When you click on certain links on our website or make a purchase through them, Gateway To Morocco may receive compensation in various forms, including:
- Cash commissions (usually a small percentage of your purchase)
- Free products or services to review
- Discounts on future purchases
- Credit toward travel experiences
This compensation helps us keep our website running, create new content, and continue providing free travel advice and resources to fellow travelers like you.
Where It Applies
This affiliate disclosure applies to every page, blog post, guide, and piece of content on gatewaytomorocco.com that contains affiliate links. Whether you’re reading our latest Morocco travel guide, browsing our recommended gear lists, or checking out our hotel suggestions, some of those links may be affiliate links.
We don’t pick and choose where to disclose this – it’s a blanket policy across our entire website.
Link-Level Disclosures
In addition to this general disclosure page, we also mark individual affiliate links throughout our content to make it crystal clear when a link is an affiliate link.
You’ll see clear labels like:
- “(paid link)”
- “(affiliate link)”
- “#ad”
- “#affiliate”
- “(commission earned)”
These labels will appear immediately before or after the affiliate link, so you’ll always know exactly which links may earn us a commission.
Program-Specific Disclosures
We participate in various affiliate programs, and some require specific language. Here are the programs we’re currently part of:
Amazon Associates Program: As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Booking.com Affiliate Program: Gateway To Morocco is a participant in the Booking.com affiliate program.
Additional Programs: [Insert specific disclosure language for other affiliate programs as needed, such as:]
- GetYourGuide affiliate program
- Viator affiliate program
- Travel insurance affiliate programs
- Gear and equipment affiliate programs
Note: This list may be updated as we join new affiliate programs.
Our Promise to You
Even though we may earn commissions from some of the links on our website, here’s what you can count on:
Honest Recommendations: We only recommend products, services, and experiences we genuinely believe in. If we wouldn’t use it ourselves or recommend it to a close friend, we won’t recommend it to you.
No Inflated Prices: Affiliate links never increase the price you pay. In many cases, you may even get special discounts through our affiliate partnerships.
Balanced Reviews: Our reviews and recommendations are based on our honest experiences and research, not on which products pay the highest commissions.
Your Best Interests: Our goal is to help you have amazing travel experiences, not to maximize our affiliate earnings.
FTC Compliance
This disclosure is made in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.” We believe in being completely transparent about our affiliate relationships and any compensation we receive.
