Our pledge

Every number on RateHerald comes with its source. And we never use the tricks that make comparison sites easy to distrust.

RateHerald never

1. let payment set a rank, a "best" label, a shortlist or a match. The code that ranks can't see commission data.
2. call pay-influenced results objective, or present part of the market as all of it.
3. show countdown timers, false scarcity or invented activity.
4. claim "pre-approved" or show approval odds we can't back up.
5. headline an "up to" figure without its conditions beside it.
6. give fees, penalty APRs, the rate after an intro period, intro end dates or "as of" dates less size, contrast or closeness than the headline number.
7. fake, buy, filter or selectively ask for reviews.
8. put a tool behind an email, phone number or Social Security number.
9. shame you for saying no, preselect your consent, or make opting out harder than opting in.
10. share your information without your express consent.

RateHerald always

• sorts by a measure of value to you that it names on the page;
• shows where every figure comes from, and when we last checked it;
• corrects mistakes in public, on our corrections page.

How we make money

Today, we don't. How that could change, and what never will.
