the money bit
How CampusCash makes money
Short version: some links pay us a commission, and the site may show ads. Neither one changes what we tell you. Here’s the longer version.
Affiliate links
A few links on CampusCash are affiliate links. Sign up or buy through one and that company might pay us a cut. Your price doesn’t change: it’s exactly what you’d pay going there yourself.
Behind the scenes, each one is tagged rel="sponsored" so search engines know it’s paid. Up front, any guide that has them starts with a “Heads up” note, so you know before you read a word.
Commissions don’t buy verdicts
Nobody can pay their way into a CampusCash recommendation. If something’s a waste of your time, the guide calls it a waste of your time, cut or no cut. Some of the best options for students, like campus jobs and Federal Work-Study, don’t pay anyone a commission, and we recommend them anyway.
Ads
There might be ads on CampusCash too. Advertisers don’t get to pick our topics, tweak a guide or touch a verdict.
Cookies
Ads and affiliate links can involve cookies. That part is covered on the Privacy page.
