How We Make Money

Because trust starts with showing our receipts.

Here’s how we earn revenue, what that means for you, and where we draw the line.

Our Business Model

We make money by ensuring the communities you join are worthwile. 

That's why our business model is built around only getting paid when you stay in communities for at least 30+ days.

    Affiliated Communities
    We align our incentives with you. We only get paid when you find enough value in a community to stick around.

    Community Trust Audits
    Given our extensive experience, we have services where we help community builders market themselves and their content.

    Affiliated Products
    A few products have stood out above the rest to support community based entrepreneurs. We will recommend the best ones and can earn a commission.

    ProveWorth.com Badges
    When the community builders find value in our service, they can subscribe to receive monthly trust audits and their reviews will be updated regularly.

How Affiliate Links Work 💸

Some of the communities and products we review offer affiliate programs. That means:

  • If you click one of our affiliate links and decide to join the community,
     
  • The creator gets paid,
     
  • And we may receive a commission, at no extra cost to you.

These commissions help keep ProveWorth running. They also incentivize us to only give our recommendation to strong communities, because we only get paid when you stay in the community.

Here's the line we never cross:

No community ever gets a better review because we’re an affiliate.

Many of the communities we recommend don’t offer affiliate commissions at all. If we recommend them, it’s because they earned it.

How We Stay Independent 🔍

Here's our guidelines to keep our reviews fair, trustworthy, and useful.

    Quality First, Always
    Reviews are published whether or not an affiliate program exists. When we make a recommendation, it's because of quality.

    Give Clear Disclosures
    Every affiliate link is clearly marked. No hidden agendas, no fine print.

    No Pay for Placement
    Communities cannot pay us to appear higher, get “featured,” or receive positive reviews. Ever.

    No Paid Scores, Ever
    Our review scores are based on substance, not commissions. Period.
