Affiliate Disclosure


Overview

Transparency is one of the core values of Trade by KAYAHA. This Affiliate Disclosure page exists to be fully open and honest with our readers about how this website earns revenue and how that may relate to the content we publish.

At Trade by KAYAHA, some of the content on our website contains affiliate links. This means that when you click on certain links and complete a qualifying action — such as opening a trading account or signing up for a platform — we may receive a financial commission from the company you joined. This commission is paid to us by the third-party company and comes at no additional cost to you whatsoever.

We want every visitor to Trade by KAYAHA to feel confident that our editorial content is honest, independently researched, and genuinely aimed at helping you make better-informed decisions about trading and investing. This page explains exactly how our affiliate relationships work, which companies we may partner with, and how we ensure those relationships do not compromise the quality or integrity of our content.

Please read this disclosure carefully. By continuing to use our website, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the terms described on this page.


What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is a common and widely accepted practice used by educational and review websites across the finance, technology, and retail industries. It works as follows:

A website owner — in this case, Trade by KAYAHA — partners with a company or service provider. The website publishes content that references or reviews that company’s products or services. When a reader clicks on a specially tracked affiliate link and completes a qualifying action, the website owner receives a commission payment from the company.

This model allows websites like Trade by KAYAHA to produce free, high-quality educational content for readers without charging subscription fees or paywalls. Affiliate commissions help support the research, writing, and operational costs involved in running this platform.

Affiliate marketing is fully legal and widely practised. In Australia, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) and other regulatory bodies require that affiliate relationships be clearly disclosed to consumers. This page fulfils that requirement.


How Affiliate Links Work on Trade by KAYAHA

When an affiliate link is present on our website, it typically appears within:

  • Broker reviews and platform comparisons
  • “Best of” lists, such as Best Trading Platforms Australia or Best Forex Brokers Australia
  • Educational guides that reference specific platforms or tools
  • Call-to-action buttons such as “Visit Broker,” “Open Account,” or “Learn More”

These links contain a unique tracking code that identifies Trade by KAYAHA as the referring source. If you click the link and open an account or complete another qualifying action within a specified timeframe, the broker or platform will attribute that referral to us and pay a commission accordingly.

You will never pay more by using our affiliate links. The price you pay for any product, service, or account with a third-party company is exactly the same whether you arrive through our link or navigate to their website directly.


Our Affiliate Partners

Trade by KAYAHA may currently maintain affiliate or referral relationships with a number of financial platforms, brokers, and service providers. These may include, but are not limited to:

IC Markets

IC Markets is an ASIC-regulated online trading broker known for its competitive spreads and institutional-grade execution. We may earn a commission when readers sign up for an account with IC Markets through our referral links. Our coverage of IC Markets reflects our honest editorial assessment.

eToro

eToro is an internationally recognised multi-asset trading platform available to Australian users. We may earn a commission when readers register for an eToro account through links on our website. eToro is regulated by ASIC in Australia.

Other Financial Platforms and Services

From time to time, Trade by KAYAHA may establish affiliate relationships with additional brokers, trading platforms, financial tools, or educational services. Where such relationships exist and are relevant to our content, they will be covered by the terms of this disclosure.

We will always endeavour to keep this list current. However, the absence of a specific company name on this page does not necessarily mean that an affiliate relationship does not exist. When in doubt, please assume that links to third-party financial platforms on our website may be affiliate links.


Our Commitment to Editorial Independence

We understand that affiliate relationships can raise legitimate questions about editorial objectivity. We want to address this directly and honestly.

Our affiliate partnerships do not determine our editorial conclusions. A broker or platform is not reviewed favourably simply because we have an affiliate arrangement with them. Equally, platforms we do not partner with are not reviewed negatively for that reason.

Our commitment to readers includes the following editorial standards:

Honest Reviews

Every broker review and platform comparison published on Trade by KAYAHA is based on independent research, publicly available data, regulatory information, and our genuine assessment of the product. We highlight both strengths and weaknesses in every review.

No Pay-to-Play Rankings

Brokers and platforms cannot pay to improve their position in our comparison tables or rankings. Our lists are ordered based on editorial criteria such as regulatory status, fees, platform features, and suitability for different types of traders.

Balanced Comparisons

When we compare multiple platforms, our goal is to present an accurate and balanced view so that readers can make their own informed decisions based on their individual needs and trading style.

Clear Labelling

Where content is produced in partnership with or sponsored by a third party, this will be clearly labelled on the relevant page in addition to being covered by this general disclosure.


Advertising and Sponsored Content

In addition to affiliate links, Trade by KAYAHA may also generate revenue through display advertising and sponsored content arrangements. Sponsored content will always be clearly identified as such. Display advertising is served by third-party advertising networks and does not represent a personal endorsement of any advertised product or service.


Your Responsibility as a Reader

While we strive to provide accurate, balanced, and up-to-date content, the information on Trade by KAYAHA is provided for educational purposes only and does not constitute financial advice. Before opening any trading account or making any investment decision, you should:

  • Conduct your own independent research
  • Verify the regulatory status of any broker with ASIC or the relevant authority in your jurisdiction
  • Consider your personal financial circumstances and risk tolerance
  • Seek advice from a qualified and licensed financial adviser where appropriate

Broker conditions, fees, and product availability change frequently. We recommend visiting the broker’s official website directly to confirm current details before making any decision.


Updates to This Disclosure

We may update this Affiliate Disclosure from time to time as our partnerships, content, and business practices evolve. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision.

We encourage you to review this page periodically. Your continued use of Trade by KAYAHA following any updates constitutes your acceptance of the revised disclosure.
