Every placement says Sponsor
Paid placements are clearly labeled. They are never disguised as a recommendation, result, or editorial choice.
The funding line
Sponsors fund the site.
They do not fund the answer.
FreeTier.fail has no accounts, paywall, or visitor payments. Sponsorship keeps the calculator free, with a hard boundary between paid placement and calculated results.
Non-negotiable rules
Sponsors never touch the numbers
Sponsors cannot change calculator inputs, prices, totals, comparisons, free-tier limits, or which limit appears first.
Money cannot buy a ranking
Cost comparisons use the same workload and sort by calculated price. Sponsorship cannot move a product up the list.
Sponsor configuration lives separately from calculator logic and cannot read calculator inputs or results. Paid outbound links include a sponsored disclosure.
