We built PointFarm to help you keep more of what you earn — so being straight with you about how we make money matters. In short: some of the offers in PointFarm are affiliate offers, which means we may earn a commission when you use them. This page explains exactly how that works and the commitments we make to keep it fair.
How affiliate links work
Some offers and vouchers in PointFarm contain special tracking links provided through affiliate networks such as Partnerize. If you tap one of those offers and then make a purchase with the partner, PointFarm may receive a small commission from that partner as a thank-you for the referral.
What this means for you
- You never pay more. Commissions are paid by the partner out of their margin — your price is exactly the same as if you'd gone direct.
- We don't play favourites. Affiliate offers aren't ranked above non-affiliate ones because they earn us money. Offers are shown on their merit alongside non-affiliate content.
- You're always in control. Using an affiliate offer is entirely optional. You can ignore it and still use everything else in PointFarm.
Which partners we work with
We work with brands through affiliate networks — Partnerize is our main one at launch — and the list of partners will grow over time as we add curated offers we think are genuinely worth your while. Affiliate offers are labelled as such within the app so you can always tell what's what.
Our fuel data stays independent
This is important: the fuel prices in PointFarm come from official Australian government data feeds and are never influenced by commercial relationships. No fuel retailer pays to appear cheaper, higher, or closer than they are. Affiliate commissions only ever relate to third-party offers and vouchers — not to the fuel prices or station rankings you rely on.
Why we disclose this
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) expects businesses to clearly disclose commercial and affiliate relationships so you can make informed choices. We agree with that — transparency is one of our core values, not a box-ticking exercise. If we ever get paid to feature something, you'll know.
