Affiliate Disclosure

Our Affiliate Relationships

Aureum & Co, operated by NorwegianSpark SA (Org. no. 834 984 172), participates in affiliate marketing programmes. This means that when you click certain links on our website and subsequently make a purchase or sign up for a service, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

We hold paid relationships with 38 companies, concentrated in gold and precious metals, fine jewellery, luxury fashion, payments and travel. These partnerships are the primary means by which we fund our editorial operations. Where we write about a category we hold no partner in — auction houses and private banking among them — nothing on the page is paid, and we say so.

FTC Compliance (US Readers)

In accordance with the United States Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR Part 255 guidelines on endorsements and testimonials, Aureum & Co discloses all material connections with companies whose products or services we recommend, review, or link to.

All affiliate links on this website are clearly marked. Text links and calls to action are routed through our own /go/[slug] redirect; a small number of advertiser-supplied display banners link to the network directly, because their impression tracking only works that way. Both are marked as sponsored. Every article that contains affiliate links displays an affiliate disclosure notice at the top of the page.

Norwegian Law Compliance

As a Norwegian company, we comply with the Markedsføringsloven (the Norwegian Marketing Control Act) requirements regarding transparent commercial communication. We are committed to honest and transparent disclosure of all commercial relationships.

Our Editorial Independence

Our editorial decisions are not influenced by our affiliate relationships. We do not guarantee placement, positive reviews, or editorial coverage to affiliate partners. Companies are included in our directory and articles based on their quality, relevance, and value to our readers — not on the basis of commercial arrangements.

We may receive compensation regardless of whether we positively or negatively discuss a product or service. Our editorial team maintains independence from our commercial team.

Identifying Affiliate Links

Affiliate links on this website may be identified by:

• A disclosure notice at the top of articles containing affiliate links
• The use of /go/[slug] URL format in our redirect system
• Labels such as "Featured Partners" or "Affiliate" in our sidebar and directory
• The HTML attributes rel="nofollow sponsored" on all affiliate links

No Additional Cost to You

When you use our affiliate links, you pay the same price (or sometimes less, if we have negotiated a reader discount) as you would by going directly to the company's website. Our affiliate commission is paid by the partner company from their existing marketing budget, not added to your purchase price.
