RealWhile (https://www.realwhile.com) believes in being fully transparent with our readers. This Affiliate Disclosure explains how we earn money and how that affects – and does not affect – the content we publish. This disclosure is made in line with the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI) guidelines on influencer and online advertising, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Endorsement Guides, and the policies of our affiliate partners.
1. What Are Affiliate Links?
An affiliate link is a special tracking link to a product, service or app. When you click an affiliate link on RealWhile and make a purchase, sign up or complete a qualifying action on the partner’s website, we may receive a small commission or referral fee from that partner.
This comes at no extra cost to you. The price you pay is the same whether you use our link or go to the website directly. In some cases, our links may even give you access to special discounts or referral rewards.
2. Our Affiliate Partners
RealWhile participates in affiliate and referral programs that may include:
- Flipkart Affiliate Program – for product recommendations in our shopping, home & kitchen and accessories articles.
- Other e-commerce affiliate programs and networks that link to Indian and international online stores.
- App and fintech referral programs – some app guides may contain referral links; if you sign up through them, we (and sometimes you) may receive a referral reward.
- AI tool and software affiliate programs – some AI tool reviews and software guides may contain affiliate links to paid plans.
Our partners may change over time. Any link on our website to a product, store, app or service may be an affiliate link.
3. Where You Will Find Affiliate Links
- Product roundups, “best of” lists and buying guides.
- Individual product reviews and comparisons.
- AI tool reviews and tutorials.
- App and software guides.
- Deal, offer and coupon posts.
Government service and scheme articles do not contain affiliate links to government services. Links to official government portals are provided purely for your convenience, and we earn nothing from them.
4. Our Editorial Independence
Affiliate commissions help us keep RealWhile free for everyone and cover costs such as hosting, research and writing. However:
- Commissions never influence our ratings, rankings or opinions.
- We recommend products and services because we believe they are useful, not because of the commission rate.
- We also mention products and alternatives that do not have affiliate links when they are the better choice.
- Brands cannot pay for positive reviews.

5. Advertising (Google AdSense)
In addition to affiliate links, RealWhile displays advertisements served by Google AdSense and possibly other ad networks. We earn revenue when ads are displayed or clicked. We do not control which specific ads are shown, and the display of an ad does not mean we endorse the advertiser. Please never click ads just to support us – invalid clicks violate advertiser policies.
6. Sponsored Content
If we ever publish content that has been paid for by a brand, it will be clearly labelled as “Sponsored”, “Paid Partnership” or “Advertisement” at the top of the article.
7. Prices and Product Information
Prices, discounts, availability and product details shown on RealWhile are accurate at the time of writing but can change at any time. The price and terms displayed on the seller’s website at the time of purchase apply. RealWhile is not the seller of any product and is not responsible for orders, delivery, returns, refunds or warranties – please contact the seller or manufacturer for these.
8. Cookies Used for Affiliate Tracking
Affiliate partners use cookies to track referrals. For more information, read our Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy.
