Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency and Trust for Our Veteran Community
Effective Date: December 2024
Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Disclosure
VAMAX4U participates in affiliate marketing programs. When you click on certain links on our website and make purchases, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
This disclosure is made in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”
What Are Affiliate Links?
Affiliate links are special URLs that track when someone clicks through our website to make a purchase. When you buy products or services through these links, the company pays us a small commission. This helps us maintain our website and continue providing free resources to the veteran community.
Important: Using our affiliate links never increases the price you pay. In many cases, you may even get better deals through our partnerships.
Our Commitment to the Veteran Community
As veterans ourselves, we understand the importance of trust and integrity. Our primary mission is to help fellow veterans navigate the VA benefits system and maximize their earned compensation.
