KoreaKeys is free to read. To help cover the cost of running it, some guides include affiliate links. This page explains what that means for you.
What is an affiliate link?
An affiliate link is a tracked link to a company’s website. If you click one and then buy or book something, that company may pay KoreaKeys a small commission.
You don’t pay anything extra. The price is the same as going to the site directly. Sometimes partners offer a discount, and when they do, we’ll mention it.
Who we work with
Our affiliate links currently run through the Travelpayouts partner network. Partners we link to include travel services such as Klook, Airalo, and Trip.com. We only link to services that are relevant to the guide you’re reading.
How to spot them
- Every guide that contains affiliate links says so at the top of the page.
- Affiliate links are usually call-to-action links marked with 👉, for example “Book an AREX ticket on Klook.”
- Technically, these links carry a
rel="sponsored"tag, which tells search engines they are commercial links.
Our editorial rules
- Commissions don’t decide recommendations. We recommend what we think is the best fit for most travelers, even when it earns us nothing. If a free or official option is better, we say so.
- No paid reviews. Companies can’t pay to be featured or to change what we write.
- Official sources first. Prices, rules, and dates are checked against official sources, and each guide lists its sources and the date it was last checked.
- Prices change. Partner prices and offers can change after we publish. Always check the final price on the partner’s site before you pay.
Your bookings
When you book through an affiliate link, your purchase is with the partner company, not with KoreaKeys. Their terms, refund rules, and privacy policy apply, and they handle customer support for your booking. We don’t receive your payment details. See our Privacy Policy for more.
