Editorial and Commercial Policy
Last updated on 20 October 2026. This page explains how IsMyPayRight handles advertising, affiliate links, editorial independence, and commercial disclosures.
Who we are
IsMyPayRight.co.uk is an independent UK site focused on take-home pay, payslips, tax codes, and salary-sacrifice effects. It is not owned by a payroll provider, lender, pension scheme, or financial-services firm.
The site is designed to explain how UK PAYE outcomes work. It is not personalised financial advice and it is not regulated advice.
We are not authorised by the FCA
We are not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. We do not provide regulated investment advice, mortgage advice, or personal recommendations.
If you need advice about your own circumstances, use MoneyHelper or speak to a suitably qualified professional.
How we make money
The site may use display advertising and clearly labelled affiliate partnerships to cover product costs. Those commercial elements are optional and are turned off by default until the relevant partner or ad network has approved us.
If we use affiliate links, we earn a commission when somebody signs up through that link. Every sponsored placement is labelled and every active partner should be listed on this page. Affiliate links are marked as commission-earning links before you follow them, and use sponsored link attributes.
Editorial rules we apply to ourselves
- We do not tell users what to do with their money or which product to choose.
- We do not publish best-buy tables, rankings, or product endorsements next to sponsored content.
- We keep commercial labels plain and obvious: Sponsored, Advertisement, or In partnership with.
- We disclose commission-earning links and keep commercial relationships separate from explanatory content.
- We do not attach affiliate links to employer-operated salary-sacrifice schemes such as pension, EV, Cycle to Work, or Holiday Buy.
- We cite primary sources for tax and payroll claims and correct mistakes when we find them.
Advertising and affiliate partners
Google AdSense setup is being prepared. Display ads are currently disabled on this site.
No commission-earning affiliate links or paid sponsorship placements are currently active. Applying to Awin or Partnerize programmes does not make a partner active. We will name each active advertiser, its category and its commission arrangement here when its links are introduced. Membership of a network is not an endorsement.
Calculators, payslip checking and financial result pages are excluded from the initial advertising trial. We do not pass your entered pay, tax code, payslip details or calculated results to advertising partners. On eligible articles, Google may process page, browser and device information for advertising, subject to your choices. Use Advertising choices to revisit Google consent when ads are available; Cookie settings separately controls our analytics and replay.
Google may select individual advertisers dynamically. The Google consent message lists advertising technology vendors and their purposes. We remain responsible for our placements, disclosures and site policies. Adverts and commission rates do not change our worked examples or calculation methodology.
Methodology and corrections
Commercial relationships do not change the tax logic used by the calculator or the checker. Those surfaces are aligned to the same methodology described on the methodology page.
