How We Make Money
Last updated: July 9, 2026
Contractor Financing Fit Check is free for contractors. Here is exactly how the business works:
Our revenue
When a contractor decides a financing provider fits their business and enrolls through one of our referral links or introductions, that provider may pay us a referral fee or commission. That is our revenue model. We do not charge contractors, we do not sell your contact information, and we do not run third-party display ads.
How that stays honest
- The model comes first. The Fit Check decides between dealer-fee and no-dealer-fee financing before any provider is mentioned. Dealer-fee results currently earn us nothing — we recommend them anyway when the answers point there.
- Published methodology. Scoring weights and the reasons behind them are public. Close scores return "more information needed" or "both deserve consideration" rather than a forced pick.
- Verified claims. Provider facts carry source dates; conflicts in a provider's own materials are labeled as conflicts; features we cannot find advertised are labeled "not publicly advertised."
- Disclosure everywhere it matters. Near CTAs, in the footer, on results, and in ads and social content.
