How we make money

Alarm Cost Check is free to use. We may earn commission when someone clicks through to certain providers and makes a purchase or requests a quote.

Affiliate relationships

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click through and buy or request a quote, we may be paid a commission by the provider. This is at no extra cost to you.

What this means for you

Commission never changes our calculator figures or the order we show providers.The costs our calculator shows come from published or reported prices, not from how much we earn. We show providers in the order that fits your chosen monitoring type, then alphabetically — never by commission.

Providers we don't have affiliate relationships with are shown on equal terms. You'll always see the neutral "what to ask before you sign" checklist alongside any affiliate links.

No commission figures

We don't publish how much commission we earn from each provider. That's between us and the affiliate programmes, and it doesn't affect the figures you see.

Disclosure

When an affiliate link is present on a page, we show a disclosure bar at the top. Individual links that may earn us commission are labelled "Affiliate link" or similar.
