Affiliate Disclosure

Tokyo Side Streets may use affiliate links on relevant booking or comparison pages. If you book or buy through those links, the site may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

How affiliate links are used

  • Commercial links should be used only when they match the article intent.
  • Comparison pages should explain recommendation criteria before making a recommendation.
  • Informational guides should not hide commercial intent behind generic CTA language.

How disclosures appear on the site

  • When a page uses affiliate links, it should include a clear disclosure near the relevant section.
  • Commercial link blocks should appear only when they match the article intent and a live partner link exists.
  • Outbound commercial links should remain limited to contextually relevant comparisons or booking decisions.

Editorial independence

Affiliate relationships should not override the site’s reporting basis, route logic, or stated recommendation criteria. If a link exists, it should serve the traveler first.
