Advertising, Affiliate & Referral Disclosure

Advertising & Referral Disclosure

How Grants.com makes money

Grants.com is free to use because we earn revenue in three clearly disclosed ways.

Funding partner referrals

When you request a connection to a funding provider, or consent during intake, and a partner serves you, that partner may compensate us. This does not change what the assessment tells you. Qualification criteria reflect the partner’s actual underwriting standards, and we tell you when your profile does not fit.

Affiliate links

Some resources we recommend, such as business banking, credit building, and formation services, may pay us a commission if you sign up. Affiliate links are labeled where they appear.

Grants.com Pro membership

Our paid research product is priced and described on the Pricing page.

What payment does not influence

We do not sell placements in the grant database, rank grants based on payment, or sell your information to list brokers. If sponsored listings are introduced in the future, they will be labeled directly on the listing.
