Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: May 19, 2026
Honesty matters. Here is a clear explanation of how VibeyFest makes money and what that means for you.
The short version
VibeyFest participates in affiliate marketing programs. When you book flights, accommodations, transportation, or purchase products through links on our site, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. This helps us keep the basic plan free and continue improving the product. We only recommend services we believe add genuine value to your trip.
What is an affiliate link
An affiliate link is a special URL that includes a tracking code identifying VibeyFest as the referring website. When you click an affiliate link and make a qualifying purchase, the partner company pays us a small commission. The price you pay is exactly the same as if you went to the partner directly. The commission comes out of the partner's marketing budget, not your wallet.
Which partners we work with
VibeyFest participates or plans to participate in affiliate programs with companies including, but not limited to:
- Flights: Skyscanner
- Accommodations: Booking.com, Airbnb, Expedia (for VRBO)
- Transportation: Rentalcars.com, Turo, Uber, Lyft
- Gear and equipment: REI, Amazon (Amazon Associates)
- Travel insurance: World Nomads, Allianz Travel, SafetyWing
We may add or remove partners over time. Not every link on the site is an affiliate link, but any link that takes you to a third-party booking or shopping site may be.
How we choose what to recommend
Our AI generates recommendations based on the preferences you provide, available options, current pricing, and what we believe fits your trip best. We do not recommend a partner solely because we earn a higher commission from them. If we think a non-affiliate option is better for you, we will surface that option.
That said, we are honest about the fact that affiliate revenue is what makes the platform sustainable. If two options are equally good for you, we may show the one that supports VibeyFest. The recommendation will still be one we genuinely stand behind.
FTC compliance
This disclosure is provided in accordance with the United States Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR Part 255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising." We want you to know exactly how VibeyFest works financially so you can make informed decisions about how you use the site.
Amazon Associates disclosure
VibeyFest is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
Your choice
You are never required to use our affiliate links. You can search for and book travel directly with any of these partners without going through VibeyFest. Whether you use our links or not, your plan and the recommendations within it are yours.
If you do choose to book through our links, thank you. It is what makes this product possible.
