How this site makes money

Useful first. Commercial second. We want you to understand when a link or placement may earn Rarotonga.co.nz money.

Last updated 5 September 2026

Direct local links

Many business profiles link directly to the local operator or accommodation provider. A direct link does not necessarily mean Rarotonga.co.nz receives a payment or commission.

Affiliate links

Some flight, accommodation, activity or car-hire comparison links may be affiliate links. If you make a qualifying booking after following one of those links, Rarotonga.co.nz may receive a commission. Where a page contains affiliate links, we will identify that clearly. Using an affiliate link should not increase the price you pay through that provider.

Featured businesses

From 2027, some businesses may choose to pay for extra visibility. Paid or featured placement will be labelled. A featured listing means increased visibility — it does not automatically mean a better editorial review or recommendation.

Editorial independence

Commercial relationships do not buy favourable editorial conclusions. We may correct factual information supplied by a business while keeping comparison and recommendation content independently written.

No business can pay to remove accurate material information or purchase a favourable ranking presented as independent editorial content.
