How We Make Money
FreePrEP.org is operated by Scout Theory LLC. The site may earn revenue from disclosed affiliate relationships, advertising, or sponsorships. Commercial relationships do not determine which PrEP providers, public programs, or assistance routes are covered.
Our current affiliate relationships include:
- MISTR — Covered editorially. FreePrep.org is not currently using a tracked MISTR referral link or code and does not receive a commission from the MISTR links in this site build.
- Other telehealth platforms — We may earn commissions through affiliate networks (such as FlexOffers, Rakuten, or CJ Affiliate) when you sign up for services through links on our site.
We may also earn revenue in the future through display advertising, STI testing kit affiliate programs, health insurance marketplace referrals, and grant funding.
How This Affects Our Recommendations
It doesn't. Our editorial recommendations are based on three criteria, in this order:
- Cost to you — free options are always ranked above paid options
- Coverage quality — what's included (medication, labs, visits, delivery)
- Accessibility — state availability, insurance acceptance, ease of use
If a platform we don't earn commissions from is the best option for a user, we recommend it. If a platform we do earn commissions from charges fees while a competitor is free, we recommend the free competitor. Our credibility as a public health resource is our only durable competitive advantage — compromising it for short-term commissions would be self-defeating.
How to Identify Affiliate Links
When a link is affiliate-tracked or a placement is sponsored, FreePrEP.org labels that relationship. Ordinary editorial links are not automatically affiliate links, and providers do not receive access to your FreePrep.org browsing or health information from us.
Non-Affiliate Content
Our eligibility tool, state directory, and program status information are not monetized. These features exist to help you navigate the PrEP access landscape and generate no direct revenue for us.
