How we are paid, and who we have turned down
One company can pay PerGraft, and only when a reader chooses to use its link. Everything else on the site earns nothing, including most of what we recommend.
PerGraft earns money in one way: a referral link to HairClub. If you follow it, book HairClub's free consultation and complete it, or buy from HairClub later, HairClub may pay us. The amount is set by HairClub's affiliate programme and is the same whichever of our pages you came from. Because the programme can also pay on later purchases, we may earn more if you buy something from HairClub, which is exactly why we tell you to compare its quote with others first.
Where the link appears
The link always runs through an address that begins with /go/, is marked to search engines as sponsored, and sits beside a note saying it is paid. Any page carrying it also says so near the top. It appears on our cost and financing pages, not in the steps of any checklist, and never in place of the free checks we recommend.
What the payment never changes
It does not change a price, a chart or a recommendation. Every figure on the site comes from a dated public source. The checks we tell you to make, your state medical board's licence lookup, the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery directory, the ISHRS member directory and a visit to your own doctor or dermatologist, pay us nothing, and we recommend them first. So do generic medication from an ordinary pharmacy and a fixed-rate loan from your own bank, which also pay us nothing.
We tell you to ask HairClub the same questions as any other provider, and to compare its quote with one from a clinic that pays us nothing.
Who does not pay us
No clinic, surgeon, lender or medical credit card pays PerGraft. We have no referral deals with clinics, in the US or abroad, and we do not name clinics on our pages. If that ever changes, this page will change first, and the pages affected will say so.
Programmes we have turned down
We refuse, and publish the refusal of:
- hair-loss offers on ClickBank and Digistore24, which are built on aggressive claims;
- HealthTrader, a pharmacy-style offer network;
- Luviacure, whose ambassador scheme is marketed on income claims;
- Flymedi and Medigance, which we could not verify;
- medical-tourism facilitators such as Bookimed, Qunomedical and WhatClinic, which are paid by clinics rather than patients;
- Bosley, whose affiliate programme is closed.
We also take no payment from medical lenders or card companies, including the ones whose published terms we quote, so our financing pages can describe deferred interest plainly.
