A free travel site is never really free. Someone pays for hosting, translations, and the hours spent testing addresses. At Easy Cambodia, this funding currently relies on affiliate commissions. If other forms of partnership emerge in the future (sponsored content, advertising, placement), they will always be signaled as clearly as an affiliate link, and detailed on this page. The rule doesn’t change: total transparency, every time.

What is an affiliate link?

An affiliate link is a tracked link that allows a partner to identify that a booking comes from our site. If you book through this link, the partner pays us a commission on their own margin — the displayed price is exactly the same as on their site, and you only appear to us as an anonymous number in a commission dashboard. We do not receive your name, contact details, or the details of your order. The business relationship remains strictly between you and the partner.

Our five-point charter

  1. Absolute editorial independence

    No partner has any right to review our content. A poorly organized activity does not pass, even if it brings in revenue. A partnership can be terminated on our side at any time, without notice or negotiation.

  2. No recommendation without direct experience

    We only reference a provider after testing it ourselves or through a team member. This rule applies to hotels, activities, transport providers, insurance — without exception.

  3. Same price for you, always

    The amount you pay through an affiliate link is rigorously identical to that of the partner's site. The commission is deducted from the partner's margin, not added to your bill.

  4. Clear and systematic reporting

    Each affiliate link is identified: explicit mention near the link, disclosure at the bottom of the article, reminder in the footer of the site. We never hide the commercial nature of a link.

  5. Reversibility

    If a partner degrades the quality of their service, we remove their links. If a reader reports a recurring issue, we investigate before continuing to recommend.

How we choose a partner

We are demanding because we attach our name to every recommendation. Before integrating a partner, we check:

Operational reliability

Does the provider meet their commitments? Do the activities take place as announced? Do the accommodations match the description?

Quality of customer service

What happens in case of cancellation, delay, dispute? The responsiveness and good faith of customer service are a decisive criterion.

Pricing policy

Is the price fair for the traveler, comparable to the direct price? Are there hidden fees? Is there a clear cancellation policy?

Verifiable reputation

Do independent reviews and feedback from our local network confirm the quality of service over time, not just a marketing stunt?

A particular advantage: we are also operators on one of the major activity platforms (the cruise Kanika and the Phnom Penh Heritage Tour are listed on GetYourGuide). This gives us a behind-the-scenes view — booking flows, review management, technical reliability — that a simple affiliate cannot have.

What it changes for you (spoiler: nothing)

When you go through one of our affiliate links, your experience is strictly identical to a direct booking: same price, same terms and conditions, same customer service, same cancellation policies. No additional personal data is transmitted to us, and your business relationship remains exclusively with the partner. The only difference: we receive, a few weeks later, a commission that allows this guide to exist.

How we report affiliate links

Affiliate links are reported at three levels, in accordance with Article L.111-7 of the Consumer Code and the recommendations of the DGCCRF:

At the link level: a discreet but visible mention ("partner", "affiliate link" or the corresponding icon) appears in close proximity to each commercial link. At the article level: each page containing affiliate links reminds it in its footer. At the site level: this transparency page, accessible in one click from all pages, lists our partnerships and their terms.
