Transparency is important to us. This Affiliate & Referral Disclosure explains how Startup Deals Ltd, through OctopusBonus.co.uk, may earn referral rewards or affiliate commissions when visitors use links featured on this website.
OctopusBonus.co.uk is an independent website and is not owned, operated, endorsed by, sponsored by, or otherwise affiliated with Octopus Energy Group Limited or any of its associated companies.
1. What Are Affiliate and Referral Links?
Some links on OctopusBonus.co.uk are referral or affiliate links.
This means that if you click one of these links and subsequently sign up for, purchase, or otherwise use a product or service, Startup Deals Ltd may receive a referral reward, commission, or other benefit from the relevant provider.
For example, if you use an Octopus Energy referral link featured on this website and complete a qualifying sign-up, we may receive a referral reward from Octopus Energy.
Where the relevant referral promotion provides a benefit to the person signing up, you may also receive a reward such as account or energy bill credit, subject to the provider’s applicable terms and eligibility requirements.
Referral and affiliate income helps support the operation and maintenance of OctopusBonus.co.uk and allows us to continue providing information, guides, FAQs, and other website content.
2. Our Relationship With Octopus Energy
OctopusBonus.co.uk and Startup Deals Ltd are independent of Octopus Energy.
We are not Octopus Energy, and we do not represent or act on behalf of Octopus Energy.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, Startup Deals Ltd:
- Is not owned or operated by Octopus Energy
- Is not an agent or representative of Octopus Energy
- Is not endorsed, sponsored, or approved by Octopus Energy
- Has no authority to make commitments or representations on behalf of Octopus Energy
- Does not control Octopus Energy’s products, tariffs, prices, eligibility criteria, referral programme, rewards, or terms and conditions
References to Octopus Energy, its services, referral programme, offers, or trademarks are made for informational and referral purposes only.
Any decision to become an Octopus Energy customer is made directly between you and Octopus Energy and is subject to Octopus Energy’s own terms, conditions, policies, and eligibility requirements.
3. How We Choose Offers and Content
We aim to feature offers, referral opportunities, and information that we believe may be useful or relevant to visitors to OctopusBonus.co.uk, particularly people looking for information about Octopus Energy referral rewards and sign-up offers.
The existence of a referral or commercial relationship may influence which products, services, or offers are featured on the website.
However, we aim to make commercial relationships clear and to ensure that information presented on the website is understandable and not misleading.
While we take reasonable steps to keep information accurate and current, referral schemes and promotional offers can change.
Accordingly:
- We cannot guarantee that a particular referral offer will remain available.
- We cannot guarantee the value or amount of any referral reward or account credit.
- We cannot guarantee that you will qualify for a particular promotion.
- We cannot guarantee that information displayed on our website will always reflect the latest terms offered by a third party.
- Referral rewards may be changed, withdrawn, replaced, or subject to additional conditions by the relevant provider.
You should always check the provider’s official website and applicable terms and conditions before completing a sign-up or making a decision based on an offer featured on OctopusBonus.co.uk.
4. Referral Rewards and Cost to You
You are not charged a separate fee by Startup Deals Ltd for using a referral or affiliate link on OctopusBonus.co.uk.
Where a referral promotion provides a reward to a new customer, you may receive an incentive such as account credit after completing the qualifying requirements.
The exact value, availability, timing, and eligibility requirements of any reward are determined by the relevant provider and may change.
We therefore make no guarantee or warranty that you will receive a particular reward, bonus, credit, saving, tariff, or other benefit as a result of using a referral link.
5. Third-Party Websites and Services
Referral and affiliate links on OctopusBonus.co.uk may direct you to websites operated by third parties, including Octopus Energy.
Once you leave our website, your interaction with that third party is governed by its own:
- Terms and conditions
- Privacy policy
- Cookie policy
- Eligibility requirements
- Pricing and tariffs
- Promotional or referral programme terms
Startup Deals Ltd does not control third-party websites or services and is not responsible for their content, availability, security, privacy practices, products, services, pricing, decisions, or actions.
You should review the relevant third-party terms and policies before providing personal information, entering into a contract, or purchasing or signing up for a service.
6. No Guarantee or Warranty
Information published on OctopusBonus.co.uk is provided for general informational purposes.
While we take reasonable steps to ensure information is accurate at the time of publication, we do not warrant or guarantee that all information will always be complete, accurate, current, or applicable to your individual circumstances.
In particular, we do not guarantee:
- The continued availability of any referral programme
- The amount or value of any referral reward
- Your eligibility for a particular offer
- That a particular tariff, product, or service is suitable for you
- That using a referral link will result in a successful application or account opening
- The time it will take for a third party to provide any advertised reward
You should verify important information directly with the relevant provider before making financial or contractual decisions.
7. Advertising and Transparency
We aim to comply with applicable UK advertising requirements, including relevant guidance and rules administered by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) and contained within the UK Code of Non-broadcast Advertising and Direct & Promotional Marketing (CAP Code).
Where content constitutes advertising or where a commercial relationship needs to be disclosed, we aim to make this sufficiently clear to visitors.
This may include:
- Identifying referral or affiliate links where appropriate
- Disclosing that we may receive a referral reward or commission
- Distinguishing commercial or promotional content from purely informational content
- Avoiding claims about offers or rewards that we cannot reasonably substantiate
The presence of an affiliate or referral relationship does not mean that the third-party provider owns, operates, endorses, or approves OctopusBonus.co.uk.
8. Referral Tracking
When you click a referral or affiliate link, a third-party provider may use a referral identifier, cookie, tracking link, or similar technology to attribute a subsequent sign-up or qualifying action to us.
This allows the provider to determine whether a referral reward or commission is payable.
We do not receive your Octopus Energy password, payment credentials, or other login information through our referral links.
For further information about tracking technologies used on OctopusBonus.co.uk, please refer to our Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy.
9. Changes to This Disclosure
We may update this Affiliate & Referral Disclosure from time to time to reflect changes to our website, commercial relationships, referral arrangements, or applicable regulatory requirements.
Any updated version will be published on this page with a revised effective date.
We encourage visitors to review this disclosure periodically.
