How we write our guides.

Start with a specific task

Each guide should explain who it is for, the task it addresses, and the conditions that matter. We distinguish general concepts from product instructions and country-specific availability.

Show the basis for the explanation

We prefer official documentation for product requirements and link to the sources used. An article labeled “Based on published information” is source research; it is not a claim that the author completed a live transaction or independently tested the product.

When first-hand testing is part of an article, it must describe the method, relevant conditions, and limitations. We do not invent testing results, ratings, or independent reviewers.

Make uncertainty visible

Interfaces, supported networks, fees, and regional restrictions can change. Readers should verify current requirements with the service before acting. A general guide cannot establish whether a particular transaction will succeed.

We do not guarantee returns, safety, transaction recovery, or service availability.

Update the substance, not just the date

Publication dates identify the first release. Update dates reflect substantive changes to an article, rather than a site rebuild or a cosmetic edit. Sources are provided so readers can consult the current documentation.

Language editions are maintained separately. A missing translation is not replaced with an unrelated article or a different market guide.

Keep commercial relationships visible

A relevant sponsorship, affiliate relationship, or other material commercial interest must be disclosed near the content it concerns. Commercial arrangements do not justify unsupported claims. See our commercial disclosure for more.
