Totopnine may include affiliate links, referral links, sponsored placements, paid listings, partnerships or other commercial relationships.

This Affiliate Disclosure explains how Totopnine may earn money and how we aim to keep our content transparent.

1. What affiliate links are

Some links on Totopnine may be affiliate or referral links.

This means that if you click a link and then purchase a course, sign up for a platform, submit a form or take another action, Totopnine may receive a commission, referral fee or other compensation.

This does not necessarily change the price you pay unless clearly stated.

2. Why we use affiliate links

Affiliate links help support Totopnine and allow us to operate the website, review courses, publish content, maintain course listings and improve the course discovery experience.

Our goal is to help players find useful courses and learning resources for poker, chess and video games.

3. Commercial relationships

Totopnine may earn money through:

• affiliate commissions;
• referral fees;
• paid course listings;
• sponsored placements;
• advertising;
• partnerships with coaches, schools or course platforms;
• direct payments for services or listings;
• other commercial arrangements.

If a course, coach, platform or product has a commercial relationship with Totopnine, we may disclose that relationship where appropriate.

4. Editorial independence

Commercial relationships may influence which courses, coaches, platforms or resources are available on the website.

However, we aim to keep our content useful, clear and relevant to players.

A paid relationship does not automatically mean that a course is right for you. You should review the course details, provider terms, refund policy, price, format and suitability before making a purchase.

5. Course listings and reviews

Totopnine may publish course listings, summaries, comparisons, reviews, rankings or recommendations.

These may include affiliate links or links to third-party providers.

A listing, review or recommendation should not be understood as a guarantee of quality, results, winnings, rating improvement, rank improvement or personal suitability.

Learning outcomes depend on many factors, including your current level, practice habits, time, discipline and the course itself.

6. Third-party providers

Many courses listed on Totopnine may be created, sold, hosted or delivered by third-party coaches, schools, platforms or companies.

When you click a third-party link or buy from another website, you may be subject to that provider’s own terms, privacy policy, refund policy and support process.

Totopnine is not responsible for third-party checkout, billing, course delivery, technical issues, refunds or customer support unless clearly stated.

7. Sponsored content

From time to time, Totopnine may publish sponsored content or accept payment for placement.

Sponsored content may include course features, partner articles, banners, email placements, category placements or other promotional formats.

Where content is sponsored, paid or commercially influenced, we aim to make that clear to users.

8. No guaranteed results

Totopnine may contain content about poker strategy, chess training, video game improvement, coaching, mindset, decision-making and competitive play.

No course, coach, platform or resource can guarantee specific results.

Totopnine does not guarantee:

• poker winnings;
• tournament results;
• bankroll growth;
• chess rating improvement;
• video game rank improvement;
• esports performance;
• professional results;
• income from gaming;
• any specific outcome from using a course or service.

9. No gambling or financial advice

Some content or course listings may relate to poker.

Totopnine is not a gambling operator, casino, poker room, betting site or financial advisor.

Poker-related content is provided for educational and informational purposes only. It is not gambling advice, betting advice, financial advice or a recommendation to risk money.

You are responsible for complying with the laws that apply to you.

10. User responsibility

Before buying any course or service, you should consider:

• whether the course matches your level;
• whether the topic is relevant to your goals;
• who created the course;
• what is included;
• the price;
• the refund policy;
• the provider’s reputation;
• the terms and conditions of the third-party platform.

Totopnine may help you discover options, but the final decision is yours.
