HighFear (highfear.com) participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means that when you click on certain links on this site and make a purchase or sign up for a service, HighFear may earn a commission — at no additional cost to you. This disclosure is provided in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255).

Amazon Associates Program

HighFear is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. Our Amazon affiliate tag is seperts-20.

This means that when you click on an Amazon product link on HighFear and make a qualifying purchase, we may earn a small commission. Amazon product links are used throughout the site — including on phobia detail pages, blog articles, and the shop — to recommend relevant books, tools, and resources.

As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates.

Mental Health & Therapy Affiliate Programs

HighFear has affiliate relationships with online therapy and mental health platforms. When you click a therapy referral link and sign up for a paid plan, HighFear may receive a commission. Our current therapy affiliate partners include:

  • Online-Therapy.com — structured CBT-based online therapy
  • BetterHelp — online counseling platform
  • Talkspace — text, audio, and video therapy
  • Calmerry — online therapy with licensed therapists
  • Panic Away — self-help program for panic and anxiety
  • Mindvalley — personal development and wellness courses

These affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content. We only recommend therapy services we believe offer genuine value to people dealing with phobias and anxiety. Commission rates do not affect which services we recommend.

Experience & Adventure Affiliate Programs

HighFear's "Chase It" pillar covers thrill-seeking and adrenaline experiences. We may earn commissions from experience booking platforms including Viator and GetYourGuide when you book an experience through our links.

How Affiliate Links Are Identified

Affiliate links on HighFear are identified with the rel="sponsored" HTML attribute and, where required, with a visible disclosure notice near the link (e.g., "Affiliate link — we may earn a commission"). Book recommendation sections on phobia and blog pages include an "Amazon affiliate links" notice.

Our Editorial Standards

Affiliate relationships never influence our editorial content, recommendations, or rankings. We do not accept payment for positive reviews. All recommendations are based on the genuine merit of the product or service. If we would not recommend something to a friend, we do not recommend it on HighFear.

The existence of an affiliate relationship does not mean we endorse a product unconditionally. We encourage you to conduct your own research before making any purchase or signing up for any service, particularly for mental health services.

No Additional Cost to You

Clicking an affiliate link and making a purchase does not increase the price you pay. In many cases, affiliate links provide access to the same price — or better discounts — than going directly to the retailer.
