How we make money
BYBA is built to help used-car buyers avoid expensive mistakes. The free guides come first. Money should come from useful next steps, not from hiding basic answers.
Paid inspection guides
Some readers buy a printable PDF inspection pack. It is positioned as a workflow for the viewing, not as a paywall around basic reliability information.
Partner links
BYBA may earn money if a reader buys a vehicle history report, inspection, tool, or related service through a marked partner link. We do not let the partner decide the verdict or fault ranking.
Editorial rule
The car risk assessment comes from the guide data first. Commercial links are added only where they are a logical next step for the buyer.
What we avoid
No fake reviews, no fake sales counters, no hidden pay-to-rank placements, and no recommendation that makes the page less useful to the buyer.
Partner links are active on this site. Links that pay BYBA a commission are marked as partner links near the link itself, and they never change the price you pay.
