Lol, yeah, some compliance department's way of saying:
Quite the CYA move...
But yes, no affiliate more strictly controls content than the credit cards. And so you do have to assume every blog post about them is a straight up advertisement written in compliance with affiliate requirements.
I have been pleasantly surprised with some affiliate programs like Safety Wing: they basically say 'even if you compare us to World Nomads and they come out on top we still want you to write about us because we value the honest comparison and what's important to you may not be important to others.' Can you imagine a credit card affiliate saying such a thing!?
