How Does Costa Rica Dental Guide Make Money?
We are often asked how our dental guide can offer free services to patients. We can’t. We all have to eat…so we all have to make money someplace. The difference is that we don’t hide how we generate revenues.
Here’s how we do it:
- We sell sponsorships on our site. We allow qualified dental clinics and dentists to purchase advertising space on our site.
- We earn money from commissions. We work with many of the leading dentists in Costa Rica. When we refer patients to these dentists, they pay us a commission. They all pay the exact same commission, to eliminate any bias. We refer our patients based on our review of their treatment needs and the best possible dental clinic to care for this patient. We receive a commission from the dental clinic for our work in development the treatment plan and coordinating the dental services with the patient.
