What the slot includes.

Exposure sits beside the workflow readers already use: compare qualified yields, inspect risk, run Yield Alpha, then act.

Decision adjacency

Discover, Radar, Yield Alpha, and research hubs. Not unrelated banners.

Category exclusivity

One partner per category at founding rates. No shared shelf auctions.

Ranking independence

Sponsors never affect APY, TVL, risk, qualification, search, or Yield Alpha outcomes.

Partners cannot buy rankings.

Commercial modules stay separate from APY, TVL, risk, qualification, search, filters, and Yield Alpha decisions. Labels stay visible. If a sponsor module fails, research keeps working.

FAQ

Common questions

Each Founding Partner slot is exclusive within its category. For example, only one Exchange Partner and only one Yield Alpha Presenting Partner at founding rates.
No. Partners cannot buy rankings, qualification, risk labels, search order, filters, or MOVE / STAY / WATCH outcomes. Sponsored modules are labeled and isolated.
Logo, short benefit line, and a verified destination URL. Placements follow Yield.ly creative standards: restrained, labeled Sponsored or Presented by, never mimicking organic rows.
After commercial and compliance review, plus creative approval. Timing depends on contract and asset readiness. We do not publish a fixed SLA on this page.
Join the waitlist for that category. We notify waitlisted applicants if a slot opens or if a related custom package is a better fit.
No. Founding Partners are direct-sold, category-exclusive placements. No ad networks, no pay-to-rank, no invented urgency.
