Kimovil's independence and funding
On Kimovil, you compare phones and deals. When you choose a deal, you buy directly from the store. We're an independent comparison site: no brand can pay to improve its devices' position.
In short
- Kimovil doesn't sell devices: you buy from the store you choose.
- Some links to stores may earn Kimovil a commission.
- That commission doesn't increase the price you pay.
- Commissions don't change the Ki score.
- No brand can pay to improve its position or to change the algorithm.
How we're funded
If you buy through some of our links, the store may pay us a commission. This income helps us maintain Kimovil and develop its tools.
Using an affiliate link doesn't increase the price you pay.
Independent of brands and manufacturers
No brand can pay to improve its devices' position. Nor do we accept changes to the Ki score algorithm to benefit a specific model or manufacturer.
The Ki score
Affiliate commissions don't change the Ki score. This automatic rating relates more than 800 of the device's features to its price.

How we review stores
We buy from stores without identifying ourselves as Kimovil to see how they perform in a real sale: customer service, checkout process, communication and shipping.
If a store builds up delays or changes the way it operates, we monitor it more closely to detect problems and reduce the risk of fraud.
You buy from the store
The store you choose handles payment, your order, shipping, the warranty and questions about your purchase.
Availability, shipping costs, currency conversion or a coupon's terms can change the final price when you reach the store.
