Disclosure, your way

Every paid article is labelled at the top and wherever it is listed. You choose the label:

  • Brand Connect
  • Partner Content
  • In association with [your brand]

You can word the closing note with us, so it reads naturally for your brand. It must say plainly that the article is a paid partner feature, in line with the Advertising Standards Council of India’s guidelines.

Article guidelines

  • Original and unpublished anywhere else, 800 to 1,500 words, written for Indian readers.
  • Topics: personal finance, banking, insurance, tax, investing, fintech, real estate, NRI money and consumer rights.
  • Facts sourced; figures and claims accurate and current. No filler or spun text.
  • Images as set out in the image guidelines below.
  • Up to 2 links to your relevant pages, with natural anchor text, marked rel=“sponsored”.
  • Financial-services brands share their RBI, SEBI, IRDAI or PFRDA registration.
  • We may edit for accuracy, style and compliance, and may decline any article.

What we don’t accept

  • Payday or instant-loan apps, and any lender not registered with the RBI
  • Crypto, forex trading, betting, gambling or casino offers
  • Multi-level marketing and get-rich-quick schemes
  • Stock tips, guaranteed returns or investment advice from an unregistered adviser
  • Adult content, CBD, pharmaceuticals or health claims
  • Political content, and anything attacking a named person or competitor

Image guidelines

  • One featured image, at least 1200 x 675 pixels (16:9), in JPG or WebP, under 500 KB. No image? We use Oquilia's engraved house cover at no extra cost.
  • Up to 2 more images in the body, in the same formats.
  • You must own or have licensed every image; send the source or licence with your draft. A credit line appears under each image.
  • No watermarks, ad banners, logo-led artwork or text-heavy graphics. Screenshots are fine if legible and free of personal data.
  • No photos of identifiable people without their consent, and no AI-generated images of real people.
  • Add one sentence of alt text for each image, describing what it shows.

Our newsroom is not for sale

Brand Connect is run separately from the newsroom. Partners cannot buy, review or influence our news coverage, investigations, Oquilia Scores or comparisons, and Brand Connect articles are never presented as news. Our full position is on the editorial independence page.

Questions

Are the links do-follow?

Links in Brand Connect articles carry rel="sponsored", which is how Google asks publishers to mark paid links. Your readers can still click straight through to your pages.

How quickly will my article be published?

Within 1-4 working hours of final approval and payment.

Can I choose how the article is labelled?

Yes. Choose "Brand Connect", "Partner Content" or "In association with" followed by your brand name, and word the closing note with us. Every paid article carries one of these labels at the top.

Will my article appear in Oquilia's news section or in Google News?

No. Brand Connect articles live in their own section and are never presented as news. Partners cannot buy or influence our news coverage, investigations, scores or comparisons.

Do you accept financial-services brands?

Yes, if the brand is registered with its regulator (RBI, SEBI, IRDAI or PFRDA) and shares its registration with us. We do not accept payday or instant-loan apps.
