This never affects the guide
No restaurant can pay to appear, to rank higher, or to be flagged (or not flagged). The listings are drawn purely from public Google and TripAdvisor data by the method described on our open data page. The commercial links — tours, hotels, "book on TripAdvisor" — sit alongside the data; they are never an input to it. That firewall is the whole reason the site is worth trusting.
The one place the money is visible in the ordering is the button stack on each restaurant page, where the free Google Maps link comes first because it is the most useful thing you can click.
Cookies
