Retire Thailand is a free resource for Australians planning to retire in Thailand. To keep the site running and the content free, we participate in affiliate programs. This means we may earn a small commission if you click a link on our site and make a purchase or sign up for a service.
This costs you nothing extra. In most cases the price you pay is identical to going directly to the provider.
We currently work with the following affiliate programs:
International money transfer. We earn a small fee if you sign up and make a transfer. We use and recommend Wise because we genuinely believe it is the best way for Australians to send money to Thailand.
Expat health insurance. We earn a commission if you purchase a policy. SafetyWing is one of the most popular health insurance options among expat retirees in Thailand.
Hotel and apartment booking. We earn a commission on completed bookings. Agoda has the best coverage of long-stay accommodation in Thailand.
Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content. We only recommend services we have personally used or thoroughly researched and believe are genuinely useful for Australians retiring to Thailand.
We do not accept payment for positive reviews, and no affiliate partner has editorial control over our content. If we don't believe a service is worth recommending, we don't recommend it — regardless of whether an affiliate program exists.
If you have questions about our affiliate relationships, contact us.
