Commercial and verification policy
tantra.ie separates eligibility, verification, editorial ranking and commercial visibility. Money can buy additional presentation or clearly labelled promotion. It cannot buy a favourable verdict.
Free access and eligibility
Eligible practitioners can retain a basic editorial listing without payment. Corrections, responses and delisting requests are also free. A listing can be refused or removed when it no longer meets the published standards.
Claiming is not verification
A claimed profile means we checked that the claimant represents the practice. Verification is a separate evidence review. Its public label is limited to “Identity & credentials checked” and states the review scope and date.
Payment does not control verification
The check fee covers manual work. It does not guarantee approval. A professional subscription does not create or preserve a verification badge, suppress corrections, prevent delisting or alter review outcomes.
Paid presentation
Purchased presentation is labelled. Payment does not change ordinary editorial ordering. Payment does not change the facts recorded in a profile. tantra.ie publishes the commercial relationship at the point where it could influence a reader.
Events
Basic editorial event coverage is free. An optional €29 expanded presentation includes an organiser-supplied image, up to 300 additional edited words, fuller programme and facilitator information, and one amendment round. It is labelled and never changes date ordering or eligibility. Existing agreed customer commitments are honoured. Submission does not guarantee acceptance. Organisers remain responsible for services, bookings, payments, cancellation terms and attendee safety. tantra.ie currently links out and does not process attendee payments.
Future reviews
Practitioner payment will not permit removal of criticism or selective invitation of only satisfied clients. A future “verified visit” label will describe evidence of an experience, not prove every statement in a review. Public reviews are not yet live.
Payment processing
No card checkout is currently available on tantra.ie. Payment links will not be added until the business has written acceptance from an appropriate payment provider for the directory's actual content and services.
