The fee does not include reviews or additional written content, just the clout of being labeled next to other brands, and it&#8217;s not currently indicated who has paid the fee. Whether it&#8217;s a desperate cash grab or a beneficial strategy to those hoping to be seriously considered in the industry remains to be seen.
