This page explains how PricingLog makes money — in plain language, because that's the only honest way to write it.

The current state

As of the last update of this page, PricingLog has no active affiliate partnerships. Every link to a tool on this site is a plain link to the vendor's website. Nobody pays us anything when you click it.

What may change, and how you'll know

Over time, some tool links may become affiliate links. When that happens for a specific tool, three things will be true: (1) the program will be listed on this page, (2) any page containing an affiliate link will carry a visible disclosure notice near the top, and (3) if you buy through such a link, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

We only join an affiliate program after two checks pass: the program has approved this site, and its payout method has been verified to actually work for us. Until both are true, links stay plain — even for tools whose programs we've applied to.

The rule that never bends

No commercial relationship changes a number, a table, an ordering, or a recommendation on this site — ever. Tables sort by data (price, cost per unit, verification date), never by commission. Coverage decisions are made from search demand and reader usefulness, not from whether a program exists. Several tools tracked here have no affiliate program at all and receive identical treatment — their presence is the proof of the policy.

What we don't do

Active affiliate programs

None. This list is updated within 7 days of joining or leaving any program.
