Affiliate disclosure
How affiliate links and sponsored placements will be disclosed.
Commerce Stack Guide is an affiliate-supported ecommerce software directory. Some links may earn commissions, but monetization should be clear and should not override merchant-focused editorial judgment.
How commissions work
When readers click certain vendor links or sign up for software through those links, Commerce Stack Guide may receive compensation. This should not change the price paid by the reader.
Affiliate links do not determine rankings
Affiliate availability does not guarantee inclusion, favorable descriptions, rankings, ratings, category placement, or comparison outcomes. Recommendations should be based on fit, usefulness, and tradeoffs.
Sponsored placements
Future sponsored listings, paid placements, or promoted vendor opportunities will be labeled so merchants can distinguish paid visibility from editorial coverage.
Vendor submissions are separate
A vendor may submit software or share affiliate program details, but submissions still require editorial review before publication and are not automatic endorsements.
Reader trust comes first
The site is designed to make software research clearer for merchants, so disclosure language should appear near monetized links and in policy pages where readers can evaluate incentives.
Changes over time
Affiliate relationships may change as the directory grows. Commerce Stack Guide may add, remove, or update links while keeping disclosure and editorial standards visible.
