Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: March 20, 2026

Short version: Some links on this site earn us a commission if you sign up. This never changes our scores or recommendations — we tell you when a high-commission tool isn't the best choice. We're fully transparent about every relationship below.

What is an affiliate link?

When you click certain links on BagEngine and sign up for a product or service, we may receive a commission from the company whose product you purchased. This comes at no additional cost to you — the price you pay is identical whether you use our link or navigate directly to the company's website.

Affiliate links are how we fund the time and cost of testing, writing, and maintaining this site. Without them, we couldn't operate.

FTC Compliance

BagEngine complies with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255). We disclose our affiliate relationships clearly at the top of every article that contains affiliate links, and in this central disclosure page.

All articles containing affiliate links include the following disclosure near the top:

"This article contains affiliate links. If you sign up through our links, we earn a commission at no extra cost to you."

How affiliate relationships affect our editorial

They don't — and here's how we enforce that.

  • Scores are calculated independently of affiliate status. A tool with no affiliate program gets the same review process as one paying 40% recurring.
  • We highlight weaknesses in tools we earn commissions from. We would rather lose a commission than mislead a reader into a bad purchase.
  • We do not accept payment to improve scores, increase placement, or remove negative coverage.
  • Several tools we score highest (SellerBoard, Klaviyo) pay less per referral than tools we score lower. Our incentive aligns with recommending the right tool, not the highest-paying one.

Tools we review without affiliate relationships

Some tools we cover do not have affiliate programs, or we have not yet joined their programs. These tools receive identical editorial treatment. We will note in the review if no affiliate relationship exists.
