Why We’re Transparent About Affiliate Commissions
WattRated earns affiliate commissions when you purchase through our links. Here’s why that’s actually good for you:
- ALIGNED INCENTIVES
We only recommend products we genuinely believe in because our commission depends on your satisfaction, not just a sale. A bad product recommendation loses us your trust—and future business. - INDEPENDENT TESTING
We test products ourselves before recommending them. We don’t accept free products from manufacturers, and we’re not beholden to any brand. Our only loyalty is to you. - HONEST COMPARISONS
We recommend competitors’ products when they’re better, even though we earn the same commission. We highlight weaknesses and trade-offs, not just strengths. - COST TO YOU = ZERO
You pay the exact same price whether you click our link or go directly to the retailer. Our commission comes from the retailer, not your pocket.
How Our Affiliate Program Works
When you click a product link on WattRated and make a purchase, we earn a small commission from:
- Amazon Associates (3-5% of order value)
- Direct brand affiliate programs: EcoFlow, Bluetti, Goal Zero, Anker, Jackery, DJI
- Other major retailers
This is how we fund our testing equipment, maintain our specs database, and keep our reviews free for you.
What We Won’t Do
✗ Accept free products from brands in exchange for positive reviews
✗ Hide affiliate relationships or claim products are unsponsored
✗ Recommend inferior products because they pay higher commissions
✗ Pressure you to buy through our links
✗ Charge you more for affiliate purchases
Full Disclosure
Every product recommendation on WattRated likely has an affiliate link attached. We disclose this clearly because transparency builds trust—and trust is our most valuable asset.
