Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency is important to us. Here's how affiliate links work on Gift Genie.
How We Earn Revenue
Gift Genie is a free resource. To keep our content free and our team supported, some of the links on our website are affiliate links. This means that if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission from the retailer at no additional cost to you.
FTC Disclosure
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, we disclose that Gift Genie participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means we may receive compensation when you click on links to products or services on our site and subsequently make a purchase.
Our affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content. We recommend products based on genuine research and usefulness, not commission rates. See our Editorial Policy for details on how we choose what to recommend.
Affiliate Programs We Participate In
Gift Genie may participate in affiliate programs including, but not limited to:
- Amazon Associates: Gift Genie is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
- Walmart / Impact: Gift Genie may participate in the Walmart affiliate program through Impact Radius. Links to Walmart.com products are paid affiliate links, and we may earn a commission when you purchase through them.
- Other retailers: We may partner with additional retailers and affiliate networks from time to time. All affiliate links are clearly labeled.
How to Identify Affiliate Links
We label affiliate links with a small "Paid link" badge wherever they appear on our site. This makes it easy to identify which links are affiliate links. Clicking an affiliate link does not change the price you pay — it simply means we may earn a small referral fee.
Your Trust Comes First
We will never recommend a product solely because it offers us a commission. Our recommendations are based on research, quality, value, and relevance to our audience. If we wouldn't genuinely recommend something to a friend, we won't recommend it to you.
