Affiliate & Partner Disclosure
In Compliance with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Guidelines (16 CFR § 255.5)
1. How Affiliate Relationships Work
When you click on certain links on our website (such as partner offers for Shopify, Katana MRP, Omnisend, or other e-commerce software) and subsequently sign up for a trial or paid subscription, we may receive a commission or referral fee from the provider.
This occurs at zero additional cost to you. In fact, many of our partner deals provide exclusive discounts (such as Shopify's $1/month promotional rate or extended software trial periods) that are not available elsewhere.
2. Mathematical & Editorial Independence
Our affiliate relationships never influence the mathematical formulas, algorithms, or output results of our calculators:
- Fee comparisons (Stripe vs Shopify Payments vs PayPal) are calculated purely based on published merchant rate sheets.
- Box sizing knapsack algorithms calculate optimal packaging dimensions strictly by geometric physics, regardless of partner relationships.
- All tools are built to give objective, merchant-first operational transparency.
3. Contact Regarding Partnerships
If you have questions regarding our affiliate disclosures or partnerships, direct communication channels are currently Work in Progress (coming soon).
