Affiliate & sponsor disclosures

TradeTested is reader-supported and vendor-supported. Here's exactly how we make money:

• Affiliate commissions: some links may earn us a commission if you buy. When a link is an affiliate link, we say so next to it, and those links carry rel="sponsored". As of 2026-10-13, no affiliate links are active on this site.
• Sponsored placements and featured listings: vendors can pay for labeled placements. These always carry a visible "Sponsored" label, appear separatelyquot;SponsoredThese are always marked "Sponsored" or "Featured", appear separatelyquot; label, appear separately from rankings, and use rel="sponsored" links.
• Paid review fast-track: vendors can pay to have their listing reviewed sooner. Paying changes when we review a tool, never the result.
• Audits: we sell AI-visibility audits to vendors. Buying one has no effect on any listing, ranking or score.

Paid ranking positions are deceptive under FTC guidance, so we don't sell them.
