At WeKnowStacks, transparency and reader trust are our highest priorities. This disclosure statement outlines our financial relationships with software vendors and explains how we monetize our content.
How We Make Money (Affiliate Relationships)
WeKnowStacks is reader-supported. Some of the links on our website are affiliate links.
This means that if you click on a link to a third-party software vendor, service provider, or tool featured on our site and make a purchase or start a subscription, WeKnowStacks may receive a referral commission directly from the vendor.
This comes at zero additional cost to you. In many cases, our affiliate partnerships allow us to provide access to exclusive discounts, extended free trials, or promotional pricing that you would not receive by visiting the vendor directly.
Editorial Independence & Rating Integrity
Our reviews, comparison matrixes, and stack recommendations are guided strictly by editorial independence:
- No Paid Placement for Positive Scores: Software companies cannot pay us to guarantee a higher rating, a favorable review, or a top position in our comparison rankings.
- Objective Evaluation: We evaluate software based on actual feature sets, publicly available pricing data, user satisfaction metrics, and practical use-case relevance.
- Clear Labeling: If an individual placement or dedicated feature is ever commercially sponsored outside of standard affiliate tracking, it will be clearly marked as Sponsored Content.
FTC Compliance
In compliance with Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising, we ensure that:
- Every programmatic post, software comparison, and review page containing affiliate links displays an explicit disclosure near the top of the content before outbound links appear.
- We provide full visibility into our monetization model via this dedicated disclosure page, linked directly in our site-wide footer navigation.
