Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: September 1, 2026

The short version: 10Best Lifestyle earns commissions when you click links on our site and make purchases on the brands' websites. This does not affect the price you pay, and it does not influence our reviews or rankings.

What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing model where a website (like ours) earns a commission by referring customers to a brand's website. When you click an affiliate link on our site and make a purchase, the brand pays us a small commission as a thank you for the referral. You pay the same price whether or not you use our link.

How We Earn

10Best Lifestyle participates in multiple affiliate programs. This means that when you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase on the linked brand's website, we may receive a commission. The specific programs we participate in include:

  • Direct affiliate partnerships with brands
  • Affiliate networks such as ShareASale, Commission Junction, and Impact
  • The Amazon Associates Program

The commission we earn varies by brand and product category, but it typically ranges from 1% to 30% of the purchase price. This is paid by the brand, not by you.

Our Commitment to Independence

We want to be absolutely clear: affiliate commissions do not influence our editorial content, product rankings, or recommendations. Our review process is independent of our affiliate partnerships. Here is how we maintain our integrity:

  • Editorial Independence: Our writers and editors select products based on research and testing, not affiliate potential.
  • Honest Reviews: We include both pros and cons for every product we review. We do not inflate ratings to earn more commissions.
  • Transparent Rankings: Our top 10 lists are based on defined criteria, not on which brand pays the highest commission.
  • No Paid Placements: Brands cannot pay to be featured in our top 10 lists or to receive a positive review.

Why Affiliate Links Matter

Affiliate commissions are our primary source of revenue. They allow us to:

  • Fund our product testing and research process
  • Keep our content free for all readers
  • Maintain an independent, ad-free reading experience
  • Continuously improve and expand our review coverage

By using our affiliate links when you decide to make a purchase, you support our work at no extra cost to yourself. We genuinely appreciate it.

How to Identify Affiliate Links

Most links on our site that point to brand websites are affiliate links. We do not hide this fact. Links that are affiliate links may include tracking parameters, and clicking them may set cookies on your browser. You can always choose not to click these links and visit the brand's website directly.

Your Trust Matters Most

We understand that trust is earned, not given. We are committed to being transparent about how we operate. If you ever have questions about our affiliate relationships or our review process, please do not hesitate to reach out.
