Terms

The rules for using the site, including what our numbers do and don't mean.

No earnings claims

Nothing on this site promises or suggests that you'll earn any amount of money. Examples and calculator starting values are made up and labelled that way. Real results depend on your audience, your traffic, the program and plenty you can't control, and many people who try affiliate marketing earn little or nothing.

The programs list

Payout figures and eligibility come from each company's own published page at the time it was checked, or from a third-party directory where the entry says so. Rates and rules change without notice. Check the company's current terms before you apply. Being on the list means a program was checked, not that it was tested or that we recommend it for you.

Not advice

This is general information. It isn't financial, legal, tax or insurance advice. Read each program's own terms before you join, and check with a professional about taxes on anything you earn.

Licenses

Licensing rules differ by state. Anything involving real estate, mortgages, securities or insurance advice needs a license that no referral arrangement replaces.

Test results

When we publish a test, it describes what happened to us, on our sites, during the dates shown. Programs change, and your results may be different.

Program names

Program and company names belong to their owners. Mentioning one doesn't mean they're affiliated with us or approve of what we say.

The calculator

It does arithmetic on the numbers you enter. It's an estimate, and it's only as accurate as those numbers.

Sharing our stuff

Share and link to anything. Quote us with credit. Don't republish whole pages as your own.

Limits

The site is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, we're not liable for decisions you make based on what you read or calculate here.
