Affiliate Disclaimer – SmartEarningTips.com

Effective Date: October 13, 2025

1. Purpose of This Affiliate Disclaimer

This Affiliate Disclaimer is designed to ensure transparency about how SmartEarningTips.com (“the Website,” “we,” “our,” “us”) earns revenue through affiliate partnerships, sponsorships, and advertising. This document complies with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Affiliate Marketing Guidelines and is applicable to users globally.

2. What Are Affiliate Links?

Affiliate links are unique URLs that track referrals from our Website to the merchant’s site. When you click these links and make a purchase, the merchant may pay us a small commission for referring you. This does not change the price you pay – you pay exactly the same amount as you would if you visited the site directly.

3. Why We Use Affiliate Links

Affiliate marketing allows us to keep this Website running and continue offering high-quality free content to readers around the world. Our affiliate partnerships help support our efforts in:

Maintaining Website hosting, design, and performance.
Funding research, content creation, and tutorials.
Providing recommendations, tools, and digital resources at no cost to readers.

4. Our Commitment to Transparency and Integrity

We never promote or recommend any product purely for financial gain. Our guiding principles include:

Honesty: We recommend only products or services we personally believe in.
Independence: We retain full editorial control over our content – affiliate partners cannot influence our reviews.
Disclosure: We disclose affiliate links clearly and prominently in every article or page that contains them.
Value First: We focus on providing information and resources that genuinely help readers, not on maximizing commissions.

5. Affiliate Programs We Participate In

SmartEarningTips.com participates in several affiliate and advertising programs, which may include but are not limited to:

Amazon Associates Program
ClickBank, Impact, and Digistore24
Canva Affiliate Program
Envato, Creative Market, and similar digital marketplaces
Software tools, online courses, and hosting platforms

Each of these programs provides a means for websites to earn advertising fees by linking to their platforms and promoting their products or services.

6. Understanding the FTC Affiliate Disclosure Rule

The FTC (Federal Trade Commission) requires all publishers and influencers to disclose when affiliate links are used. This ensures that readers understand any potential financial relationship between a website and the companies mentioned or linked to. We take this rule seriously and always disclose affiliate links clearly, whether they appear in:

Blog posts or product reviews
Email newsletters
Downloadable guides or templates
Social media posts and graphics

7. How You Can Identify Affiliate Links

Affiliate links are typically identifiable by accompanying notices such as:

“This post contains affiliate links.”
“We may earn a commission if you make a purchase through our links.”
“As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.”

We may also use in-line disclosures or visible banners at the top or bottom of a post when affiliate links are included.

8. Sponsored Content and Product Reviews

From time to time, we may accept sponsored posts, collaborations, or product reviews. Sponsored content will always be clearly labeled as “Sponsored” or “Paid Partnership.” Even in those cases, all opinions and evaluations are based on honest experiences or research.

9. No Endorsement or Guarantee

While we make every effort to recommend only reliable products and services, we cannot guarantee that any affiliate product or service will meet your expectations. Always verify offers, terms, and policies directly with the vendor before making a purchase.

10. Your Responsibility as a User

You should always perform your own due diligence before purchasing products or services mentioned on this Website. You agree that SmartEarningTips.com and its owners are not liable for any purchase decisions you make based on information found here.

11. Global Applicability

This Affiliate Disclaimer applies globally, regardless of where you access the Website. However, it is written to comply with the regulations and standards of the United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC), as well as international consumer transparency laws under GDPR and similar frameworks.

12. Updates to This Affiliate Disclaimer

We may update this Affiliate Disclaimer periodically to reflect new affiliate partnerships, regulatory changes, or content updates. The latest version will always be available on this page. Continued use of the Website after updates means you accept the revised version.
