RoadGearLab.com is a participant in various affiliate advertising programs designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by linking to products and retailers.
What This Means for You
Some of the links on RoadGearLab.com are affiliate links. This means that if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission — at absolutely no additional cost to you. The price you pay is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the retailer.
How Affiliate Links Work on Our Site
When we recommend a product in our reviews, buyer’s guides, or comparison articles, we include links to retailers where you can purchase that product. If you choose to buy through one of those links, the retailer pays us a small referral fee. This is how we keep RoadGearLab running and free to read.
Our Editorial Independence
Affiliate commissions do not influence our product recommendations, rankings, or review scores. Here’s what we commit to:
- Honest reviews — We will never recommend a product we wouldn’t use ourselves, regardless of the commission.
- No pay-for-placement — Companies cannot pay to be featured or to receive higher rankings in our articles.
- Transparency first — If a product has flaws, we’ll tell you. If a cheaper alternative is better, we’ll point you there — even if it pays us less.
Affiliate Programs We May Participate In
RoadGearLab may earn commissions through affiliate programs offered by various retailers and networks. These may include major online retailers, manufacturer direct programs, and affiliate networks. Each program has its own terms and conditions.
As we grow, we may join additional affiliate programs. This page will be updated to reflect any significant changes.
FTC Disclosure
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), RoadGearLab.com discloses its affiliate relationships. We are committed to providing transparent, honest, and helpful content to our readers.
Questions?
If you have any questions about our affiliate relationships or how we fund this site, feel free to contact us. We’re happy to be transparent about how RoadGearLab works.
