Two ways to partner with us
Reach researchers at the moment they're comparing vendors and deciding where to buy. Get listed free as an affiliate vendor, or claim a featured advertising placement to put your brand in front of our whole audience.
Affiliate listing
Send us your commission, coupon, and catalog. We evaluate whether you're a fit for our audience and competitive with the vendors we already list. If you are, we integrate you across the site — rankings, coupon table, and deals pages. There's no fee: we earn a commission on referred sales, so we only make money when you do.
What we evaluate
- Commission. Your affiliate program and rate — direct, Katalys, or a network. It has to make a listing sustainable for both sides.
- Coupon. The discount you offer our audience. A real, competitive code is a big part of what earns placement and clicks.
- Catalog & COA. What you carry and how you prove it. We check fit with what our readers actually search for, third-party COAs, and how your pricing stacks up against vendors we already list.
Applying doesn't guarantee a listing — not every catalog is a fit.
Paid placement
Claim a high-visibility spot and put your name or coupon in front of our whole audience. These are exclusive advertising slots we control on the homepage and top editorial pages — one advertiser each.
Open to non-affiliates. Availability is limited and quote-based.
Get in touch
Tell us whether you want a free listing, a paid placement, or both, and we'll take it from there. Every affiliate applicant is reviewed against our COA and reputation standards.
Partner program FAQ
How much does it cost to get listed?
Nothing. Getting listed as an affiliate vendor is free. We evaluate your commission, coupon, and catalog for fit, and if it's a match we integrate you across the site. We earn a commission on referred sales, so we only make money when you do.
How do you decide who gets listed?
We look at three things: your commission structure, the coupon you offer our audience, and your product catalog and COAs — judged on fit with what our readers search for and how competitive you are with vendors we already list. Not every applicant is a fit.
Do I have to be an affiliate to buy placement?
No. Paid placement is open to any company, including non-affiliates. We run a quick COA and quality check first — we won't advertise a vendor we wouldn't recommend — but you don't need a commission relationship with us.
How does billing work for placement?
Monthly, by invoice. Each slot is limited to one advertiser, so availability is quote-based and first-come.
