Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: June 1, 2026
The short version
CoopCraft Guide earns commissions from some of the products and services we recommend. This costs you nothing extra. We only recommend products we have genuinely researched and believe are worth your money.
FTC Compliance
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR Part 255, "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising," CoopCraft Guide discloses that some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one of these links and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the retailer or brand — at no additional cost to you.
What Is an Affiliate Link?
An affiliate link is a specially tracked URL. When you click it, the retailer records that you arrived via CoopCraft Guide. If you complete a qualifying purchase within the retailer's cookie window, we earn a small percentage of the sale as a referral fee. The price you pay is identical to what you would pay visiting the retailer directly.
Our Affiliate Relationships
CoopCraft Guide currently uses the following affiliate program:
- Amazon Associates — As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Amazon affiliate cookies typically last 24 hours.
If we add another affiliate relationship, we will update this page and identify the relationship in the relevant content. Commissions help fund the research, writing, and maintenance of this site.
How Affiliate Relationships Affect Our Recommendations
Our editorial content is not written to maximize commissions — it is written to help you make informed decisions. Specifically:
- We include products because they are genuinely good, not because they pay the highest commission.
- We will recommend a lower-commission product over a higher-commission one if it is the better choice for most people.
- We will note significant drawbacks of products we recommend. No product is perfect.
- We do not accept payment to write positive reviews or rank products artificially.
- We do not accept free products in exchange for guaranteed positive coverage.
Display Advertising
CoopCraft Guide may display third-party ads through Google AdSense. These ads are served automatically and are separate from our affiliate recommendations. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve relevant ads based on your browsing history.
How to Identify Affiliate Links
We aim to be transparent. Affiliate links on this site may appear as:
- Buttons labeled "Check Price on Amazon," "Buy at Chewy," or similar
- Product image links within buying guides
- In-text links within articles that go to product pages
Pages containing affiliate links will include a disclosure notice at the top of the article.
