Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: 2025-12-12
FTC Disclosure
As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) requires us to disclose that we have affiliate relationships with certain companies. This means we may earn a commission when you click on our product links and make a purchase.
How We Make Money
3DPrinterAdvice.com earns commissions through the Amazon Associates Program.
Amazon Associates Program
- As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases when you use our Amazon links.
When you click on a product link on our site and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission. This commission helps support the operation of this site and allows us to continue providing free content and recommendations.
What This Means For You
You pay the same price whether you use our link or not.
The commission we earn comes from Amazon, not from you. There is no extra cost to you for clicking through our affiliate links. The price you pay is the same as if you went directly to Amazon.
Our Commitment to Honest Recommendations
This affiliate relationship does NOT influence our recommendations.
We only recommend products we believe are genuinely good choices, based on research, community feedback, expert reviews, and (where possible) our own testing.
Our recommendations are based on thorough research and genuine product quality, not on commission rates. We prioritise helping you find the right product for your needs over maximising our earnings.
Quality Over Commission
We could earn more by recommending different products. We don't.
Helping you pick the right product for your needs matters more than maximising our commission. Our recommendations are based on thorough research and rigorous analysis—not on what earns us the most. Your trust matters more than any single transaction.
How We Choose Products
Every product we recommend is thoroughly researched using multiple independent sources, including professional reviews, expert communities, and user feedback. We evaluate products based on quality, performance, value, and real-world reliability.
Commission rates do NOT factor into product selection. We only recommend products that meet our quality standards and genuinely serve our readers' needs.
Why We Use Affiliate Links
Operating this site requires time and resources:
- Researching and comparing products
- Writing and updating content
- Maintaining the site and quiz tool
- Monitoring product availability and prices
Affiliate commissions allow us to provide this service for free without intrusive ads, paywalls, or requiring you to create an account.
Non-Affiliate Links
Where possible, we also link to:
- Manufacturer websites (for product specs)
- Community forums (for discussions)
- Educational resources (for learning)
These links are provided purely for your benefit and do not earn us any commission.
