Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency about how we fund our independent research and reviews.
As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
IPTV Encoder Box is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.
Full Affiliate Disclosure
IPTV Encoder Box participates in several affiliate advertising programs. This means that when you click on certain links on our website and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you.
Programs We Participate In
- Amazon Associates - Amazon.com and affiliated sites
- B&H Photo Video Affiliate Program
- Sweetwater Affiliate Program
- CDW Partner Program
How It Works
When you click an affiliate link on our site, a cookie is placed on your browser. If you make a purchase within a certain timeframe (typically 24 hours for Amazon, longer for other programs), we receive a small percentage of the sale as a commission.
This does not affect the price you pay. The commission comes from the retailer's margin, not from your pocket.
Editorial Independence
Our affiliate relationships do not influence our reviews.
We apply the same rigorous methodology to all products regardless of whether they have an affiliate program. Many of our top recommendations have no affiliate relationship with us. Our rankings and recommendations are based solely on technical merit, features, and value for specific use cases.
We believe this is the only way to maintain trust with our readers. Here's how we ensure our independence:
- No pay-for-play: We never accept payment for product placement, positive reviews, or favorable rankings.
- No manufacturer preview: Manufacturers cannot preview or approve our content before publication.
- Full spectrum coverage: We review and recommend products regardless of affiliate availability.
- Transparent relationships: We clearly disclose affiliate links and our relationships with retailers.
How We Use Affiliate Revenue
Affiliate commissions help us fund:
- Purchasing products for hands-on testing and review
- Maintaining and improving our website and tools
- Researching new products and technologies
- Creating detailed setup guides and tutorials
- Keeping our database of specifications current
Without this revenue, we would not be able to provide the level of detailed, independent coverage that we do. Thank you for supporting our work by using our affiliate links when you make a purchase.
How to Identify Affiliate Links
