How GeneratorIntel is funded and what that means for you.

Last updated: February 2026

Amazon Associates Program

GeneratorIntel.com 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.

Our Amazon affiliate ID is liveoutloud0a-20. When you click a link on this site that goes to Amazon and make a qualifying purchase, we receive a small commission. The price you pay is identical whether you come through our link or navigate to Amazon directly. You pay nothing extra.

How Affiliate Income Affects Our Editorial Decisions

The short answer: it doesn't. Our top picks are determined by research, not by commission rates. Here's our policy in plain terms:

  • No brand or manufacturer can pay to be our top recommendation. Rankings are earned, not purchased.
  • We do not accept free products, manufacturer samples, or sponsored placements in exchange for positive coverage.
  • If the best product in a category is not available on Amazon or through any affiliate program, we still recommend it and explain where to buy it.
  • We call out product flaws, warranty problems, and dealer issues even when it may reduce purchase intent and therefore our commissions.
  • Our affiliate relationships are disclosed on every page where they apply, in plain language, not buried in footers.

FTC Compliance

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR, Part 255), we disclose material connections between our site and any products or companies mentioned. Affiliate links constitute a material connection and are disclosed as described above.
