Affiliate disclosure

Some links on WiserStaff are affiliate links. If you click one and buy, I may earn a commission — at no extra cost to you. That's it. This page explains exactly how that works, so you always know where I stand when I recommend a tool.

How affiliate links work here

When I link to a tool I'm an affiliate for, the link runs through a clean redirect on this site (a /go/<tool> link) before sending you to the vendor. If you then sign up or buy, the vendor pays me a referral commission. You pay the same price you'd pay going direct — the commission comes out of the vendor's side, never yours.

How to spot an affiliate link

Affiliate links are marked for search engines as rel="sponsored", and every page that recommends a paid tool carries a short disclosure above the recommendation — not buried at the bottom. Not every link is an affiliate link: I link to plenty of tools I earn nothing from when they're the right answer.

Commissions never change my rankings

This is the line that matters. A commission never buys a better ranking, a softer verdict, or a spot on a "best" list. Independent — not owned by any vendor. Every tool is tested with my own accounts and money. If the tool that pays me is the wrong pick for you, I say so — and I regularly recommend tools with no affiliate program at all when they're better.

How I test, and when I haven't yet

I test tools with my own accounts and my own money, build a real workflow, and report what I actually measured. When a tool hasn't been tested hands-on yet, its page says "review in progress" rather than showing a score — I don't publish invented ratings or pricing to fill a gap. A recommendation only carries a verdict once I've used the tool myself.

Programs I work with

As programs are approved, I may earn commissions from tools including Deel, Gusto, Manatal, Breezy HR, Recruitee, and Freshworks, through networks such as PartnerStack and Rewardful. Being in a program never changes how a tool is rated against the others.

FTC & UK compliance

This disclosure is made in line with the U.S. FTC Endorsement Guides (16 CFR Part 255) and UK CMA/ASA guidance on clearly identifying paid and affiliate relationships. The goal is simple: you should never be surprised to learn a link was an affiliate link.
