Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: June 18, 2026
SleepReports.com is reader-supported. Some of the links on this site are affiliate links, which means that if you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. We also earn revenue from display advertising. This page explains exactly how that works and why it does not affect what we recommend.
In plain terms: we may earn a commission when you buy through our links. You never pay more for it. We only earn if our research genuinely helps you find the right product.
FTC Disclosure
In accordance with the United States Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose that SleepReports.com has financial relationships with some of the brands and retailers mentioned on this site. When content contains affiliate links, we mark it with a clear disclosure so you always know when a commission may apply.
Amazon Associates
SleepReports.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. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates. Because Amazon prices and availability change frequently, any price shown for an Amazon product is provided by Amazon and is accurate only as of the time it is displayed.
Other Affiliate Programs
In addition to Amazon, we participate in affiliate and advertising programs run by individual brands and by affiliate networks (for example, Impact and similar platforms). When we link to a retailer such as a mattress or bedding brand directly, that link may also be an affiliate link. The principle is the same across every program: a commission, if any, is paid by the retailer, not by you.
How Affiliate Links Work
- You click an affiliate link on our site.
- The retailer's website sets a cookie that identifies the referral.
- If you make a qualifying purchase, the retailer pays us a small percentage of the sale.
- The price you pay is exactly the same as it would be without our link.
We do not receive your name, shipping address, or payment information from these purchases. We typically see only aggregated reporting, such as the number of orders and the total commission earned.
How We Choose What to Recommend
Our recommendations are based on independent research, not paid placement. For each product we evaluate the manufacturer's specifications, materials and certifications, trial and warranty terms, and large volumes of verified owner feedback, alongside independent expert sources. We are transparent about what this does and does not involve: we are a small, independent publisher and we do not operate a physical testing lab. You can read exactly how we research and score products on our methodology page.
Editorial Independence
Affiliate relationships never determine our ratings, rankings, or conclusions. We choose which products to cover, how to score them, and which to recommend independently of any commercial relationship. We will never rank a product higher because it pays a larger commission, and a brand cannot buy a better review.
We do not accept payment in exchange for reviews, positive coverage, or a guaranteed ranking. If a brand sends us a product to consider, that does not obligate us to review it or to review it favorably, and we disclose when a product was provided. Our credibility with you is the only asset that makes this site worth running, and we treat it accordingly.
How We Identify Affiliate Links
Pages that contain affiliate links display a disclosure near the top of the page. Affiliate and sponsored links are also tagged with the appropriate HTML attributes (rel="nofollow sponsored") in line with search engine guidelines and FTC expectations.
Why We Use Affiliate Links and Ads
Affiliate commissions and advertising are what keep SleepReports.com free to read and free of paywalls. They fund the time we spend researching products and writing sleep-health content. When our recommendations help you and you choose to buy through our links, you support that work at no extra cost.
