How We Make Money

GearScout is a free service that helps gamers find the best gaming hardware. We earn money through affiliate commissions when you click on links to retailers and make a purchase. This means we receive a small percentage of your purchase at no extra cost to you.

Our Affiliate Partners

We work with various retailers and brands, including but not limited to:

• Amazon
• Best Buy
• Newegg
• Secretlab
• Logitech
• Razer
• SteelSeries
• And other gaming hardware retailers

Editorial Independence

Our affiliate relationships do not influence our reviews or ratings. We test products ourselves and provide honest assessments based on build quality, performance, comfort, and value. We will never recommend a product just because it pays higher commissions.

How Affiliate Links Work

When you click on a "Buy Now" or "Check Price" button on our site:

1. You are redirected to the retailer's website
2. A tracking code identifies that you came from GearScout
3. If you make a purchase, we receive a commission (typically 1-10%)
4. You pay the same price as if you went directly to the retailer

No Extra Cost to You

Using our affiliate links never costs you extra money. The commission comes from the retailer's marketing budget, not from your pocket.

Why We Use Affiliate Links

Affiliate commissions allow us to:

• Keep GearScout completely free for users
• Purchase products for hands-on testing
• Write detailed, unbiased reviews
• Pay for hosting, development, and operational costs
