Affiliate Disclosure — how GetOmnichannel makes money
This page explains how GetOmnichannel earns revenue from affiliate relationships, sponsored content, and commercial partnerships — and how we keep those relationships separate from our independent editorial reviews and recommendations.
GetOmnichannel is an independent review and comparison site covering omnichannel platforms, helpdesks, live chat tools, VoIP providers, call center software, and SMS marketing tools. Here's the plain-English summary:
- Some links on our site are affiliate links that may earn us a commission.
- You do not pay more because you use an affiliate link.
- Not every link is an affiliate link; some simply point to useful documentation, research, or other resources.
- Affiliate relationships do not determine our editorial scores, rankings, or conclusions.
- Sponsored or partner content is clearly labeled and kept separate from independent reviews.
1. About This Disclosure
GetOmnichannel publishes reviews, comparisons, and buying guides covering omnichannel platforms, helpdesks, live chat tools, VoIP providers, call center software, and SMS marketing tools.
We structure our disclosures to align with applicable advertising and affiliate marketing guidance in those markets, including FTC (US), ASA and CMA (UK), and relevant EU consumer protection rules.
This page explains how we make money, how our affiliate links work, and how we keep that separate from what we actually write.
2. How We Make Money
Some links in our articles are affiliate links. If you click one — and depending on the vendor, sometimes just from the click, other times only if it leads to a signup or purchase — we may earn a commission.
This never changes what you pay.
We participate in:
- PartnerStack
- Amazon Associates, including regional programs such as Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk where applicable
- Direct affiliate programs run by individual software vendors
Not every link on the site is an affiliate link. We also link to documentation, research, and other resources that earn us nothing.
3. Where Affiliate Links Show Up
Affiliate links may appear in several types of content across GetOmnichannel, including:
- Software reviews
- "Best Softwares" and buying guide articles
- Head-to-head comparisons
- Vendor recommendation sections
Wherever a monetized link appears, we disclose it on that page — above the affiliate links themselves, not buried in a footer.
4. Why We Use Affiliate Links
Affiliate revenue funds the actual work involved in operating GetOmnichannel, including testing tools, writing and updating reviews, and keeping content current in a category where pricing and features change constantly.
This revenue helps us keep the site free and ad-light for readers.
5. Sponsored Content
We may occasionally publish sponsored or partner content in collaboration with a vendor — such as a dedicated article, co-created feature, or similar content.
Sponsorship never determines whether a tool appears in our independent reviews, how it is scored, or what conclusions we reach.
Sponsored content is handled separately from editorial review and is always visually distinct from it.
6. How Our Rankings Actually Work
Commissions and sponsorships don't decide our scores or conclusions. A tool with no affiliate program can still rank first if it tests well.
A tool that pays us a commission can still receive a mediocre review if it deserves one.
We regularly recommend products we have no commercial relationship with, and we'll deprioritize or leave out tools that perform poorly in testing or don't fit the category — affiliate relationship or not.
7. Editorial Independence
Writers are paid for research and writing, not for clicks or signups their content generates.
Nobody's compensation is tied to affiliate performance. Commercial relationships don't get a say in editorial conclusions.
8. Affiliate Disclosure at a Glance
| Question | Our approach |
|---|---|
| Do affiliate links earn us money? | Yes, some links may generate commissions from clicks, signups, or purchases depending on the vendor program. |
| Does affiliate use change your price? | No. Using an affiliate link does not increase the price you pay. |
| Is every link an affiliate link? | No. We also link to non-commercial resources such as documentation and research. |
| Do commissions determine rankings? | No. Commercial relationships do not determine our scores, rankings, or conclusions. |
| Do you publish sponsored content? | We may. Sponsored and partner content is clearly labeled and kept separate from independent reviews. |
9. Third-Party Affiliate Programs
Our affiliate relationships may involve third-party affiliate platforms or direct arrangements with software vendors. These programs may use tracking technologies such as referral parameters, cookies, or other attribution mechanisms to identify traffic generated through our links.
The exact attribution and payment terms vary by vendor and program.
10. No Guarantee of Recommendation
The presence of an affiliate relationship does not mean that we recommend a product for every reader or situation.
Our reviews and comparisons are intended to help readers evaluate software based on relevant features, pricing, use cases, and overall fit. Readers should consider their own requirements and verify current information with the vendor before making a purchasing decision.
