Affiliate Disclosure
How Connected Collective makes money — the honest version.
We believe you should know exactly how this site earns, so here it is.
Affiliate commissions. Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission — at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is identical either way.
Amazon: Connected Collective 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.
Brand partners: We also participate in affiliate and partner programs with brands featured on this site, which may include Oura, Nanoleaf, Sleepme, BedJet, LIFX, Level, and others. Some products can be purchased directly on our site through embedded checkout provided by these brands; we may earn a commission on those sales as well.
Member subscriptions. Our paid member tiers (guides, community features) are a separate, direct way we earn — and the reason we never need to let commissions decide our recommendations.
Our promise on recommendations:
- Products earn their place through research and real-world review analysis — never commission rates.
- We recommend products we'd put in our own homes, including some that pay us nothing.
- When a better product ships, we swap our recommendation and say why.
- We don't do fake discounts or inflated "compare at" prices. Ever.
