How Penny Wise Home Makes Money
Penny Wise Home is a free resource built to help renters and small-space dwellers make smart, budget-friendly decisions for their homes. Running this site takes time and money, and one of the ways we keep it going is through affiliate partnerships.
Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. That means if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. The price you pay stays exactly the same whether you use our link or go directly to the retailer.
What This Means for Our Content
Our affiliate relationships never influence what we recommend. When we feature a product in our roundups, guides, or reviews, it’s because we believe it genuinely serves our readers — not because we stand to earn a commission from it. We regularly recommend products and stores that we have no affiliate relationship with, and we’ll tell you when something isn’t worth your money even if we could earn from it.
We will never recommend a product solely because it pays a higher commission. That would go against the entire purpose of this site, which is to help you spend less and spend smarter.
Our Affiliate Partners
We participate in several affiliate programs, including but not limited to:
Amazon Associates Program — Penny Wise Home 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.
Other retail affiliate programs and networks that are relevant to home products, furniture, organization, and decor.
As we grow, this list may expand. We will update this page accordingly.
How to Identify Affiliate Links
We aim to be transparent. Posts that contain affiliate links will include a disclosure statement near the top of the article. In most cases, affiliate links point to product pages on major retailers like Amazon.
Our Editorial Standards
Every product we recommend goes through the same evaluation regardless of whether an affiliate link exists for it. Our writers and editors select products based on value, quality, reader relevance, and honest assessment. We do not accept payment from brands in exchange for positive coverage.
If a product is sent to us for review, we will disclose that clearly in the article.
