Advertising & Affiliate Disclosure
This page explains the site’s commercial disclosure posture.
Last updated: August 25, 2026.
Possible future affiliate links
Shipping Supplies Explained may later use affiliate links. If that happens, we may earn a commission when a reader follows a qualifying link and completes an eligible purchase or action, without increasing the reader’s price solely because of the referral.
Amazon Associates
If the site becomes an Amazon Associate, the required Amazon disclosure will be displayed and pages containing qualifying Amazon links will include clear disclosures as appropriate. The site does not claim participation before it actually occurs.
Advertising
The site may also use display advertising in the future. Advertising relationships do not determine our editorial conclusions. A product can be described as unsuitable for a use case even if an advertiser or affiliate merchant sells it.
How commercial pages are written
Buying guides should explain decision criteria, tradeoffs and use cases instead of presenting every product or supplier as a recommendation. Where we have not personally tested a product, we do not state or imply that we have.
Sponsored content
If paid sponsorship or sponsored placement is ever accepted, it will be identified clearly. Payment does not convert promotional claims into independently verified facts.
