Commercial relationships
Disclosure
PickBadger is not an independent publication. It runs paid advertising campaigns for the brands it covers and earns commission on purchases made through its links, and both of those things are disclosed on every page that carries a link.
PickBadger has a paid business relationship with every brand listed on this page and earns a commission on purchases made through links on this site.
What the relationship is
Two things, running at the same time, for every brand currently covered:
- Paid advertising. PickBadger is paid to plan and run advertising campaigns for these brands. That is a commercial engagement well beyond an affiliate link, and it is a material connection that has to be disclosed under FTC guidance and equivalent rules elsewhere.
- Affiliate commission. Outbound links to a brand’s store may earn
PickBadger a commission if you buy. Those links carry
rel="sponsored nofollow"and open in a new tab.
Because both apply, every review on this site uses the stronger of the two disclosure variants, naming the brand, and it renders above the first link on the page rather than in the footer.
What we do not claim
Two lines appeared in early design work for PickBadger and appear nowhere on the live site: chosen independently by our editors and we buy or borrow every unit we test. Both are false here, and a false independence claim on a page with a paid relationship behind it is precisely what regulators act on.
What makes a review on a site like this defensible is not a claim of independence. It is three things that can be checked: the source and date of every figure, a limitations column that is never shorter than the strengths column, and a disclosure you cannot miss.

Prices
Every price shown carries the date it was checked. Prices move, and an undated price on an affiliate page is a small lie that compounds. If the date beside a price looks old, treat the figure as stale and use the link to check the current one.
Product imagery
Product images are sourced from each brand’s official product page and shown to identify the item being discussed. Image rights remain with their respective owners. PickBadger does not present manufacturer photography as its own.
