Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: September 23, 2026.
The short version
Some links on Rate Anything — such as the "Check price" buttons on gadget, book, and movie cards — may be affiliate links. If you click one and buy something, we may earn a commission from the retailer, at no extra cost to you.
What this means in practice
- Affiliate links are how this site pays for itself. They do not change the price you pay.
- Commissions never influence ratings, averages, or the order items appear in. The community average is the community average — money cannot buy a fifth star.
- When you click an affiliate link, you leave ratingscore.com and are subject to that retailer's own terms and privacy policy, including any cookies they set.
FTC compliance
This disclosure follows the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials: any material connection between us and a retailer — including the possibility of earning a commission — is disclosed clearly, right next to the link itself, with a line reading "As an affiliate we may earn a commission — see Disclosure."
