What this means for you
Using an affiliate or referral link should not increase the price you pay unless a page explicitly states otherwise. In some cases, a referral link may provide you with a discount or other benefit.
How recommendations are made
Compensation does not determine whether a product is recommended. The goal of Indie Artist Stack is to help independent musicians choose tools based on usefulness, cost, workflow fit and practical trade-offs.
How links are identified
When a page contains an affiliate or referral relationship that could generate compensation, we aim to disclose it clearly on that page or near the relevant recommendation.
Current status
Some pages may currently contain only normal, non-compensated links while affiliate and referral partnerships are being added. A standard link should not be assumed to generate compensation unless it is disclosed as such.
Editorial independence
Products can be criticized, ranked below competitors or excluded entirely even when an affiliate or referral relationship exists. The long-term value of the site depends on useful recommendations, not on maximizing clicks to every partner.
