Affiliate links on this site
UK Business Stack participates in affiliate programmes with some of the software and service providers featured on the site. Where a page contains an affiliate link and a reader follows it to purchase or sign up, we may receive a commission from that provider. In normal circumstances, using an affiliate link does not increase the price you pay. Not every company or product mentioned, reviewed or compared on this site is an affiliate partner, so the presence or absence of a commercial relationship should not be read as a statement of quality.
How commissions work
Affiliate links may contain tracking information that allows a provider, or an affiliate platform acting on its behalf, to attribute a referral back to this site. Where that referral results in an eligible purchase or sign-up under the relevant programme terms, UK Business Stack may receive a commission. Terms differ from one programme to another, so the conditions, eligibility and timing of a commission are set by each provider or platform rather than by us.
Affiliate networks and direct partnerships
Commercial relationships may be managed directly with a provider, or through a third-party affiliate or partner platform that handles tracking and reporting on the provider's behalf. We do not list every partner or network on this page, because relationships are added, changed or ended over time. The disclosure is written to stay accurate as those arrangements change.
Editorial independence
Affiliate relationships do not determine our editorial conclusions, ratings, rankings, recommendations, inclusion or level of coverage, and a commercial relationship never guarantees higher placement or favourable treatment. A product with no commercial relationship with us may still be reviewed, compared or recommended, and a product we work with commercially may still be criticised or left out of a recommendation. Editorial suitability for the reader is judged separately from how the site is funded.
How products are assessed
When assessing a product we may consider the factors that matter to UK businesses, including suitability for the intended use case, features and limitations, ease of use, implementation considerations, pricing and value where reliable information is available, UK suitability, integrations and workflow fit, and practical trade-offs. Assessment draws on available research, published product information and editorial judgement, and does not imply hands-on testing of every product listed.
Pricing and product information
Software pricing, plans, features and availability change frequently, and outbound links may lead to offers that have since been updated. We aim to keep product information accurate and useful, but we do not guarantee that every price, feature or plan described on the site remains current. Readers should verify current commercial terms directly with the provider before purchasing.
Why we use affiliate links
Affiliate revenue helps support the operation, research, maintenance and continued development of UK Business Stack, including the time spent keeping comparisons and reviews up to date. Using these links is optional, and readers are free to visit any provider directly.
Commercial relationships and disclosure
We aim to disclose commercial relationships transparently wherever they exist. If a page carries an affiliate link, there may be a commercial relationship behind it. If a page does not, that does not mean the product is better, worse, or more or less recommended than one that does. Commercial arrangements and editorial assessment are kept separate, and disclosing a relationship should never be read as an endorsement.
Affiliate relationships vs commercial collaborations
Affiliate relationships are separate from paid commercial collaborations. Affiliate links may earn a commission when a reader makes a purchase, while commercial collaborations are paid placements or contributed content that are reviewed and approved under our commercial editorial policy. Both types of relationship are disclosed where appropriate, and neither determines ratings, verdicts, recommendations or editorial conclusions.
Questions or corrections
If you have questions about affiliate relationships or how we disclose them, or you believe product or pricing information on this site needs correcting, please contact us through our contact page. We review feedback and update content where information is found to be inaccurate.
