How The Grand Ledger earns money: Amazon Associates commissions, what they never buy, and how rankings stay independent of revenue.

The Grand Ledger is a free connection between readers and products sold by third parties. When you buy through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. As an Amazon Associate, The Grand Ledger earns from qualifying purchases made through our Amazon links, which carry our Associates tracking tag.

What commissions never buy

No brand can pay for placement, ranking, a review, or a kinder verdict. Products enter our guides because they are sold on Amazon and because their published specifications earn the place. Where a well-known product fails verification, we leave it out and the guide says what replaced it.

Commissions are paid by the retailer, never added to your price. The price you pay is the price on the listing, whether or not you arrived through our link.

What we do not control

The products we write about are manufactured, sold and shipped by independent brands and retailers. The Grand Ledger does not sell, stock or ship anything, and we cannot warrant any product's performance or fitness for your purpose. Always read the label, follow the manufacturer's directions and safety guidance, and verify a seller's credentials and the listing details before you buy, as you would with any retailer.

Photographs on The Grand Ledger are the manufacturers' own product photographs as published on their Amazon listings, or designed editorial plates built around them. They show the products as listed, not the people or premises of any seller.
