Generate an affiliate disclosure
If your website or content contains affiliate links, where you earn a commission on purchases, advertising rules require you to disclose that relationship clearly. This generator produces an affiliate disclosure statement, either a short inline version to place near the links or a fuller standalone statement. Enter your site name and the template explains that you may earn commissions at no extra cost to the reader and that your recommendations are honest.
Clear disclosure is a legal expectation in many places and builds trust with your audience.
Disclosing affiliate relationships
Regulators such as the United States Federal Trade Commission require that material connections, including affiliate commissions and sponsorships, be disclosed clearly and conspicuously so audiences can weigh any bias. A disclosure should be easy to notice and understand, placed close to the relevant links rather than buried in a separate page. Failing to disclose can lead to enforcement action and damages credibility.
This is a general template; the exact wording and placement that satisfy the rules in your jurisdiction should be confirmed, and honesty in your recommendations remains essential. All generation happens locally in your browser.
