Affiliate Disclosure

The short version

back9.deals earns a commission when you click our links and make a purchase. The price you pay is never higher because of this — retailers set their own prices and we have no influence over them.

How affiliate links work

When you click a “Get Deal” link on this site, your browser may store a tracking cookie set by the retailer or an affiliate network (e.g., ShareASale, Impact, CJ Affiliate, Amazon Associates). If you complete a purchase within the cookie window — typically 24 hours to 30 days depending on the retailer — we receive a small commission, usually between 2% and 10% of the sale.

This commission comes out of the retailer's marketing budget. It does not increase the price you pay — you pay exactly the same as if you had navigated to the retailer directly.

How it affects what we cover

Our editorial standards require that every deal we publish meet a genuine value threshold — the item must be at a meaningfully lower price than its typical street price, from a reputable retailer, on a product we'd actually recommend to a playing partner.

We do not accept payment to feature specific deals. We do not give preferential placement to retailers based on commission rates. Deals from retailers with no affiliate program appear alongside those that do.

That said, you should know: when faced with two otherwise equal deals, we may choose the one from a retailer with an affiliate relationship. We will always disclose this reality here rather than pretend it doesn't exist.

Amazon Associates

back9.deals is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.

FTC compliance

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose our affiliate relationships prominently. The footer of every page on this site carries a summary disclosure. This page provides the full explanation.
