Affiliate disclosure
A short explanation of how Bored Hoard may earn money without turning the stash into a pay-to-play directory.
Last updated · 11 November 2026
What affiliate links mean
Some links on Bored Hoard may be affiliate links. If you follow one of those links and later buy or subscribe to something, Bored Hoard may receive a commission from the company. You pay the same price unless the destination offers a separate promotion.
Editorial decisions come first
An affiliate relationship does not buy inclusion, approval, a higher ranking, a better description or a favourable recommendation. We decide what belongs on Bored Hoard independently of whether a site or company has an affiliate programme.
Likewise, a site owner cannot pay to become part of the editorial catalogue. Affiliate links are considered only after a product has already passed the same relevance and quality bar as anything else we feature.
Why we use them
Bored Hoard is built to help people discover useful, strange and overlooked corners of the web. When a paid product is genuinely relevant to that mission, an affiliate link can help support the work without charging readers for access.
Your choice
You are never required to use an affiliate link. Check the destination's own pricing, terms, privacy policy and cancellation rules before signing up or making a purchase. Bored Hoard does not control what happens after you leave the site.
