Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: May 26, 2026
1. Our Affiliate Model
ChuanFly.com (“ChuanFly,” “we,” “us,” “our”) is a reader-supported website. We earn revenue through affiliate commissions when our readers click links on our Site and make purchases on third-party merchant websites. This comes at no additional cost to you.
The price you pay for any product or service is the same whether you use our affiliate link or go directly to the merchant’s website. In some cases, you may even get a better deal through our links if we have access to exclusive promotions.
2. How We Make Money
ChuanFly is a free resource for consumers. We do not charge users for access to our reviews, comparisons, or buying guides. Instead, we generate revenue through:
- Affiliate Commissions: When you click a link on our Site and make a qualifying purchase, the merchant pays us a small commission (typically 1-10% of the sale price). This is paid by the merchant, not by you.
- Performance-Based: Our commissions are based solely on completed purchases. We do not receive payment simply for clicks or page views.
Affiliate commissions fund our research, testing, content creation, and Site operations. Your support through these links allows us to continue providing free, high-quality product reviews and comparisons.
3. Affiliate Programs We Participate In
ChuanFly is a participant in the following affiliate advertising programs:
- Amazon Associates Program: As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
- CJ Affiliate (Commission Junction): One of the largest affiliate networks with thousands of merchant programs.
- Impact Radius: A performance marketing platform connecting publishers with advertisers.
- ShareASale: An affiliate marketing network with a wide range of merchant programs.
- AliExpress Affiliate Program: The official affiliate program for AliExpress products.
- Walmart Affiliate Program: The official affiliate program for Walmart.com.
- Awin: A global affiliate marketing network.
- Other Programs: We may participate in additional affiliate programs not listed here. This page will be updated as we add new partnerships.
Each affiliate program operates independently. The commission rates, cookie durations, and payment terms vary by program and merchant.
4. How Affiliate Links Work on Our Site
Affiliate links on ChuanFly use a URL format like /go/product-slug-hash. When you click this link, you are briefly redirected through our tracking system, which records the click for commission attribution, and then redirected to the merchant’s website.
Our go-link redirect system handles all affiliate tracking transparently. You can identify affiliate links by hovering over them — the destination URL will include our redirect prefix.
5. Our Editorial Independence
Our core principle is editorial independence. Here’s what that means for you:
- We do not accept payment for reviews: No merchant can pay us to write a positive review or change a rating.
- Reviews are based on research and testing: Our recommendations reflect genuine assessment of product quality, features, value, and user feedback. See How We Score for our methodology.
- Affiliate relationships do not influence rankings: A product’s position in our rankings is determined solely by our scoring criteria — not by commission rates or affiliate relationships.
- We publish both pros and cons: Every review includes both strengths and weaknesses. We do not hide product flaws to please advertisers.
6. How We Select Products to Review
We review products based on the following criteria:
- Market Relevance: Is this product popular or important in its category?
- Consumer Interest: Are people searching for information about this product?
- Availability of Reliable Data: Can we access sufficient information to conduct a thorough evaluation?
- Category Coverage: Does this product fill a gap in our review catalog?
We prioritize products that matter most to our readers. Our selection is not influenced by affiliate commission rates.
7. Sponsored Content Policy
From time to time, we may publish sponsored content, paid placements, or advertorial content. When we do, we will clearly and prominently label it as “Sponsored,” “Advertisement,” or “Paid Partnership” so you can distinguish it from our editorial content.
As of this writing, all content on ChuanFly is editorial. If this changes, this page will be updated.
8. Price and Availability
Product prices and availability are subject to change. The prices displayed on our Site reflect the most recent information we have, but may not be current at the time of your purchase. We recommend verifying the price and availability directly on the merchant’s website before making a purchase.
9. Your Rights as a Consumer
You are under no obligation to use our affiliate links. You can always navigate directly to a merchant’s website without using our links. Using our links is a way to support our work at no cost to you, but it is entirely voluntary.
If you have concerns about a product you purchased through one of our affiliate links, please contact the merchant directly. We do not handle product returns, refunds, or customer service for third-party purchases.
10. Compliance with FTC Guidelines
We comply with the Federal Trade Commission’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising (16 CFR Part 255). This includes:
- Clear and Conspicuous Disclosure: Affiliate relationships are disclosed on every page containing affiliate links.
- Proximity: Disclosures appear near the relevant affiliate links, not just in a distant policy page.
- Plain Language: We use straightforward language like “affiliate commission” and “at no extra cost to you.”
- Honest Endorsements: Our reviews reflect our genuine opinions and experiences.
