Affiliate disclosure

Compensation never enters the score.

StackOZ may earn a commission or receive another referral benefit from some outbound links. Those relationships do not increase eligibility, personal fit, evidence confidence, decision stability, or ranking position.

01

What may be compensated

Some outbound links may be affiliate or referral links. When a link can produce compensation or another material benefit, StackOZ identifies the relationship as sponsored or referral where practical. Other merchant links go directly to the provider with no compensation attached.

02

What compensation cannot change

Commission rate, attribution window, partner status, or referral benefit are excluded from the recommendation model. A platform can rank first with no commercial relationship, or fail an eligibility gate despite one.

03

Paid affiliate and referral relationships are different

StackOZ does not describe a relationship as a paid affiliate partnership unless that status has been confirmed. Referral links that provide a non-cash benefit, credit, or other incentive are treated separately and disclosed as referrals rather than implied cash commissions.

04

No invented experience

StackOZ evaluates published product information and transparent model assumptions. It does not claim to have personally tested every feature, migration path, or deliverability outcome.

05

Verify before buying

Software pricing, plan limits, and partner-program terms can change. Check the provider’s current plan page and contract terms before paying or moving a subscriber list.
