How We Make Money

StackPick is free to use. We make money when our recommendations help you choose software — and only when that choice is honest.

Affiliate commissions (primary)

Some outbound links are affiliate links (/r/{tool}). If you sign up or pay through one, the vendor may pay us a commission. You pay the same price as going direct.

Active referral paths currently include Hub.xyz, Crowtado, Make, AiSensy, Gallabox, Brevo, ActiveCampaign, Systeme.io, Smartlead and Happierleads. Current link status appears on our affiliate status page. Many comparisons also link to tools with no active affiliate program — we still show them when the data supports it.

Commissions do not change scores. Ratings come from structured JSON fields, not from who pays us.

What we do not sell

• No pay-for-placement rankings
• No sponsored “#1 tool” badges
• No paid reviews
• No data brokerage (we do not sell your email)

Email list

The footer, decision tools and calculators offer price-change alerts. We store emails on our own server for that purpose and send only after a tracked price changes — not as a weekly marketing blast.
