Affiliate Relationship & Disclosure
How we keep the platform 100% free for users while supporting our server costs.
1. What is an Affiliate Link?
An affiliate link is a special URL that contains tracking parameters. When you click one of these links on our website (such as a "Buy Now" or "View Deal" button) and are redirected to a retailer's page, your browser stores a small tracking cookie.
If you complete a purchase on that retailer's site within a set window (typically 24 to 72 hours), the retailer pays us a small referral commission. This commission is paid entirely by the retailer out of their marketing budget.
2. Tracking Tags & Partner Programs
We partner with multiple affiliate programs and networks to track referrals. Our primary integrations include:
- Amazon Associates Program: As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Outbound links to Amazon India include our tracking ID (e.g.
tag=samarsamant06-21). - Flipkart Affiliate Program: We track referrals directly using campaign tags appended to Flipkart console listings.
- Cuelinks Network: For omnichannel retailers like Croma, Reliance Digital, and Vijay Sales, we run our outbound redirects through the Cuelinks monetization script.
3. Where Do the Commissions Go?
Running a high-frequency polling engine is computationally intensive. The commissions we earn help pay for our operational overhead, which includes:
- Server Hosting & Compute: Cloudflare edge network fees for running our scraper Workers.
- Database Storage: Keeping D1 SQL databases operational to maintain price history tables.
- Push Notifications: Fees for Web Push API credits to deliver notifications to mobile and desktop browsers.
- Bandwidth & CDN: Serving high-resolution product images and stylesheets to thousands of active sessions.
4. Our Editorial Integrity Guarantee
We believe that commercial monetization should never compromise trust. We enforce a strict set of rules to keep our data completely objective:
Our Promise to You:
- Zero Price Markups: You will pay the exact same price whether you buy through our link or navigate to the retailer directly. We never add hidden fees.
- Cheapest Price First: We list retailers sorted purely by price and stock availability, regardless of whether a retailer pays a commission. If a non-affiliate store (like a local Sony Center shop) has the lowest price, they are highlighted at the top.
- Independent Stock Status: Affiliate relationships do not influence stock tracking data. We report stock availability purely based on our scraping engine findings.
5. Managing Cookies & Tracking Preferences
If you do not want your clicks tracked, you can reject advertising and tracking cookies at any time via our Cookie Settings banner (click the cookie icon in the bottom-left corner of the viewport). You can also clear your browser cache and cookies after visiting our links to clear tracking sessions.
