How we make money
Some Buy links are affiliate links. If you purchase after clicking, the retailer may pay us a commission. Your price stays the same.
The commission
We do not sell the products, and we do not charge you to use the lists. The way the site gets paid is a commission from an affiliate program after a purchase that started from one of our links.
An affiliate link carries a code that tells the retailer the visit came from Value Servings. You do not type the code in. It is already on the link. The programs we use can include a brand's own store, iHerb, Amazon Associates, and other programs we join.
The commission comes out of the retailer's marketing budget. We do not add a fee on top of the price, and we do not receive a private price to show you.
What the commission does not change
- It does not change the price on the row.
- It does not decide which product appears first.
- It does not decide which badge a product gets.
- It does not decide whether a product appears at all.
Each list starts with a brand people already buy, then anything cheaper per serving. If we ever run a paid placement, it will sit under the list and say so. The top row is not for sale.
Creator codes
Some people share a Value Servings link with a short code on the end. That code lets us credit them if a sale happens. It does not change the price or the sort order.
What happens after you click
Buy sends you to the retailer. From there, the order, the shipping, and the return policy are between you and that seller. We record the click so the commission can be attributed. What we record is described in the privacy policy.
