This page explains our relationships with the companies whose products we review, in compliance with the US Federal Trade Commission's Endorsement Guides.
Affiliate programs we participate in
Readiolist is a participant in the following affiliate programs:
- Amazon Associates — we earn a small commission on qualifying purchases made through our Amazon and Audible links.
- Audible Affiliate Program — we earn a referral fee when readers sign up for an Audible membership through our links.
What this means in practice
When you click an affiliate link on this site and complete a purchase or sign-up on Amazon or Audible, we receive a small commission. The price you pay is exactly the same as if you had visited Amazon or Audible directly.
Affiliate links are typically marked with rel="sponsored" in the HTML, in line with Google's guidelines for transparent linking.
How we keep reviews honest
- We listen to every audiobook we review in full.
- We do not accept gifts, free copies, or paid placements from publishers.
- We do not preferentially link to books with higher commission rates.
- When we list a book as an "Editor's Pick," it reflects editorial judgment, not commercial agreement.
If you have any concerns about a specific review or recommendation, please contact us at hello@readiolist.com.
