How Kitchen Finds Under $30 earns money — stated plainly.

Last updated: May 23, 2026

We believe you should know exactly how this site makes money, because that transparency is part of trusting our recommendations. Here it is, in plain terms.

Affiliate links

Kitchen Finds Under $30 contains affiliate links. When you click one of these links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission — at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or not.

Amazon Associates

As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Kitchen Finds Under $30 is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com.

Advertising

In addition to affiliate links, we display advertising through Google AdSense. This helps cover the cost of researching, writing, and hosting the site. Advertising revenue does not influence which products we recommend.

How this affects our recommendations: it doesn’t

This is the part that matters most. Our recommendations are made independently of any commission. Specifically:

  • We do not rank products by commission. What goes on a list, and in what order, is decided by our research and our $30 standard — never by what pays us more.
  • We recommend products first, then add links. The recommendation comes from the research. The affiliate link is added afterward, to a product we already chose.
  • We are not paid for placement. We do not accept payment, free product, or any incentive in exchange for a recommendation, ranking, or review.

Why we disclose this

Disclosing affiliate relationships is required by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, and it is also simply the honest thing to do. We would tell you anyway. If you ever feel a recommendation seems driven by anything other than genuine merit, we want to hear about it.
