Links that pay us
In shortSome "View on Amazon" links are affiliate links.
When a book page includes a "View on Amazon" link, that link may carry an RNKD affiliate tag. If you buy through it, Amazon pays RNKD a small commission. Every such link is marked rel="sponsored" and sits below the review, next to a disclosure.
What it costs you
In shortNothing extra.
The price you pay is the same whether you arrive through RNKD or not. Commissions come out of the retailer's side, not yours.
What it does not change
In shortNot the review, not the rating, not which books appear.
Reviewers do not know or care whether a book's link earns anything. No reviewer is paid based on sales. Ratings, recommendations, and Roundtable treatment are decided before commerce enters the picture, and no book is reviewed because it sells well.
What we don't take
In shortNo books, payment, or favors from authors or publishers.
RNKD does not accept review copies, payments, sponsorship, gifts, or incentives from anyone financially connected to a book. When RNKD itself buys a copy for a reviewer, the review says so on the page.
The required statement
In shortAmazon asks us to say this in these exact words.
