Affiliate Disclosure Templates Library

Ready-to-adapt disclosure statements for blogs, social, video, email, podcasts, and comparison sites — using wording regulators have endorsed.

A library of disclosure statements you can adapt to your voice and platform. These reflect the wording regulators have endorsed. Adjust the phrasing, but keep three things intact: name the compensation, use plain language, and place it where the audience sees it before acting. For UK/EU audiences, prefer the versions using the explicit word “Ad” or “advertisement.”

Adapt, do not just paste

Copy that matches your genuine relationship is more credible and more defensible. If you were gifted a product rather than paid a commission, say that. Accuracy is part of compliance.
