How Peptidings Makes Money
Affiliate Disclosure & Editorial Policy
Running a peptide research site that refuses to oversell the evidence turns out to be a lot of work. The primary literature doesn’t summarize itself, the community claims require constant auditing against what studies actually show, and a glossary of 115 terms doesn’t write itself on enthusiasm alone.
Peptidings is funded through affiliate marketing. When you use one of the links on this site to visit a partner service and make a purchase or subscribe, we earn a commission. That’s it. No advertising, no sponsored content, no investor with opinions about what we should and shouldn’t say about their portfolio companies.
We think that’s a fair trade. You get free access to the most evidence-honest peptide reference on the internet. We get to keep the lights on. The model only works if you trust us, which means we have a strong structural interest in not compromising the thing that makes us worth reading.
What Our Affiliate Relationships Do Not Do
This is the part that actually matters. The following rules are not aspirational — they are the operating policy:
- Affiliate partners are never named in the editorial body of compound articles. The mechanism section of an argireline article does not mention a skincare brand. The evidence table for semaglutide does not mention a weight loss clinic. Editorial content and commercial content are in different sections of the page, separated by a visible divider.
- Commercial relationships never influence evidence tier classifications. A compound is Pilot Data or Preclinical because the literature says so — not because a partner would prefer a more favorable characterization.
- If our research contradicts a partner’s marketing claims, we say so. If a partner says their product is “clinically proven” and our evidence review says the evidence base is limited, our article says the evidence base is limited. The affiliate link still appears in the resources section. The honest assessment still appears in the article.
- Coverage decisions are driven by research interest and reader demand, not by partner preferences. We cover the compounds the community is most asking about. Partners don’t get to request articles or steer editorial priorities.
