Affiliate Disclosure

How We Earn Money

Bitcoin.diy is reader-supported. Some of the links on our site are affiliate links. This means if you click on a link and make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.

Our Promise to You

Affiliate relationships never influence our reviews, ratings, or recommendations. Our editorial process is independent of our revenue model. Here's what that means in practice:

• We buy our own products for testing whenever possible
• We list genuine pros AND cons for every product — minimum three of each
• If a product is bad, we say so, even if they pay generous commissions
• If a product is great but has no affiliate program, we still recommend it
• We never publish sponsored content disguised as editorial
• Our ratings are based on testing and research, not commission rates

How Affiliate Links Work

When you click an affiliate link on Bitcoin.diy, you're redirected to the product's website. If you make a purchase (or sign up, in some cases), the company pays us a referral fee. This fee comes from their marketing budget — it doesn't increase the price you pay.

Affiliate links on Bitcoin.diy use our /go/ redirect system and always include the following HTML attributes for transparency:

• rel="nofollow noopener sponsored"
• target="_blank"

Types of Affiliate Programs

We participate in affiliate programs from companies whose products we genuinely recommend. These include:

• Hardware wallet manufacturers — Coldcard, Trezor, Ledger, Foundation Devices
• Bitcoin exchanges — Swan Bitcoin, River, Strike
• Bitcoin credit/debit cards — Fold and others
• Software and tools — Tax software, security tools
