We don’t accept payment for coverage unless specified as an advertisement or sponsored post, and our opinion and analysis are the product of our years of experience in product design. Most of our revenue is made through referral programs, which means that if you click on one of our product links, Matterful might receive a small commission at no cost to you. This helps support us, and allows us to keep providing videos, reviews and guides. Most of the time we work directly with small manufacturers who rely on influencers like Chase here at Matterful, and we love working these folks. We have relationships with so many of these indie manufacturers now, and they make such great products, that we're not incentivized one way or the other to recommend anything in particular to you... we stand to earn the most over time by being valuable to you, not any given manufacturers. If you’re dissatisfied with what we recommended and you return the product, we don’t see any money from it. Our continued financial success depends on making the best possible recommendations, and your satisfaction with the products we recommend.
