Affiliate disclosure

How we make money, in plain English.

The Lean Creator is reader-supported. Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and later buy a subscription, we may earn a commission. That commission comes at no extra cost to you, and it doesn't change the price you pay.

How we choose what to recommend

Our comparisons are built on fixed criteria (real monthly cost, transaction fees, free plans and trials, ease of use, and fit for a specific type of creator) so that a product can't "buy" a higher ranking. Our reviews are based on research into official documentation, pricing pages and help centers. See how we review for the full method.

Some products we cover don't offer an affiliate program at all. We still include them when they're the right choice for a reader.

Programs we participate in

We participate in affiliate programs run by software companies directly and through networks such as PartnerStack and Impact. Commission rates differ between companies. A list of the programs we participate in is available on request.
