Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: October 1, 2026
How we make money: read this first
We rank every vendor on the same public, reproducible methodology, and we earn a commission from purchases made through some of our links. Ranking is never for sale, and no vendor wins every category.
FTC Disclosure Statement
BodyHackGuide participates in affiliate marketing programs. Some links on this site are affiliate or partner links, meaning we may earn a commission when you purchase through them, at no additional cost to you. This disclosure is written to follow 16 CFR Part 255 (FTC Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising).
BodyHackGuide is a free platform. We don't charge for comparison tools, calculators, guides, or educational content. Here's exactly how we sustain the project:
1. Vendor Affiliate Links
Some "Buy" buttons on compound listings, comparison tables and vendor hubs are affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission.
Vendors whose links can pay us a commission:
- ResearchChemHQ (researchchemhq.co): research peptides and compounds
- Optimum Formula (optimumformula.co): research peptides and compounds
- Disguised Alpha (disguisedalpha.com): research peptides, research pens, capsules and aerosols; listed below BHG Labs, and only on compounds BHG Labs does not sell in any form
- VANDL Labs (vandl-labs.com): research peptides and compounds
- Ion Peptide (ionpeptide.com): research peptides and bioregulators
- BioMyst Labs (biomystlabs.com): research peptides
- Limitless Biochem EU (limitlessbiochem.com): research peptides
All affiliate links use rel="sponsored" per Google's webmaster guidelines.
- Commissions are paid by the vendor: you never pay extra
- We list vendors that meet our quality standards, not just those with affiliate programs
- Every Trust Score comes out of the same published rubric: you can reproduce any vendor's score from the same public criteria
2. Bloodwork Partner (Anabolic Insights)
We partner with Anabolic Insights (anabolicinsights.ai) for bloodwork panels and may earn a referral fee when users order lab work through our links. The discount code CHONCH we share lowers your price and also tags the order as a referral. All Anabolic Insights links on this site use rel="sponsored".
3. Vendor Display Priority
We set a priority order for vendors. It decides who is shown first in featured spots: the price block at the top of a compound page, the default Featured order of a compound's price table, and the vendor directory. One vendor can be pinned to the top of that order for a compound.
- On a compound page you can re-sort the price table by price, price per mg or vendor name. Those sorts ignore the priority order
- The compare page opens in order of page views, or in the sort you last chose. Its A-Z, Price and Newest sorts are plain sorts
- The price list opens sorted by price per mg, lowest first, with no priority order
- A label such as "Lowest price per mg" or "Best Price" only goes on a listing that really is the lowest among the listings in stock (or among all of them when none is in stock). In the price blocks, a vendor put first for any other reason is labelled "Featured"
- Our Trust Score is calculated from published, objective criteria (COA verification, payment transparency, community reviews, shipping coverage, active listings)
- The same rubric scores every vendor, with no exceptions: the full rubric is published and reproducible, so any score can be checked against the same public criteria
4. Coupon Codes & Deals
We display coupon codes and deals from vendors on our Deals page and in comparison tables. Some are affiliate-tracked codes: we may earn a commission when they are used, and they typically also lower your price.
5. Coaching
The independent coaches in our coaches directory set their own rates and are paid directly by their clients. BodyHackGuide takes no percentage and no platform fee on coaching. Product links inside a coach's protocols can be affiliate links.
Our own 1-on-1 coaching is not open yet. That page is a waitlist. It is planned as a paid service, and this page will say so when it opens.
Coaching is educational in nature and does not constitute medical advice.
6. Vendor Dashboard Plans
Vendors can pay for extra tools in their own dashboard (the Pro and Growth plans on our vendor page): click reports and faster review moderation. A paid plan does not change a vendor's Trust Score, its ranking or its listings. The Trust Score badge itself is free.
What We Don't Do
To maintain trust, here's what we will never do:
- Sell your data: we don't sell, trade, or rent personal information (see our Privacy Policy)
- Add hidden markups: prices shown are the actual vendor prices
- Accept pay-for-play reviews: community ratings are from real users, and Trust Scores are formula-driven
- Charge for the tools: the calculators and price comparisons are free and need no signup
- Promote unsafe vendors: we evaluate vendors on objective criteria and remove those that don't meet standards
- Sell ad space: no ad networks and no paid banner placements
- Hide a commercial relationship: every vendor whose links can pay us a commission is named on this page
Our Commitment
Affiliate revenue is what keeps the tools and guides free.
Some vendors pay us a commission and some pay nothing. You can check any Trust Score against the published rubric, and any price against the price list, which opens sorted by price per mg.
If you have questions about our affiliate relationships or want to report a concern, reach out through our Discord community or via email at support@bodyhackguide.co.
