Affiliate Disclosure

Effective date: October 27, 2026

Owned Income is a digital publication operated by Northstack Media LLC.

Some links on Owned Income may be affiliate links.

If you click an affiliate link and purchase a product, begin a subscription, register for a service, or complete another qualifying action, Northstack Media LLC may receive a commission or other compensation.

Using an affiliate link ordinarily does not change the price you pay. Pricing, fees, eligibility requirements, subscription terms, and transaction conditions are controlled by the applicable provider.

Why Owned Income uses affiliate links

Affiliate revenue can help support:

  • Website hosting and technical services
  • Research and editorial work
  • Content maintenance and updates
  • Publishing expenses
  • Software and business services
  • Continued operation of Owned Income

An affiliate relationship does not guarantee favorable coverage, inclusion in an article, a particular rating, ranking, or recommendation.

Editorial independence

When discussing products and services, Owned Income aims to consider factors relevant to creating and operating income-producing assets, potentially including:

  • Features
  • Intended use
  • Pricing
  • Fees
  • Subscription requirements
  • Integrations
  • Data portability
  • Platform dependency
  • Ease of operation
  • Limitations
  • Provider documentation

We do not claim firsthand product use, business results, or testing unless the applicable article expressly states that such experience occurred.

When content relies upon provider documentation, published specifications, research, demonstrations, or other sources rather than direct testing, we aim not to characterize that information as firsthand experience.

Material relationships

Owned Income may receive:

  • Affiliate commissions
  • Referral fees
  • Free or discounted software
  • Trial accounts
  • Product demonstrations
  • Sponsorship payments
  • Other benefits from companies mentioned on the website

When a material relationship applies to an endorsement or recommendation, we intend to disclose it clearly and close to the relevant content.

Affiliate disclosures within articles

This page explains Owned Income’s general affiliate practices. It does not replace appropriate disclosures within individual articles.

Articles containing affiliate links should include an appropriate disclosure near the beginning or close to the relevant affiliate recommendation.

Owned Income may use:
