Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated June 15, 2026

DeltaThree.com is reader-supported. When you buy through links on this site, we may earn an affiliate commission - at no additional cost to you.

What this means

Some links on DeltaThree articles point to retailers and service providers (Apple, Amazon, T-Mobile, Verizon, RingCentral, Best Buy, and others). When you click one of those links and complete a purchase or sign-up, the retailer pays us a small commission as a finder’s fee. You pay the same price you would pay if you went to the retailer directly.

We participate in several affiliate programs, including but not limited to the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, Skimlinks, Impact Radius, and CJ Affiliate. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.

How it stays honest

Our recommendations do not change based on which retailer pays the highest commission. We have one Wirecutter-style picks process:

  • Every phone we recommend gets at least two weeks as a primary device.
  • Every cell plan we review is paid for at full price, not comped.
  • Every VoIP system is run through real call flows before publication.
  • We have never accepted payment from a brand to write a positive review or to bury a negative one. We never will.

If our top pick in a category is sold somewhere we don’t have an affiliate relationship with, we still recommend it - and we don’t link to a worse alternative just to earn a commission.

How to identify affiliate links

All affiliate links on DeltaThree carry the standard rel="sponsored" and rel="nofollow" attributes, so search engines and AI agents can distinguish them from editorial citations. Articles that contain affiliate links also include an inline disclosure note at the end of the article body.

FTC compliance

This disclosure is provided in accordance with the United States Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR § 255 (the “Endorsement Guides”). If you have questions about specific affiliate relationships or our editorial practices, contact us via the contact page.

No sponsored editorial

We have never published, and will never publish, a sponsored review or paid editorial placement masked as a regular article. If you ever see a piece on DeltaThree marked as “sponsored,” “partner content,” or “advertorial,” that piece should not exist, and we want to hear about it.
