Why it matters

A compliant disclosure protects your income and your Amazon account

If you earn from affiliate links, a clear disclosure isn’t optional. The FTC requires you to tell readers when links can pay you, and Amazon’s Operating Agreement specifically requires the “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases” statement. Get it wrong and you risk FTC action, or worse for most publishers, having your Amazon account shut down.

This generator writes a compliant disclosure in seconds. Enter your site name, pick a length, and note whether you use other affiliate programs, and it produces clean, plain-language text you can drop above your content and onto a dedicated disclosure page. It’s guidance to get you compliant fast, not legal advice.

Tips & insights

  • Put it before the first affiliate link, not just in the footer. Readers should see it before they click, which is what “clear and conspicuous” means to the FTC.
  • Use Amazon’s exact wording. The phrase “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases” is required, so don’t paraphrase it away.
  • Add a dedicated disclosure page and link to it site-wide, in addition to the per-page notice.
  • Cover every channel. If you share affiliate links on YouTube, email or social, each one needs its own disclosure too.
  • Keep it plain. A short, honest sentence in your own voice beats dense legalese, and it’s what regulators actually want.

Frequently asked questions

Is an affiliate disclosure legally required?
In the US, the FTC requires you to disclose material connections, including affiliate links that can earn you money. Amazon separately requires its specific statement. Most other regions have similar rules.
Where should the disclosure go?
Somewhere readers see before they act on your links, typically near the top of the post, plus a dedicated disclosure page linked from your footer. A footer-only line is generally not considered clear and conspicuous.
Does Amazon require specific wording?
Yes. The Associates Operating Agreement requires the statement “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases” (or the current approved wording). This tool includes it for you.
Do I need a disclosure on every post?
On every page that contains affiliate links, yes. A single policy page alone doesn’t cover an individual article a reader lands on directly.
What about YouTube, email or social posts?
Each channel needs its own disclosure where the links appear, since a reader may never see your website’s page. Keep a short version handy for captions and descriptions.
Is this legal advice?
No. This tool produces a practical, commonly-used disclosure to help you get compliant quickly, but it isn’t legal advice. If you have specific concerns, consult a qualified professional.
