Lotus Femcare earns commission through affiliate links, including the Amazon Associates Programme. Here is exactly how that works and how we keep it honest.
Lotus Femcare earns money through affiliate links. This page explains what that means.
Some links on this site take you to online shops such as Amazon or Nykaa. If you buy something after clicking one, we may receive a small commission from the retailer. You pay exactly the same price. The commission comes out of the retailer’s margin, not your pocket.
Lotus Femcare is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Programme, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.in and other Amazon marketplaces. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
We also take part in affiliate programmes run by other retailers and brands, either directly or through affiliate networks. Where a link is an affiliate link, it is disclosed on the page it appears on.
It does not.
We choose products based on formulation, performance in our testing and value for money. We recommend inexpensive products constantly, including ones that pay us very little. We tell readers when an entire product category is not worth buying. We publish negative reviews of products we could have earned from.
If commission determined our recommendations, this site would be worth nothing to you and it would stop being worth running.
We do not currently accept paid posts or sponsored reviews. If this ever changes, any such article will be clearly labelled as sponsored at the top, before the content begins, in line with ASCI guidelines.
If a brand sends us a product without charge, we disclose it at the top of the article. Receiving a product free does not guarantee coverage and does not affect our verdict.
Every article containing affiliate links carries a visible disclosure near the top, before the first link. This is in line with the Advertising Standards Council of India (ASCI) influencer advertising guidelines, the US Federal Trade Commission’s endorsement guides, and the UK Advertising Standards Authority’s rules on affiliate marketing.
