RecipePlot is free to read. It is paid for by advertising and, on some pages, by commissions on products bought through its links. This page explains both, and what neither one buys.

## How the site is funded

| Source | How it works | What it cannot buy |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Display advertising | Ad networks place ads on pages. RecipePlot does not choose individual ads. | Any mention, ingredient choice or answer |
| Affiliate links | If you buy through some product links, the site may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. | A recommendation, or a product's place in a list |

## Amazon Associates

As an Amazon Associate, RecipePlot earns from qualifying purchases.

## What stays true either way

- A recipe calls for the ingredient or tool that suits the dish, whether or not a link pays.

- Generic ingredients are named generically unless a specific product actually matters to the result.

- No brand pays to be included, and no review is written in exchange for a free product.
