Affiliate Disclosure & Monetization Policy
ChargeTier is committed to full commercial transparency with our readers. Below is an overview of how our technical calculators and reference guides are funded.
1. FTC Compliance & Disclosure Statement
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) 16 CFR, Part 255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising," we inform our readers that ChargeTier contains outbound affiliate merchant links.
When you click an affiliate link on this Website and complete a purchase for an EV charger, transfer switch, generator interlock, or electrical wiring hardware, we may receive a referral commission from the merchant seller.
Zero Extra Cost to the Reader:
Using our affiliate links incurs ZERO additional cost to you. The purchase price you pay is identical whether you use our link or navigate to the merchant store directly.
2. Amazon Associates Program Disclosure Statement
ChargeTier is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated international Amazon marketplaces.
*Amazon and the Amazon logo are trademarks of Amazon.com, Inc. or its affiliates. As an Amazon Associate, ChargeTier earns from qualifying purchases.
3. Direct Manufacturer & Merchant Partnerships
In addition to the Amazon Associates Program, ChargeTier may link to direct manufacturer stores and electrical distributors, including:
- ChargePoint Store
- Emporia Energy
- Autel Energy
- Grizzl-E (United Chargers)
- Lectron EV
- Wallbox Chargers
4. Editorial Independence
Our affiliate relationships do not alter the manufacturer specifications, NEC 625.41 continuous-load sizing calculations, or conductor ampacity tables presented on ChargeTier:
- No Paid Placements in Calculations: Breaker sizing, wire gauge calculations, and vehicle onboard AC acceptance figures are computed directly from published NEC tables and automaker specification sheets.
- Safety & Code Standards First: We highlight NRTL certification (UL 2594 / ETL) and NEC continuous-duty requirements regardless of merchant commission rates.
5. Approximate Reference Price Disclaimer
Product prices, merchant stock availability, shipping rates, and promotional discounts change frequently across online retailers. All prices displayed on ChargeTier are approximate reference prices from public listings; the price displayed on the retailer's checkout page at the time of purchase governs.
