Peptide Vault is funded by affiliate commissions. When a page links to a product or service and you buy through that link, we may earn a percentage of the sale. You pay the same price either way.
That is the whole model. No sponsorships, no paid reviews, no advertiser relationships, no subscription.
## Why we tell you this so plainly
Affiliate revenue creates an obvious incentive to be generous about compounds that convert well. On a site about substances that are mostly unapproved for human use, giving in to that incentive would be worse than unhelpful. So the arrangement is stated up front, and the rules below exist to keep it from touching the content.
## The rules
Ratings are set before any commercial consideration. Evidence ratings come from the published research, using the criteria on how we rate evidence. There is no adjustment step where a rating gets revisited because of a partner relationship.
Rankings are ordered by evidence, not by commission. On our ranked guides, position one is the best-evidenced option for that goal. Sometimes that is a compound we earn nothing on, and sometimes the honest answer is that the top-ranked option still has thin human data. Both of those get published as written.
Limitations do not get softened. If a compound has no controlled human trials, sits on the FDA’s list of substances that cannot be legally compounded, or has safety signals worth knowing about, that appears on the page regardless of whether the page carries affiliate links.
We turn down paid placement. We do not sell rankings, reviews, mentions, or link insertions. Vendors who ask do not get a mention as a consolation.
We do not sell peptides. We are not a vendor, a pharmacy, or a reseller, and we have no inventory to move.
## What we do not earn from
Most of this site makes us nothing. The compound reviews for research chemicals with no legitimate consumer channel, the regulatory tracker, the guides on legality and injection technique, the pages that conclude a compound is not worth the risk: none of those have a product attached.
They exist because the site is only useful if it covers the whole picture, including the parts with nothing to sell.
## If you would rather not use our links
Nothing on this site is gated behind them. Search for the product directly and buy it wherever you like; the information here is the same. If you find the pages useful and want to support the work, using a link costs you nothing extra.
