How ConsumerAffairs Works
We want to prevent one-star experiences for consumers and brands. Our business model is set up to support this
mission.
Our Business Model
Provide free resources
We spend hours researching companies, analyzing reviews, and building tools to make your decision process
surprisingly painless.
Encourage buyer engagement
We help brands collect reviews, respond to their customers, and generate insights from feedback. Brands that choose
to pay us for these tools are called Authorized Partners.
Assist your purchase
When you’re ready to purchase, we recommend an Authorized Partner(s) that meets your unique situation. We may
earn money when you connect with an Authorized Partner through our website.
We are a for-profit company. We are not a government agency or affiliated with any government organization. Our
website offers information for consumers such as news stories, reviews and ratings from consumers, buyers guides and
information on specific topics..
We offer our website for free to consumers. We make money with our Authorized Partner Program. We have
an authorized partner program for businesses who in turn pay us to participate. Those who participate are our
“Authorized Partners.”
We may earn money from certain businesses when you interact with them through our website (such as clicking a link
on our website, filling out a form on our website, or calling a number on our website to connect with them) and/or
when you make a purchase in connection with such interaction.
Here is a list of the partners we earn money from.
