I get commissions for purchases made through links in this site. That does not change the price you pay. SleepBetterHQ is owned by Richard, owner of Mattress Stop (Los Angeles). This is not an independent review site.
Affiliate relationships
When we link to a product and you buy it, we may earn a commission from the brand or from a network such as Amazon Associates, Impact, Awin, CJ, FlexOffers, or a brand’s direct program (for example, Coop Sleep Goods). Commission rates change; we verify live rates inside each dashboard before relying on them.
FTC guidance: a vague “affiliate link” label alone is not enough. We put a clear commission statement near recommendations and links. Platform tools (#ad, paid partnership) may also be used on Pinterest or YouTube, but we will still say the disclosure in plain language.
Ownership (Mattress Stop)
Richard owns Mattress Stop, an LA mattress retailer, and also owns SleepBetterHQ. Mattress Stop may sell some of the same accessory categories we write about. That relationship is a selling point for retail experience — and a conflict we disclose, not hide. We never claim the site is independent.
Free products
If a brand sends a free product for review, we will say so in that article. Until then, treat drafts as unpaid research outlines awaiting Richard’s notes.
Amazon Associates
If and when we join Amazon Associates: “As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.” We will apply only once traffic makes Amazon’s qualifying-sales policy realistic.
Placeholder links on this draft site
Links marked [AFFILIATE LINK] are placeholders. They are not live tracking links yet. Do not treat them as buy buttons.
