How Sauna & Slate makes money, in plain English.
As an Amazon Associate, Sauna & Slate earns from qualifying purchases. When you click one of our links and buy something, we may earn a commission — at no extra cost to you. You pay exactly the same price you would have anyway.
How our links work
Most product links on this site point to Amazon and carry our Amazon Associates tag. Some route through a /goredirect on our own domain first — that's just a tidy way for us to manage links and see which picks readers find useful; it doesn't change where you end up or what you pay. Every earning link is marked with rel="sponsored" and an #ad label, per Google and FTC guidance.
Prices come from Amazon, live
The prices we show are pulled from Amazon's API and stamped with the date we fetched them. They change constantly, so the price at Amazon checkout is always the one that counts. If our data is more than 48 hours old, we hide the number and show "Check price on Amazon" instead — we'd rather show nothing than a stale figure. See our methodology for the details.
Commissions never buy a ranking
This is the line that matters, so we'll say it plainly: a commission rate has never decided a placement on this site. Where a cheaper product that pays us less is the better buy, we rank it first and explain why — you'll see it happen throughout the reviews. Our full independence rules are in the editorial policy.
Brands we can't link
Some premium saunas (Sunlighten, Clearlight, Finnleo, SaunaSpace and others) sell direct or through dealers and aren't on Amazon. Where we mention them, we say so honestly and we earn nothing from that mention — we won't attach a fake buy button to a product you can't actually buy through us.
