How to disclose that you earn
Telling your audience that you earn commission is required, and it builds trust. Put the disclosure where people see it before they tap — not hidden in a wall of hashtags.
Say it plainly
- Posts and captions: start or end with #ad and a plain sentence, for example “I earn a commission if you buy through my link.”
- Videos and live streams: say it out loud, and show it on screen when you mention the product.
- WhatsApp and direct messages: include the sentence in the message itself.
- Your bio page already carries a disclosure at the bottom.
Keep claims true
- Only describe what you know to be true about the product.
- Never promise results — income, profits, marks, savings or delivery times.
- No invented discounts, countdowns or “today only” prices.
- Each brand's page lists what it specifically asks you to avoid.
