The Federal Trade Commission FTC requires a disclosure statement within any and all pages, blog/posts or social media posts where affiliate links are utilized in an endorsement or review, and where it isn’t clear that the link is a paid advertisement. Affiliate’s disclosure statements may be clear and concise and state that they are compensated if the user makes a purchase order. E. g. “This post contains affiliate links and I may be compensated if you make a purchase order after clicking on my links.
