What are the FTC guidelines on disclosure of affiliate links?

Wherever you post a MagicLink, you must clearly disclose that it is an affiliate link. A note posted in a clear, conspicuous place with your links that says something like, “FTC disclosure: This post or video contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission for purchases made through my links” usually suffices as a disclaimer.

MagicLinks recommends that you share with your audience that you use affiliate links and may earn income when users click on or purchase from links you provide as a service. Please familiarize yourself with the full FTC guidelines: 

A note posted in a clear, conspicuous place with your links that says something like, "FTC disclosure: This post or video contains affiliate links, which means I may receive a commission for purchases made through my links" usually suffices as a disclaimer.

When posting links on YouTube videos, include the disclaimer in the description box with your links. For Instagram and X, you can include the verbiage in your X bio. On blog posts, add the disclaimer to the bottom of the blog post the links are in.
