Affiliate Disclosure
Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: April 2026
The Short Version
When you click a link on Two Average Gamers and buy something, we sometimes earn a small commission. It doesn’t cost you anything extra. That’s the whole deal.
We don’t take money to write positive reviews. Nobody pays us to recommend a game, a headset, or a handheld. If it’s on our site, we put it there because we actually think it’s worth your time and money.
The FTC-Required Version
Two Average Gamers (twoaveragegamers.com) is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.
We may also participate in affiliate programs with other retailers such as Best Buy, Newegg, Humble Bundle, Green Man Gaming, Fanatical, and direct brand programs (e.g., 8BitDo). When you click an affiliate link on our site and make a purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.
How We Choose What to Recommend
- We buy our own games. We don’t take review copies in exchange for coverage. Our opinions are ours.
- We test what we recommend. If we’re telling you a headset or handheld is good, we’ve either used it ourselves or done genuine research , including the negative reviews.
- Rankings are editorial, not paid. A brand paying us does not move them up any list.
- We disclose everything. Every article with affiliate links displays a banner at the top.
What’s NOT Affiliate Content
News coverage, game reviews, opinion pieces, and the vast majority of our editorial content contains no affiliate links. Affiliate links are concentrated in buyer’s guides and product roundups where readers are actively looking for purchase recommendations.
Display Ads
We also display ads on our site through Mediavine. These are programmatic display ads , we don’t choose which ads appear, and advertisers have no influence over our editorial content. Ads support the site so we can keep our content free and never behind a paywall.
