How GiftPilot makes money.

Affiliate links

Some of the retailer links on GiftPilot are affiliate links. If you buy something through one of them, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This helps us keep the site free.

Sponsored placements

Some gifts are sponsored by brand partners. We label these clearly with a Sponsored tag. Sponsored items are filtered through the same matching logic as everything else — they only appear when they're actually a good fit for your answers.

Editorial independence

Recommendations are matched to your answers first. Sponsorship influences which brands we work with — never which gifts win when they don't fit. If we wouldn't recommend it to a friend, we won't put it in front of you.

No checkout, no data hoarding

We don't process payments and we don't require accounts. We don't sell your data. If you give us your email for reminders, that's the only thing we use it for.
