Affiliate Disclosure

Updated 2026-09-30 PT. Sendbench Journal may earn commissions from qualifying purchases made through affiliate links on this site.

What is live now

• Make — Live affiliate links appear on When Native ESP Automations Aren't Enough: Make Scenarios for Creator Email Ops and the recipe companion Webhook → Filter → Kit Tag. Those links use our first-party /go/make route (then Make affiliate code sendbench). If you register and purchase a qualifying Make subscription through those links, we may earn a commission under Make’s marketing affiliate program.
• Kit — Live affiliate links appear on the Kit stay-vs-switch guide (Should you migrate to Kit?) and the Kit migration guides: Mailchimp → Kit, Beehiiv → Kit, and Kit Migration Checklist. Those links use our first-party /go/kit route (PartnerStack → Kit). If you sign up or purchase a qualifying Kit subscription through those links, we may earn a commission under Kit’s PartnerStack affiliate program.
• Sender — Live affiliate links appear on the home page, the Make scenarios guide (adjacent ESP options section), and the hire-help guide (related-tools section). Those links use our first-party /go/sender route. If you sign up or purchase a qualifying Sender subscription through those links, we may earn a commission under Sender’s PartnerStack affiliate program (commonly described as a percentage of referred customer payments on a recurring basis for a defined cookie window — see Sender’s current materials; we do not invent rates beyond what we disclose here).
• Buttondown — Live affiliate links appear on the home page, the Make scenarios guide (adjacent options), and the hire-help guide. Those links use our first-party /go/buttondown route. If you sign up or purchase a qualifying Buttondown subscription through those links, we may earn a commission under Buttondown’s referral program (commonly described as a share of referred customer payments; referred users may also receive a first-month discount — see Buttondown’s current materials).
• Skool — Live affiliate links appear on the home page in a creator community card, plus adjacent sections on the Make scenarios and hire-help guides (always labeled not-an-ESP). Those links use our first-party /go/skool route. If you sign up or create a qualifying Skool community through those links, we may earn a commission under Skool’s platform affiliate program (commonly described as a percentage of referred creator payments — see Skool’s current materials; we do not invent rates beyond what we disclose here). Skool is not an email service provider and is not conflated with Make or Kit on this site.
• Fiverr — Live affiliate links appear on the home page (freelance marketplace card — not an ESP) and the hire-help guide marketplace section. Those links use our first-party /go/fiverr route to Fiverr Marketplace only (not Pro / Logo Maker / sub-affiliate brands on v1). If you make a qualifying first purchase through those links, we may earn a commission under Fiverr’s affiliate program (portal materials commonly describe Marketplace as a percentage of first purchase with a cap, then ongoing share — see Fiverr’s current affiliate materials and our disclosure; we do not invent rates beyond portal-verified notes). Fiverr is a hire marketplace and is not conflated with Make, Kit, Sender, Buttondown, or Skool.
• Pabbly — Live affiliate links appear on the home page (automation / Make-alternative card — not an ESP) and the Make scenarios guide (automation alternatives section). Those links use our first-party /go/pabbly route to Pabbly Connect Recurring only on v1 (homepage / signup / agency / plus / one-time / Black Friday portal links are not minted). If you purchase a qualifying Pabbly Connect recurring subscription through those links, we may earn a commission under Pabbly’s affiliate program (public TOS commonly describes recurring commission terms — see Pabbly’s current materials; we do not invent rates beyond what we disclose here). Pabbly Connect is an automation tool and is not conflated with Kit, Sender, Buttondown, Skool, or Fiverr.

What is not live

• GetResponse, HubSpot, Moosend, HighLevel, n8n, and other offers — No live Dist affiliate CTAs unless and until separately authorized with a real tracking URL.
• Pabbly secondary portal links — Homepage, free signup, agency, Plus, one-time, Black Friday, and other non–Connect-Recurring affurls are not live on v1 (Connect Recurring only).
• Kit paid ads — No Kit paid ads launched from this disclosure update (organic CTAs only).

Material connection

Commercial articles that include affiliate links carry an above-the-fold disclosure block in addition to this page. Compensation does not buy a guaranteed recommendation. We aim to separate first-hand observation from documentation-based claims and to avoid fabricated social proof.

How we mark links

Affiliate links are identifiable in context (disclosure language near the recommendation and/or rel="sponsored" on the anchor). Public CTAs use first-party /go/… routes rather than raw network URLs. Official documentation URLs (for example help centers and public pricing pages) are generally left as non-affiliate cites unless explicitly labeled otherwise.
