Affiliate & Advertising Disclosure

Last Updated: August 19, 2026
FTC Compliance Summary

In compliance with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising, this disclosure details how YT Crew earns revenue through affiliate links, sponsored listings, and third-party partnerships.

1. Affiliate Links & Referral Commissions

Some of the links on YT Crew (including but not limited to our YouTube Automation Tools directory and educational blog guides) are affiliate links. This means that if you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase or subscribe to a paid service, YT Crew may earn a small referral commission at no additional cost to you. In many instances, our partnership links also provide exclusive discounts or extended free trials for our community.

2. Editorial Independence & Tool Curation

Our recommendations, tool listings, and software reviews are based strictly on practical value, performance, and utility for YouTube content creators. We test and evaluate tools independently, and commercial relationships never dictate whether a product is featured or positively reviewed. We only recommend third-party automation tools and platforms that we believe provide genuine value to digital video creators.

3. Our Free Native Tools Commitment

All 86+ native creator tools built directly into YT Crew (such as our Timestamp Generator, Thumbnail Resizers, Video Frame Inspector, and Comment utilities) are 100% free forever and do not require account registration or payment. Affiliate partnerships help support the ongoing hosting, development, and server maintenance required to keep these utilities free and fast for everyone.
