How we make money
Last updated: 9 November 2026
Cashley is free to use. You don't need an account, and we never charge you anything.
Commissions from stores
When you click through to a store and buy something, the store or its affiliate program may pay us a commission. You pay the same price either way. Links that can earn us money are marked sponsored for search engines.
- Amazon: As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
- Stores found through Channel3: Channel3 is a product search and affiliate service that connects us with thousands of online stores. When you buy through one of these links, the store may pay a commission, which Channel3 shares with us.
- Stores in Shopify's catalog: many products come from independent stores listed in Shopify's product catalog. Today most of these links do not earn us anything.
How products are chosen and ordered
- The assistant searches stores using only what you tell it: the item, who it's for, your budget and the things you liked or didn't like.
- Neither the assistant nor the order of results uses commission rates: the assistant does not know which products or stores pay us, or how much. It picks a few products that fit what you asked for and marks them Our pick. These appear first.
- The rest follow in the order the catalogs return them, taking from Shopify's catalog and Channel3 in turn. When the same product is sold by several stores, it is shown once with every store's price, cheapest first. When Amazon results are available, up to four appear before the other stores in each row.
- We hide offers we can't stand behind: items that are out of stock or don't ship to the US, prices in another currency, and prices far below every similar result (often a listing error).
- No store pays us to appear or to rank higher. If we ever add paid placements, they will be labelled Sponsored.
Prices
Prices, stock and shipping are set by each store and can change at any time. We show the store's price as we received it and never change it. Always check the final price on the store's page before you buy.
