PadelGrade is free to read and carries no advertising. It is funded by affiliate commissions, and this page explains exactly how that works.
The short version
Some links on this site go to online retailers. If you buy after clicking one, the retailer pays us a small commission. You pay exactly the same price either way. We are never paid to give a racket a particular grade, and no manufacturer sees a review before it is published.
Amazon Associates
PadelGrade 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. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases. Our Amazon links carry the tracking identifier padelgrade-21.
Prices and availability on Amazon change constantly. Any price shown on this site is a typical street price range for orientation only — the accurate, current price is the one you see on Amazon when you follow the link.
How we keep the grade clean
- The score is locked before any link is added. Grading and monetisation are separate steps, in that order.
- Commission rate never influences placement. A racket that pays us nothing can and does outrank one that pays us well.
- We link to rackets we grade poorly. If the best answer for you is a racket we scored 6.1, the link still goes there.
- No paid placements, no sponsored grades, no gifted product. We do not accept product, payment or hospitality from manufacturers.
- Every affiliate link is disclosed at the top of the page it appears on, before you can click it, and marked up as sponsored.
What we do not do with your data
