Systeme.io and HighLevel are active affiliate relationships.
As of August 19, 2026, clearly labeled Systeme.io and HighLevel links published on Plain Gist contain affiliate tracking identifiers. Other vendor links remain direct and untracked unless a nearby disclosure states otherwise.
The current HighLevel AI Employee campaign may pay Plain Gist a 40% commission only on qualifying Unlimited activations; Pay-Per-Use and Growth do not qualify under that campaign. We disclose that difference because it creates a financial incentive that readers should see.
A disclosure appears before the first active commercial link on each affected article and inside the decision worksheet results.
A qualifying account or subscription may generate a commission.
If you click a clearly disclosed affiliate link and create an eligible account or complete an eligible subscription, the merchant may pay Plain Gist a commission. This should not increase the price you pay. Merchants control attribution windows, eligibility, reversals, and payout terms, which can change.
Affiliate links use a short Plain Gist redirect to count the outbound click before opening the vendor. The internal record is limited to a random click ID, time, offer, Plain Gist source page, destination domain, and campaign label. See the privacy policy for the exact data boundary.
Commission is not a scoring factor.
Products are ranked by reader fit, price and upgrade economics, adoption, capability, and risk. A product may be recommended without an affiliate relationship. A high-paying product may be ranked lower or omitted when it is not a good fit.
Sponsored placement, free product access, or any other material connection will be labeled separately and close to the claim it could influence.
Commercial links are qualified and disclosed.
Active affiliate links are marked in the page copy and coded with appropriate commercial-link attributes. A general disclosure page alone does not replace the notice readers should see near a recommendation.
The editorial standard follows the FTC principle that material connections should be clear, conspicuous, and difficult to miss.
