Introduction

This Affiliate Disclosure ("Disclosure") is provided by Ugenie AI Limited (trading as "Ugenie"), registered at Bartle House, 9 Oxford Court, Manchester, M2 3WQ, United Kingdom. This Disclosure explains how we use affiliate links on our platform and how we earn commissions through our Visual Matching Attribution™ technology.

What Are Affiliate Links?

Affiliate links are special URLs that contain a unique identifier for our platform. When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase from the destination website, Ugenie.ai may earn a commission from that purchase at no additional cost to you.

Our Affiliate Relationships

Ugenie participates in various affiliate marketing programmes, including but not limited to:

  • Commission Junction (CJ Affiliate)

  • Rakuten Advertising

  • Amazon Associates Programme

  • Awin

  • Impact

  • ShareASale

  • eBay Partner Network

  • And other affiliate networks or direct brand partnerships

Through these programmes, we may earn commissions when users discover products through our Visual Matching Attribution™ technology and subsequently make purchases.

How Our Visual Matching Attribution™ Technology Works

When you upload a screenshot or image to Ugenie on send a DM to our Instagram handle:

  1. Our technology identifies products within the image

  2. We provide shopping options for those products or similar alternatives

  3. When you click through to a retailer and make a purchase, we may earn a commission

  4. A portion of that commission may be shared with the original content creator whose post inspired the purchase

FTC Compliance Statement

In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising, as well as similar regulations from the UK's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) and other applicable laws, we want to be clear that:

Material Connection:

Ugenie has financial relationships with some of the merchants mentioned on our platform. We may be compensated when you click on links to those merchants and/or when you make purchases after clicking those links.

Honesty in Recommendations:

Despite these relationships, we strive to provide unbiased product matching based solely on visual similarity and product availability, not on commission rates or financial incentives.

Compensation Disclosure:

We want you to know that when you use our service to find and purchase products, we may receive compensation from the retailers or brands you ultimately purchase from.

Commission Sharing with Content Creators

A unique aspect of Ugenie is our commission-sharing model with content creators:

  • When you purchase a product discovered through a screenshot of a creator's content, that creator may receive a portion of our affiliate commission

  • This system helps fairly compensate creators whose content influences purchase decisions

  • All commission sharing is handled transparently and in accordance with our agreements with creators

How This Affects You

Please understand that:

  • You will never pay more for a product purchased through our affiliate links

  • Our use of affiliate links does not influence our product matching algorithm

  • The primary goal of our service is to help you find products you're interested in, regardless of our affiliate relationships

  • When exact product matches aren't available, we may suggest similar alternatives that may or may not generate affiliate commissions

Changes to This Disclosure

We may update this Affiliate Disclosure from time to time to reflect changes in our business practices or regulatory requirements. The most current version will always be posted on our website with the "Last Updated" date.
