Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: February 2026
The Option Stack participates in affiliate marketing programs with brokerage platforms and financial services. When you click certain links on our site and open an account or complete a qualifying action, we may receive a referral fee from the broker — at no additional cost to you.
How It Works
When you click a "Open Account," "Visit Broker," or similar link and complete a qualifying action (such as opening and funding a brokerage account), we may receive a referral commission. These fees support our independent editorial operation.
Our Independence Guarantee
Affiliate compensation does not influence our broker ratings, rankings, or editorial content. Our evaluation rubric is applied consistently to all brokers. A broker that pays us a higher commission does not receive a higher rating as a result.
We have published negative assessments of brokers with whom we have affiliate relationships. If a platform has meaningful shortcomings, we disclose them fully — our readers' interests come first.
FTC Compliance
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 C.F.R. Part 255), we disclose affiliate relationships prominently on pages where such links appear via our Advertiser Disclosure notice.
Brokers We May Have Relationships With
We may have affiliate or referral relationships with: Tastytrade, Webull, moomoo, Interactive Brokers, Robinhood, Fidelity, Charles Schwab, and M1 Finance. This list may change over time as we add or discontinue partnerships.
Not Financial Advice
Nothing on this site constitutes financial or investment advice. All content is for informational purposes only. Trading options involves significant risk of loss.
