How we rank

We're affiliate-funded

FMTS earns a commission when you buy through our links. Prices are the same for you either way.

The rule

Commission never influences ranking or tiebreaks. Not the order of results, not which product sits on top.

How ranking works

Results are ranked from your inputs. Guided answers and use-case picks are preferences — they float matching products up, but they never remove anything from the list. Only filters you explicitly set can exclude a product.

How ties break

When two products match your picks equally, we order by (1) whether we've reviewed or tested it firsthand, then (2) the best price you can actually get, discount codes included. Commission is never a sort key.

What “Reviewed” means

We've tested it firsthand. It's a provenance marker, not a ranking boost — a Reviewed product can sit mid-list.

Every ranking explains itself

Results carry a “you told us → so we prioritized” summary, and every input is a removable chip.
