Heads up: The Vitality Desk is reader-funded. If you buy through links on this site we may earn a commission, and it never changes your price or our scoring. How this works.

Affiliate disclosure

Last updated June 2026. This page explains, in plain terms, how The Vitality Desk makes money and why that does not compromise our reviews.

How we earn

The Vitality Desk is reader-funded through affiliate partnerships. When we link to a manufacturer's official store, such as the official Vigor Rise website, those are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission from the manufacturer or its affiliate network. This commission comes out of the seller's margin, not your pocket. You pay exactly the same price whether you use our link or type the address in yourself.

Why it does not affect our reviews

A commission does not buy a good review, a higher score, or kinder wording. We decide our editorial scores using the same criteria for every product, described on our how we test page, regardless of whether an affiliate arrangement exists. We publish honest drawbacks, critical user reviews, and lower scores where they are deserved, even for products that earn us commissions. If a product is not worth your money, we say so.

FTC compliance

We follow the US Federal Trade Commission's guidance on endorsements and testimonials, including 16 CFR Part 255. That means our financial relationship is disclosed clearly and close to the links it relates to, not buried. You will see a short disclosure banner near the top of pages that contain affiliate links, a note beside each call-to-action button, and a full statement in our footer.

How our reviews are written

Our reviews combine a hands-on trial by a member of our team, a summary of large volumes of public customer feedback, and a check of the marketing claims against the published ingredient list and neutral sources. The community ratings, percentages and breakdowns we publish are an editorial summary presented in a readable form; they are not externally audited datasets, and we do not operate our own laboratory.

Not the manufacturer

The Vitality Desk is an independent review publication. We are not the official site of, and are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the manufacturer of Vigor Rise or any other product we review. Brand names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
