Honest Content. Transparent About How We Earn.
Ganjly has been covering the cannabis industry since 2016. We publish educational guides, state legal updates, product comparisons, and consumer resources. Some of the content we publish includes affiliate links. This page explains exactly what that means, how it works, and what it does and does not affect.
What Is an Affiliate Link?
An affiliate link is a specially tracked URL that tells a retailer or brand that a visitor came from Ganjly. If you click an affiliate link on our site and make a purchase, Ganjly may earn a small commission from that sale. The commission comes from the retailer, not from you. You pay exactly the same price you would pay if you went directly to the retailer’s website.
Our FTC Disclosure
In compliance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), Ganjly discloses material connections between our content and any brands or products we may earn compensation for recommending.
Specifically:
- Ganjly participates in affiliate programs including but not limited to Amazon Associates, Lazarus Naturals, Medterra, ShareASale cannabis brand programs, and other hemp and cannabis-adjacent affiliate networks.
- When an article contains affiliate links, a disclosure notice appears at the top of that article.
- This Affiliate Disclosure page serves as a sitewide disclosure applicable to all content on ganjly.com/.
What We Earn Affiliate Commissions On

- Resource pages linking to retailers, tools, or services
What Our Affiliate Relationships Do NOT Affect
This is the part that matters most to us.
Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial judgment. We do not write positive reviews in exchange for commissions. We do not include products in our content because a brand paid us to. We do not accept payment from brands in exchange for favorable editorial coverage without clear disclosure.
Products mentioned in our articles are selected based on editorial merit, reader relevance, and our genuine assessment of their quality. If we recommend something, it is because we believe it is worth recommending. If we identify a concern about a product or brand, we say so regardless of any affiliate relationship.
Our editorial standards are not for sale. Our opinions are our own.
Display Advertising
Ganjly displays advertisements served by Mantis ad network, a cannabis-focused advertising platform. These ads are served based on the content of our pages and your browsing behavior. Advertiser payments do not influence the editorial content on Ganjly. Advertisers do not review, approve, or have any input into our articles before publication.
Sponsored Content
Ganjly occasionally publishes sponsored content, meaning content for which we have received payment from a brand or organization. All sponsored content is clearly labeled as “Sponsored” or “Partner Content” at the top of the post. Sponsored content does not represent the editorial views of Ganjly and is written to the brand’s specifications with our editorial oversight.
We do not publish sponsored content that we believe is inaccurate, misleading, or harmful to our readers.
Product Reviews and Testing
Ganjly may occasionally receive products from brands for review purposes at no cost. When this occurs, it is disclosed in the review. Receiving a product for free does not guarantee a positive review. Our reviews reflect our honest assessment.
Amazon Associates Disclosure
Ganjly is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, Ganjly earns from qualifying purchases.
