# Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: November 11, 2026

GenZ Decoded is free to read. Here is how the site is paid, so you can weigh what you read.

## Amazon affiliate links

Some slang deep-dives link to the film, book, album or game a word came from. Those links are affiliate links. If you buy through one, GenZ Decoded may earn a commission, and your price stays the same.

As an Amazon Associate, GenZ Decoded earns from qualifying purchases.

Every affiliate link carries a short note directly above it, on the same page and in the same language as the page. The links start with genzdecoded.com/go/ and send you on to Amazon.

## What a commission does not change

Meanings, origins and examples are written the same way whether or not a product exists. A pick only appears when the word’s own history names the product, and no company pays to be included.

## Our own shop

The [GenZ Decoded shop](https://genzdecoded.com/shop/) sells our own shirts and hoodies. Money from a shop order goes to GenZ Decoded directly, and those links are not affiliate links.
