How RightRig makes money

RightRig does not earn anything right now. There are no paid links on the site, no ads, and no paywall.

RightRig does not require signup to check a game. Saved rig details stay in your browser unless a future feature clearly says otherwise.

Eventually, RightRig will be supported by paid links, also called affiliate links. When we recommend a game or a hardware upgrade, the link to buy it may earn us a small commission if you choose to use it. It will not cost you more, and there will be no difference between what you would pay going direct.

When that starts, we will update this page to name the partners involved, and every paid link on the site will be clearly marked.

Commissions will not influence:

• which games we cover
• the FPS ranges we predict
• the settings we recommend
• the bottleneck we identify
• the upgrade advice we give

The scoring engine that produces predictions does not know which retailer pays the most. Retailer data is kept out of the prediction logic.

When paid links are live, they will only appear in two places:

• next to a game on its result page, after we have told you whether your PC can run it
• inside a bottleneck recommendation, when we are confident your hardware is the limit

If we do not have a confident recommendation, there will not be a link. We will not put paid links in the sidebar, in newsletters, or in “top picks” lists.

We will not link to key marketplaces or resellers unless we can verify that the retailer sources games through authorised publisher, platform, or distributor channels.

For RightRig, a higher commission is not enough. If a retailer's sourcing is unclear, we leave it out.

We sometimes link to Steam as a reference, so you can wishlist a game or check its store page. Steam does not have an affiliate program. Those links earn us nothing. They are there because they are useful.

None yet. This section will be updated when paid partners are approved.
