Affiliate disclosure

Some retailer links on 218toner.com are affiliate links. If you buy through one, we may earn a commission. The price you pay does not change, and commission never decides which offers we show or how we rank them.

As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.

How affiliate links work

With a marked affiliate link, a store may pay 218toner.com a commission when a visitor buys through that link. The price you pay does not change.

Our independence

• Commission rates do not decide which toner we recommend, which stores we show or in which order.
• We show options and stores that earn us nothing whenever they are useful.
• We do not write positive assessments in exchange for higher commission.
• Factual information (yield, compatibility, OEM codes) is separate from commercial modules.
• Featured compatible picks follow measurable rules only — see how picks are chosen.

Comparing and earning are two separate things

A store is in our comparison because it is useful to someone buying HP 218 toner: real stock, a verifiable price and an exact product page. Whether we can earn from a click is a separate question with a separate answer, stored in a separate field that the ranking code never reads.

Per store: which program, and is it live?

• HP Store — HP Store affiliate programme: not active — currently an ordinary link.
• Staples — no affiliate program: always an ordinary link.
• Best Buy — no affiliate program: always an ordinary link.
• Walmart — no affiliate program: always an ordinary link.
• Newegg — no affiliate program: always an ordinary link.

While a program or its configuration is not active, the link to that store stays an ordinary link to the product page: no tracking, no rel="sponsored", and nothing earned. The link works normally.

Amazon

Amazon links on this site are Amazon Associates links. After the click you buy from Amazon or from a seller on Amazon; we do not process the order or payment.

How to recognize a paid link

Active affiliate links carry rel="sponsored" and a visible "Paid link" label on the button, close to the link itself as the FTC's Endorsement Guides ask.
