How TrendSwype makes money

Affiliate disclosure. Last updated 11 November 2026.

We want you to know exactly how TrendSwype is paid, so that you can judge what we show you. This page sets that out, as required by the Consumer Protection Act 2007 and the EU Unfair Commercial Practices Directive, and in line with the advertising codes of the ASAI (Ireland) and CAP (UK) and the US Federal Trade Commission's Endorsement Guides.

1. We earn a commission when you buy

When you buy a product through the TrendSwype app, the retailer pays TrendSwype a commission: a percentage of the price of your order. These commissions are paid through affiliate networks, which track sales and pass the payments to us. TrendSwype currently works with:

If we join other networks, we'll add them to this list.

You pay the same price. The commission comes out of the retailer's revenue. It doesn't change the price you pay, and you don't pay TrendSwype anything for buying through the app.

In the app, we tell you this when you sign up, and you can find this page at any time in Settings.

2. You buy from the retailer, not from TrendSwype

TrendSwype doesn't sell products. Each product page shows the retailer that sells it ("Sold by …"). When you tap Buy, the retailer's own checkout opens inside the app, and your contract of sale is with that retailer. The retailer takes your payment, sends your order, and is responsible for delivery, returns, refunds and your consumer rights for that purchase, under its own terms.

3. Subscriptions

TrendSwype also makes money from optional paid subscription plans in the app, which include extra try-ons and trend updates. The price of each plan is shown before you subscribe.

4. Paid placements and advertising

If a brand or retailer pays to have a product shown more prominently, or if we show advertising, it will be clearly labelled Sponsored or Ad. We never present paid placements as ordinary results.

5. How we decide what to show you

Trends. The trends you swipe through are chosen and ordered only by:

Commission never affects which trends you see or their order.

Shop suggestions and search. The order of products in Shop and in search results is mainly decided by how closely a product matches your search, your likes and the current trends, whether it can be delivered to your country, and its delivered price. The commission a retailer pays TrendSwype, and other commercial factors, may also influence the order.

Placements that a brand or creator has paid for directly are always labelled Sponsored or Ad.

6. Creators

When creators on TrendSwype earn money from the products they post, their posts will be labelled as advertising, as the law requires.
