About Spooniehacker reviews

We never accept payment for reviews, and our testers always give their honest opinions and experiences, with the needs of chronically ill, disabled and neurodivergent people in mind.

Sometimes companies provide us with products and services for free in exchange for reviews, and we clearly state when this is the case. We may use affiliate links in our reviews, which help keep Spooniehacker going through small donations – these are always clearly marked. The addition of affiliate links never influences the content of our reviews.

We pay £10 for a short review (and you can of course keep the item). Get in touch if you’re interested in joining, telling us a bit about yourself and providing links to any online writing you’ve done (but previous experience isn’t essential).
