Affiliate links
As of the publish date of this page, Appvella runs zero affiliate links. Every "Visit official site" button in the catalog links directly to the publisher's primary URL with no referral parameters and no monetisation on our side.
If we ever introduce affiliate links — for example, against a small number of paid commercial apps such as Microsoft 365, JetBrains tools, or Adobe Creative Cloud — we will:
- Mark the link visibly on the page concerned ("affiliate link").
- Update this disclosure with a dated entry.
- Note the change in the public changelog.
Sponsored placements
None. We do not accept payment to add an app to the catalog, to move it higher in any list, or to embellish its description. Editorial control sits exclusively with APPVELLA, LLC.
How Appvella stays free
Appvella is a small, low-cost site. Hosting (Cloudflare Pages), domain (Namecheap), and email (Microsoft 365 Business Basic) are paid out of the company's own funds. There is no advertising, no email-list monetisation, and no user accounts.
