Affiliate Disclosure

Complete transparency about how Lowpill makes money.

Last updated: 13 May 2026

1. How We Make Money

  • Commission from pharmacy referrals (3–10% depending on pharmacy).
  • No additional cost to you.
  • You pay the same price whether we refer you or not.
  • Commission doesn't affect rankings or recommendations.
  • Commission doesn't influence what we show you.
  • This is how we stay free for users.
  • Sustainable business model.
  • Transparent disclosure.

2. Partnership Transparency

Our affiliate partners and indicative commission ranges:

  • Tata 1mg — commission 5–8%.
  • PharmEasy — commission 7–10%.
  • Apollo Pharmacy — commission 3–5%.

  • CueLinks network — commission 5–10%.

Commission rates vary by:

  • Medicine category.
  • Partner's program.
  • Purchase amount.
  • Promotional periods.

Average commission is 5–7%. We earn when you purchase through our links. You get the same price; the pharmacy gets a customer; we get commission.
