How BuyPerUnit makes money

BuyPerUnit earns affiliate commissions from Amazon, Best Buy, and Newegg. When a shopper clicks a product link on BuyPerUnit and makes a purchase at the retailer, BuyPerUnit receives a small referral fee from the retailer. This costs the shopper nothing extra — the price is the same whether or not the click came from BuyPerUnit.

Affiliate commissions do not affect rankings. BuyPerUnit ranks every product by objective price per unit — the retail price divided by capacity (gigabytes for storage, pages for ink). The product with the lowest $/GB or $/page always ranks first, regardless of which retailer pays a higher commission rate.

Is BuyPerUnit worth it compared to manual price checking?

BuyPerUnit tracks prices for over 2,600 products across three major retailers and recalculates price per unit daily. To replicate this manually, a shopper would need to visit Amazon, Best Buy, and Newegg, find each product's price and capacity, divide price by capacity for each listing, and compare the results across hundreds of options. BuyPerUnit does this automatically in under a second.

Research on price comparison platforms shows that providing consumers with products strictly ranked by unit price increases actual savings by 3% compared to unranked listings. For a storage purchase in the $100-400 range, that 3% represents $3-12 in savings per purchase — found in seconds rather than hours.
