How Many Cameras

Affiliate disclosure

How Many Cameras is free to use. Some links to stores are, or will become, affiliate links. If you buy after clicking one, the store may pay us a commission at no extra cost to you.

Which programs

We link to brand stores (for example eufy, Reolink, TP-Link Tapo, Wyze, Arlo, SwitchBot, Ultraloq, Yale and Lockly) and to Amazon. Some of these links earn commission only after the program approves us. Brands without affiliate programs, such as Ring, Google Nest, Blink, Schlage, Kwikset and Level, still appear wherever the math says they fit.

How we keep recommendations honest

  • Plans come from the planner's published math: coverage, power, Wi-Fi and 3-year cost. Commission rates are not an input.
  • We show subscription costs for every brand, including brands that pay us.
  • On device pages we list the brand's own store first: return policies are usually clearer, and it's often where a commission applies. Amazon is listed as an alternative.
  • Store links are marked rel="sponsored".
