Affiliate networks and platforms

The network decides how you get tracked, when you get paid and how much admin you carry. Compare payout terms, regional strength and program depth before you apply — most programs are only reachable through one of them.

Choosing a network

1
Follow the programs, not the platform

You do not choose a network in the abstract — you join the one hosting the programs you want. Check the network field on each listing first, then consolidate.

2
Count the payout thresholds

Five networks with a $50 minimum means $250 stuck in escrow. Concentrating on two or three platforms gets you paid sooner.

3
Match the region to your audience

Awin, Daisycon and TradeTracker reach advertisers that global networks simply do not carry — decisive if you write in Dutch, French or German.

4
Weigh in-house rates against admin

Direct programs often pay more, but each adds a dashboard, an invoice and its own payout cycle. Worth it for your top earners, rarely for the long tail.

Network questions

Which network should a beginner start with?

ShareASale or Impact: approvals are realistic without a traffic history, and between them they cover most beginner-friendly programs.

Do networks take a cut of my commission?

Not from your side — the advertiser pays the network fee. Your rate is what the program states, minus currency conversion if applicable.

Why was my application rejected?

Usually thin content, no traffic data, or a mismatch with the advertiser's brand rules. Reapply once you have published relevant content.

Can the same program appear on several networks?

Yes, and terms can differ per region. Check cookie window and rate on each before deciding where to promote it.
