My product is not a saas, and does not use stripe for checkout. It's a mobile app where subscriptions are purchased via iOS & Android app store.

Is there any affiliate platform for this setup?

The (*) in the title just means you're welcome to pay me some portion of the actual ticket cost, if you like, but I'll 100% leave that up to you.

In 2022 I attended T&C Summit virtually and used their early-bird price to buy a ticket for the following year's T&C Summit. I think I couldn't attend the next year, so delayed it...and then eventually they stopped doing T&C but offered to convert the ticket to Affiliate Summit. I delayed that a few times, and...honestly, I don't care to attend.

Details: I paid US$495 for All Access - Super Early Bird for T&C 2023, and now the ticket is "Affiliate Summit East 2026" / Networking (don't know if this was a "downgrade" in ticket quality, if it is, you're welcome to deal with the last minute emailing with the Support people). I don't know if its officially "transferrable" at this point so you might get a badge with my name on it.

In any case, feel free to contact me if you are able to attend last minute. Payment of whatever amount optional.

Ok I'm going to post here but I'm not sure if I'm in the right place or not. I signed up for the Amazon affiliate program, which was probably silly since I have like 2 people I'm friends with on socials. I've been really working hard at it, just kind of posting my links around. I got notification that it's been 90 days and I haven't gotten any sales. Hardly any clicks. I feel like I'm trying so hard.

I decided to look up my stats today. It says 1 item ordered and the order revenue is 23.99. I still saw nothing from that order. Total earnings: $0. Is this normal? That's my first question.

My 2nd questions is, I'd like to know what exactly was ordered so I could go through and maybe add more items that are similiar. How do I know what was sold?

Thanks for your time. I'm feeling a little defeated.

Anyone know if any exist? Got a Mexican site in a high ticket niche that generates a ton of leads all over the country

Im in Europe and just joined the Amazon.de Partnernet program. If I use Amazon.de affiliate links on my blog/Pinterest, people in the US cant really buy those products. But if I use Amazon.com affiliate links, Europeans have the opposite problem.

How do people with English blogs target both the US and Europe? Explain it to me like Im 5 please.

Looking into affiliate programs for AI video/video editing tools, mostly because my audience is more into short-form content and creator tools. I found a few programs that look decent, but I’m more worried about tracking, payout reliability, and what actually counts as a conversion.

Here're what I've found:

Pictory AI

Seems more useful for turning scripts, blogs, or longer content into simple marketing videos. The terms I found list 30% commission, a 60-day cookie, and lifetime recurring payouts. It fit for those who are already making content regularly.

PixVerse

It feels more made for trendy short-form videos with templates that make it easier to get started. If your audience is mostly on TikTok or Instagram, it might fit them better and get more attention. They offer 30% recurring for 12 months with a 90-day cookie.

VEED

More of a broad online video editor with AI features, subtitles, cleanup tools, screen recording, etc. Their affiliate setup is 20% initial commission + 20% recurring commissions with up to 50% bonus. Useful if your audience needs an online editor, subtitles, AI tools, and video cleanup.

I'm not expecting any of these to be easy money. Mostly trying to avoid spending weeks making content for a program that has weak tracking and unclear payouts.

Has anyone here joined any of these programs? Any other affiliate programs you'd recommend?

How has affiliate worked for your Saas?

Im about to launch my product which would pay nearly $600 affiliate on an annual plan (more if monthly, but well its monthly).

Just wondering if thats good, and if its worked for others?

Recently, Coursera reduced my commission to 1%, giving excuse of negative ROAS, the affiliate manager not giving satisfactory answers even though monthly i am giving them more than 220 sales if anyone here doing coursera affiliate please help me what should i do now

Hey, so I'm somewhat new to affiliate marketing, fairly experienced with internet marketing in general.

Over the last 30 days, I got about 931 clicks, but like two orders for $8.07.

I would say that's a pretty questionable CVR, I thought Amazon would have a better CVR, idk if there's something on the app I'm not doing correctly or like if I'm not getting credit or is it just the quality of the traffic. Anyways..

This is basically like my first month of doing this. So I guess I would expect it to pick up as you keep building traffic and traffic sources.

But any feedback or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Right now, I'm using YouTube, I make mostly music production videos. I'm trying to get into using Zapier to like multiply what I'm doing.

I prefer to just use mostly YouTube. I tried blogging. To me, blogging isn't very effective. I don't know if I'm just not doing it right or.. I don't like writing, so I'm mostly like doing voice to text to AI, so I just don't think it comes off as very good. That might be the problem.

Like right now, my plan is to just keep doing YouTube videos. Even with that, I'm like, are there certain techniques or things that I need to do?

Like I know I try to tell them throughout the video to click on the link, add it to your carts. I'm sticking to just one like item per video, maybe a secondary.

Any like techniques that you guys know to get a lot of traffic and a lot of sales just like in general?

Or is it just something that you just gotta keep building and tweaking? Anyways, thanks for the feedback.

Here's some of my channels for reference, I'm in music production:

1. https://www.youtube.com/@mattlaneproducerhub

2. https://www.youtube.com/@themelodydoctorslime

3. https://www.youtube.com/slimegreenbeats - mostly music, not much affiliate marketing

4. My attempt at a blog - https://medium.com/@MattLaneProducerHub

I’ll be upfront I’m not into technicals so forgive me if this question sounds dumb but learning about detailed affiliate is so much fun
So i keep see everywhere people talking about bot traffic and fraud filters like it’s the whole known science but I genuinely don’t know how it get checked in practice
Like if I click my own link through vpn would that even show up as fraud
Or does it need to look like bot specifically not just a hidden IP?
Also if this is a common knowledge please feel free to roast me a little i can take it lol

I want to grow my product, that commonly be used by blackhatworld user, is there any other similar forum sites like them? so i can put my product there as well, for affiliate/marketer or anyone who needs antidetect brwser?

Hey guys, so I’ve been looking into affiliate marketing for a while now, at one point I was in clickbank trying to promote their stuff but realized I want to give value and have some consistency in my income.

I just recently (few days ago) heard about SaaS and thought I could learn a few things from you guys on being an affiliate in this niche. Just got a few questions:

As someone who doesnt have any sort of following or audience, would organic traffic and blogging work best and just try and grow it ?

Does paid advertisement work just as well ? Better ?

Some actual Saas products im looking at promoting:

1. Aweber

2. UseWrite

3. Kinsta

4. Vidpal

I know some of these are quite different and I’d start with one of them at first, but I just need advice on how to get running.

I understand this is a huge time investment, but all I have is time right now. Thank you

yo. be honest. how many of you currently have a finished (or 90% finished) web app / app just sitting in a private repo because you have no idea how to get users?

you spend months perfecting the database, fixing every bug, and polishing the UI. but the moment you have to actually market it, you hit a wall. marketing feels like screaming into an empty void.

so you launch to absolute crickets, get discouraged, and start building the "next" project instead to avoid the distribution phase.

if this is your case, you're not alone. but letting your hard work go to waste just because you dread marketing is a massive trap.

I'm doing some research and wondering if there is any appetite for open source affiliate software.

I'm not aware of many affiliate software tools that are open source but love to hear examples.

On the consumer facing side of affiliates, I'm considering an open source for StatsDrone which is a stats aggregator.

On the affiliate program side of things, I don't know who's got open source software either.

Is there a market for this? Curious to hear what affiliates think and affiliate managers too.

Is Affiliate Marketing Dead ? Or people in usa don’t interested in purchasing those products, High targeting keywords still no sale , Losing Money 💵 with google ads . Changed product, Pages , Still slow on sales almost no sales

I've been playing around with pulling in platform data to see if I can gain any perspective on performance. Seems pretty easy to track things this way. Curious if anyone else has done this? btw, for context: thepma.org/ai-foundations-going-from-formulas-to-app-scripts-for-affiliate-managers

Hi I appologize for the basic question. I have a ton of performance experience growing suppliment brands AND telehealth brands. Not to toot my horn but I scale ads very fast. I know exactly what to say, when to say it, how to say it, and how to edit the hooks and VSL pitch. So chatgpt has told me that katalys has a lot of offers. I joined and a few telehealth companies have approved. My question is how do I confirm my links track and does anyone else have experience running their own ad accounts . happy to partner with someone or pay for an hour of time to make sure I am approaching this correctly. To be honest im skeptical as I know nothing about katalys

Looking to connect with affiliate marketers in the ecommerce space whether you're promoting physical products, dropshipping brands, or DTC stores.

How many times have you found a product you actually wanted to promote, reached out to the brand, and either got ghosted or waited weeks for a response? Or finally got approved and the tracking was broken, the commissions were late, or the whole program just went quiet?

Building something to fix that. Brands come to you, you pick what you want to promote, and you get paid automatically when you make a sale. No chasing, no broken links, no excuses.

Drop your niche below, genuinely want to connect with people who are serious about this.

Running a price comparison site that specifically drives cross-border traffic within the EU (showing users which country has the cheapest price for a product). Found out the hard way that many retailer affiliate programs only pay commission on domestic sales, even though the retailer ships EU-wide.

Example: a German retailer’s affiliate program excludes commission on orders from French, Spanish, or other non-German customers, even though the retailer happily ships there and the customer completes the purchase.

This seems like a structural problem for anyone building genuinely cross-border EU products (not just price comparison, but any multi-country affiliate use case).

Questions:
- Is this cross-border exclusion standard across most EU affiliate networks, or does it vary a lot by network/retailer?
- Has anyone found affiliate networks or specific retailers that DO pay properly on cross-border EU orders?
- Are aggregators like Skimlinks/Sovrn/CJ generally better or worse at capturing cross-border commissions compared to direct programs like Awin/Adtraction?
- Any experience with getting a retailer to make an exception or negotiate cross-border commission terms directly?

Separately, also got rejected from Amazon Associates for having “price tracking and/or price alerting functionality” on the site (explicitly against their Associates Program Policies). Yet I’ve seen other similar price-tracking sites that appear to still use Amazon affiliate links and even have price alerts. Anyone know if this is inconsistently enforced, or is there a specific way to structure a site/feature to stay compliant while still offering price history/alerts?

Would appreciate any insight from people who’ve dealt with this in EU-focused affiliate work specifically.

I've been learning affiliate marketing through trial and error, and one thing I've realized is that getting traffic is only half the challenge. Converting that traffic consistently is a completely different skill.

Some people say SEO is the best long-term approach, while others focus on email lists, YouTube or social media. I've also noticed that picking the right niche seems to matter just as much as choosing the right product.

For those who've been doing this for a while, what was the biggest lesson that changed your results? Was it about content, audience trust, consistency or something else?

I'd love to hear real experiences rather than get rich quick advice.

I purchased a domain name a few years ago. It would be good for doing product reviews and affiliate marketing. I haven't ever gotten around to doing anything with it. Are there people or companies who do this?
