An affiliate program is a marketing arrangement in which an online merchant compensates third-party websites (affiliates) for marketing their products or services. When a visitor clicks on an affiliate’s link and makes a purchase, the affiliate earns a commission.
The Affiliate Program is now open to everyone. This means YOU can use it to:
- Feature curated content on your blog.
- Give your audience access to professionally vetted educators.
- Support the educators and models in your kinky and sex-positive community.
- Put more money in your bank account.
- Create an Affiliate Account (through CCBill).
- Create an Affiliate Link.
- Add the link and / or linked banners to your website.
- Get paid for anyone who signs up using your link!
Follow the steps found on the Become an Affiliate Partner page.
