Benefits

If you are new to affiliate marketing, sign up to the Awin affiliate network today by clicking here. Once you have been approved onto the network, you will have access to all of our advertisers (retailers, service providers etc.) which you can browse here. We recommend before applying to join any advertisers, you take the time to complete your publisher profile with as much information as possible, including your target audience, the sectors you would like to operate in, any key information you can offer, your contact details and the site or channels you post content on.

Awin's tracking technology is easy to integrate and ensures tracking of all referrals from your unique publisher ID. With more than 60% of advertisers now using cross device tracking, publishers are also rewarded for transactions that have been made across multiple devices within the cookie period. We also offer a range of tools to aid publishers in with their affiliate campaigns.

Awin's customisable payment system enables partnerships on non-traditional affiliate marketing models. With 'payment on influence', publishers are paid a fixed amount based on every sale they have a touchpoint in, without representing the last click. Speak to the advertisers you'd like to work with on working on a 'payment on influence' model.

How affiliate marketing works for influencers

Influencers are a great addition to the affiliate marketing mix. Whether you're part of an online magazine, a lifestyle blogger, a hobbyist, Youtuber or Instagrammer, you can become an Awin affiliate and earn money by promoting our brands to your followers. Here's how to get started on our global affiliate network:

Search our advertiser directory, and partner with the best matches for your audience. There's no limit on how many programmes you can join, but those that fit your audience will often perform better.

Trackable links or images are easily generated through the Awin interface, and these can be used to add to your website, blog or social media accounts. They can be added into content pieces, imagery, as well as in the descriptions and bios of social media accounts. You can also use Convert-A-Link to automatically convert URLs on your page to tracking links.

Any visit from your site to the advertiser's site are tracked back to you and your publisher account. Within your account you'll be able to see all of the advertisers you've driven traffic for as well as sales.

Advertisers pay you commission for approved sales referred from your affiliate links.

Find the right advertisers

Browse the profiles of every advertiser on the network, using the sales regions and industry filters. Here you can find information about each advertiser's average payment times, conversion rate and overview of their programme. Get in touch to join and start promoting the brands you love. We work with global and local advertisers across a range of sectors, from retail, to travel, to telco and insurance.

By clicking on an advertiser profile, you can see the terms of their programmes, their goals and objectives, and often a summary of their business and brand perception. Within each advertiser profile, you'll also see statistics on average payment time, approval percentage of sales as well as commission rates paid. Using the navigations on the left, you can apply to join each advertiser programme as you choose. You have the opportunity to write a note to each advertiser. This is a great place to showcase what sets you apart from other content creators. Once approved onto each programme, you'll have access to all the tools you need to promote that advertiser, including deeplink builders, creative, and promotional opportunities.

Link building

We offer a range of tools to aid publishers in with their affiliate campaigns, including:

Convert-A-Link: this small script (piece of code) allows for instant conversion of all links on your website to affiliate links, ensuring your site is optimised to earn commission as quickly as possible.

MyAwin: this Chrome browser extension gives quick access to deeplinks containing your publisher ID so you can grab affiliate links for your favourite products quickly and easily whilst on the advertiser's website.

Opportunity marketplace

Promote available promotional opportunities across your affiliate business by creating a listing. Advertisers can get in contact with you directly through your offer and easily see what's available by sector, opportunity or cost. You can find more information on these and all of our publisher tools here.

Voucher attribution

Our voucher attribution feature allows advertisers to partner with you via an exclusive code which you can share across your channels. You are then rewarded for all sales made using this code. If you'd like to partner with an advertiser in this way, get in touch with them directly.
