Affiliate, referral and reseller programs
You earn for sending buyers, and each program sets its own rate, minimum and rules. Here is how to read what a program really pays.
All three work the same way: someone buys because of you, and you get paid for it. Affiliates earn a share of the sales they bring, referral programs pay for new customers, and resellers buy at one price and sell at another. Our directory lists what each program really pays.

The catch
- In the US, the FTC says to disclose clearly and close to the recommendation. “Paid link” beside the link is adequate.
- The FTC warns that a “buy now” button is not a disclosure.
- A program can change its rates or close your account, so read its terms.
- If you must pay to join and most of the money comes from recruiting others, stop and read the FTC’s job scam warnings first.
