Affiliate networks: what they really pay
11 affiliate networks, where one login opens many brands, read from each company’s own page.
A network puts many programs behind one login. You sign up once, then apply to each brand, and the network handles tracking and pays you.

How to read this
- ‘Up to’ is the top of a range, and says nothing about typical pay.
- ‘Not on its page’ means the company’s public page shows no figure, so ask them or read the terms after you join.
- Rates change, so check the program’s page before you build anything around it.
