How Do Affiliate Links Actually Work?

Affiliate links are unique URLs given to affiliates to track their referrals.

When someone clicks your link, a cookie is stored in their browser, tracking their actions on the business’s website. If they complete a desired action, like making a purchase, the affiliate program attributes the referral to you.

While it's possible to have affiliate links that do not store cookies, this is uncommon.

In some cases, there are API keys which can be used for more advanced affiliate integrations.

You earn a commission, usually a percentage of the sale or a fixed amount, based on the program’s terms. This allows businesses to reward affiliates for driving traffic and sales.

How Do I Add A Monero Affiliate Program To My Business?

We can't give you any specific advice on adding a Monero affiliate program at this time. Contact Monerica if you are interested in doing this.

Why Should I Participate in a Monero Affiliate Program?

If you can attract customers who pay with Monero to businesses, participating in a Monero affiliate program allows you to earn commissions in Monero or fiat.

Running traffic to an affiliate offer can be done for free and is therefore much easier to get started with than creating a new business.

Unlike traditional affiliate marketing, which often involves fiat currency that could come from stolen credit cards, Monero transactions cannot be reversed due to fraud. This makes it safer and faster for businesses to work with you when a customer pays using Monero.

What Does It Take To Be Successful With A Monero Affiliate Program?

The types of individuals who are likely to succeed in a Monero affiliate program include those who:

• Run a popular website focused on Monero
• Are experts in SEO (search engine optimization) as it relates to Monero content
• Have a large email list of subscribers interested in Monero
• Manage a sizable social media following that engages with Monero content
• Own an app that integrates Monero
• Run advertisements related to Monero
• Administer or participate in a large group chat that relates to Monero
• Review products and/ or services where customers can pay with Monero

It's important to note that affiliate programs almost always have a minimum threshold for payout. If you do not reach the amount for payout, you will not be paid. For this reason, it is best to focus your efforts on a single affiliate program or category.

From the quantity of affiliate programs available, it should be assumed that exchanges are by far the most profitable category. However, you may be more successful with a different category.

What Do I Need To Participate in a Monero Affiliate Program?

While every affiliate program can have its own specific rules, to particapte in a Monero affiliate program, you generally need:

• An email address for account sign up (some do not require this)
• A Monero wallet to receive payout (some may require you to be paid with PayPal or a bank account)

You use this information to sign up for the affiliate program and get compensated.

Who Should Not Participate in Monero Affiliate Programs?

While the prospect of earning Monero by posting links is appealing, it's important to manage your expectations and understand your capabilities.

If you don’t have an established audience or lack skills in online marketing, your chances of making money through a Monero affiliate program will be slim. In that case, it may not be worth the effort to participate.

Although many Monero affiliate programs pay in Monero, some may be required to compensate you through Bitcoin, fiat payment methods, such as a bank account or PayPal, due to specific country laws or personal preference. Be sure to clarify how you will be paid before promoting an offer.

Additionally, if you are caught scamming or misleading customers out of their Monero, businesses can suspend your affiliate account before issuing any payments.

Why Isn't My Monero Affiliate Program Listed Here?

If you have a business which accepts Monero and has an affiliate program but it's not listed here, contact Monerica about it.
