How to

From account to your first recommendation.

  1. Create your account

    It costs nothing to join, and there is no requirement for a particular amount of traffic. Tell us about the channels you want to use.

  2. Join a program

    One click. There is no queue and no manual approval – your personal tracking link exists straight away. If you break a store’s guidelines, the store can block you; but you do not wait to get started.

  3. Create your first link

    Choose a channel, and send the reader straight to the product page with a deep link instead of to the front page. A campaign name and sub-ID mean you can see afterwards exactly which mailing or which post sold. If the store only allows certain channels, you can only choose those – so you do not get sales rejected for using a channel that was not allowed. If you generate a link identical to one you already have, you get the old one back instead of a duplicate.

  4. Share the link, and follow your results

    Use the link in relevant content on a channel the store allows, and make it clear that the content is advertising. Follow clicks, sales and commission in the dashboard. If you have a website, you can add our placement script for more precise information about the page the link is on.

Every link gets a QR code, which is created in your own browser and not sent to a third party. And the whole portfolio is grouped by store with clicks, sales and earnings per single link, so a dead link is easy to spot.

Earnings

The commission rate is not the number.

A high rate says nothing in itself. The number that decides your earnings is EPC – what a click is worth once conversion rate and order value are included. Two programs with the same traffic can be a factor of three apart.

The maths

Program A

5% · basket DKK 900 · CVR 3%

DKK 1.35

per click

Program B

15% · basket DKK 250 · CVR 1%

DKK 0.38

per click

Program A pays more than three times as much for exactly the same traffic, even though the rate is a third. The numbers here are a worked example – the real ones are on every program in the catalogue.

Run the numbers on a real program

Your traffic, their rate – what does it add up to?

Calculation for Linkfabrikken: 2,050 clicks a month and an assumed conversion rate of 6.3% give 128 sales and DKK 19,219 in commission a month, equivalent to DKK 9.38 per click. The conversion rate is an assumption you set yourself – not a promise.

25% per sale · cookie 30 days · recurring 6 months

Clicks in · 2,050128 sales

With your assumption, one in every 16 clicks becomes a sale.

The program has a documented 6.3% across all affiliates. That is history, not a forecast for your traffic.

Equivalent per click

DKK 9.38

The program’s documented EPC is DKK 5.80 per click – what a click has historically been worth for all affiliates combined. If your own calculation is far above that, the assumption is probably too optimistic.

The conversion rate is an assumption you set yourself – not a promise. Nobody can know how your particular traffic converts. The commission is locked at the click, but the sale still has to be approved by the store, and your approved balance must be at least DKK 100 before it is paid out. The numbers here show the first month’s commission – the program pays recurring commission on top of that.

Be honest about the timeline

A click only turns into money if someone buys within the cookie window. After that, the store has the program’s approval period – between 30 and 90 days, typically the return period – to reject the sale. If it does not, the sale is approved automatically. And only when your approved balance is at least DKK 100 is it paid out – automatically on the first banking day of the month.

Add to that the fact that the content has to get traffic before there is anything to track at all. From the first article to the first payout takes months, not days. Affiliate income is a curve, not a salary – and anyone who tells you otherwise is selling you a course.

Choosing a program

Four numbers before you join.

Every program in the catalogue shows the network’s own measurements. We only publish them above a threshold: EPC and conversion rate require at least 25 clicks, the average basket at least 3 sales. A number calculated from four clicks would look precise and be wrong.

EPC

Earnings per click

What a click has historically been worth at the store – commission, conversion rate and order value combined in one number. Only shown once the program has at least 25 clicks behind it. Below that threshold the number is noise, and then we do not show it.

CVR

Conversion rate

What share of the clicks become a sale or a lead. The same threshold of 25 clicks. A program with a low rate and a high conversion rate often beats the reverse.

AOV

Average basket

What an order typically comes to. Shown from 3 sales. Multiplied by the rate, it tells you what a sale is worth – before you spend a week writing about the store.

DAYS

Cookie window

How long your click counts if the buyer does not purchase straight away. Stores choose between 14 and 90 days. The window is locked the moment someone clicks and is decided on our server – not in the browser.

Risk

The risk you should know first.

The most expensive thing in affiliate work is not a low rate. It is a month’s work for a store that rejects four out of ten sales. That is why it is a number we show before you join – not only once you are under way.

That is why the store’s approval rate is on the program page: the share of decided sales it actually approves. The number is only shown once the store has decided at least 10 sales, so a single rejection does not condemn anyone.

  • The store has the program’s approval period (30–90 days) to reject. If it does not respond, the sale is approved automatically.
  • A rejection requires a reason. You can read it on the sale.
  • An approved sale cannot be rejected afterwards.
  • The commission is locked the moment someone clicks – later changes do not affect the traffic you have already sent.
  • The same order can never count twice, and bots are not counted as clicks.

You can follow the status of every sale in the dashboard and see the reason if the store rejects it.

Content

Sell the product, not the link.

An affiliate link does not earn money because it is there. It earns money when someone is already about to decide, and you save them the last step. Four things work, and the platform gives you the basis for all four.

Send them to the product

A deep link lands the reader on exactly the page you are writing about. A front page is a new decision, and most people do not make it. Product search finds the item across the stores with price, stock and an estimate of what you earn – and gives you the link straight to it.

Write about what actually sells

Every program page shows which products other affiliates have actually sold at the store. They are order lines, not a guess.

Read the guidelines before you write

Allowed channels, paid search, coupon and cashback sites and the approval period are on the program page. A sale that breaks them can be rejected – with a reason you get to see.

Use the discount code if the store has one

If the code is used in a tracked order, both the code and the discount amount are stored. Always share your affiliate link: a code for all affiliates does not earn commission in itself. If the store has given you a personal discount code, it earns commission, even without a click.

Placements

See which page earns.

Most affiliates know which program earns. Fewer know which article. The placement report gathers clicks, sales, EPC and earnings per URL – first per domain, then expanded per single page.

For each page you see the three products it has actually sold, and how the last 30 days compare with the previous 30. That is how you spot an article that is dying while there is still time to update it.

Coverage

The report is only as good as its coverage. The dashboard shows, per site, what share of the clicks have the exact page – covered from 80%. If it is low, the one fix is shown next to the site: insert links as HTML, or add the placement script. We always see the site itself – it does not need to be tagged.

None of it requires us to track your visitors. The HTML link only asks the browser to send the page address along, and the script writes a URL on a link. It reads no cookie, sets no cookie and follows nobody across sites – we do neither fingerprinting nor cross-device tracking.

AI and your tools

Payouts

How you get the money.

Every sale has one of three statuses: pending, approved or rejected. A conversion never credits your balance automatically – everything is created as pending and must either be approved by the store or run out the approval period.

  • Your available balance is based on approved commission minus payouts and any reversals.
  • The minimum is DKK 100 in approved balance. Pending commission cannot be paid out. A progress bar shows how far you have to go.
  • The payout happens automatically on the first banking day of the month and is sent by bank transfer. You are notified in the dashboard when it is on its way, and can follow the status in your payout history.
  • If you do not want to wait, you press "Udbetal nu" (pay out now) when you have at least DKK 100 in approved balance. The automatic payout can be paused.
  • If a sale that has already been paid out is refunded within 90 days of the approval, the balance goes negative and is offset against your next payout. We do not hide it behind a zero. If more than 90 days have passed, you keep the commission.
  • As a Danish affiliate, you enter your registration number and account number or an IBAN. On top of that come your personal details (address and CPR or CVR number) and a self-billing agreement. Every payout gets a settlement statement – with VAT on top if you are VAT-registered and your VAT number is confirmed in the EU’s VAT register VIES.
  • If you change bank account, you get a security email, and we only pay out to the new account 48 hours after the change.

The last six months’ earnings and the whole transaction history are on the payout page, the dashboard has an annual overview, and your numbers can be downloaded as CSV for your bookkeeping. We report payouts to Danish private individuals to the Danish Tax Agency (eIndkomst). We are not tax advisers – questions about hobby, business and VAT belong with your tax authority.

Referrals

Earn by referring others.

You have your own referral link. If someone creates an account through it within 45 days, the referral is booked – and you earn a share of their commission for 12 months.

8%

The first five you refer

Numbers six to fifteen

12%

After that

The rate is locked at the referral and cannot be lowered afterwards. The bonus is paid by us: the person you referred keeps their full commission, so you do not earn at their expense. If the sale that triggered the bonus is rejected, the bonus is rejected with it – nothing is paid out for sales that never came to anything. The whole model is under the referral program for affiliates.

Pitfalls

Five mistakes that cost money.

Choosing a program by its rate

15% of a small basket with a low conversion rate rarely beats 5% of a large one. Sort by EPC.

Sending every click to the front page

Every click that lands somewhere other than the product costs you a decision. Use deep links.

Inserting links without page tracking

Use “Copy HTML” or placement.js. Otherwise you can see that a site earns, but not which page – and you cannot write more of what works.

Ignoring the guidelines

Channel restrictions, brand bidding and discount codes are on the program page. They are the most common reasons for a rejection with a reason.

Counting on the money too early

A sale is not secure until it is approved – or until the program’s approval period (30–90 days) has passed. Pending commission is not a balance.

Questions

What people ask.

Can I use ChatGPT or Claude for my affiliate links?

Yes. Connect your affiliate account via Affilyflow’s MCP server and approve the access with a login. The assistant can fetch programs, create links and read your clicks, sales and commission. You must first join the program in the dashboard. ChatGPT uses Developer mode on the web; availability depends on your subscription and workspace. You can also use a REST API for your own tools.

Does it cost anything to become an affiliate?

No. There is no membership fee, no setup cost and no requirement for a particular amount of traffic. The rate you see is the rate you get – the network fee is part of the store’s total price and is not deducted from your rate. You do not get the rate minus a deduction.

Do I have to be approved before I can start?

No. Joining a program is approved automatically, and your tracking link exists the same moment. A store can block an affiliate who breaks the guidelines, and a blocked affiliate cannot earn – it is enforced in the database, whichever route the sale comes in by. But you are not queuing to get started.

How long until I get paid?

The store has the program’s approval period – 30, 45, 60 or 90 days, as shown on the program – to reject a sale. If it does not respond, the sale is approved automatically. If your approved balance is at least DKK 100 and your bank and personal details are in place, we pay it out automatically on the first banking day of the month by bank transfer. If you do not want to wait, you can press "Udbetal nu" (pay out now).

What is EPC, and why does it come before the commission rate?

EPC is earnings per click: what a click at the store has historically been worth, once conversion rate and order value are included. The rate alone says nothing about how often people buy, or how much they buy for. We only show EPC when the program has at least 25 clicks behind it.

Can the store lower my commission after I have sent the traffic?

No. The rate, commission type, cookie days and number of recurring months are copied onto the click itself and used at conversion. If the store changes its terms tomorrow, it does not affect the traffic you have already sent – and an ongoing recurring agreement cannot be cut back afterwards.

Do I need a CVR number to be an affiliate?

No. You can be paid as a private individual or as a business. As a Danish private individual, we ask for your CPR number (Danish personal ID number), because we have to report the payout to the Danish Tax Agency (eIndkomst). If you choose business, we ask for your CVR number (Danish company number) and whether you are VAT-registered – if you are, and the VAT number is confirmed in the EU’s VAT register VIES, we add VAT on top of the payout. What you have to declare yourself is between you and your tax authority. This is not tax advice.
