Affiliate Marketing Programs
As a long-time affiliate marketer, I’ve participated in a lot of different affiliate marketing programs. Some are great and some not so much. Many different programs have some of the same retailers but commissions can vary widely from program to program. Since commission rates can and do change often it pays to be a part of several different programs. Not to mention, most programs offer special bonuses from time to time.
While everyone has their own opinions, I’m not a fan of Impact, Howl and Rakutan’s affiliate marketing programs. Impact requires approval for each individual brand. Getting approved can be hard. Impact allowed their retailers to miss payment deadlines without penalty. Rakuten just didn’t have enough brands that were good fits for my audience. Meeting the payout thresholds took a long time. Howl links never seemed to convert.
My Favorite Programs
Levanta
Levanta’s affiliate program is your gateway to higher earning potential. Whether you’re a seasoned marketer or new to the affiliate space, Their program is designed to provide you with the tools, support, and opportunities you need to succeed. Check it out HERE.
Joining is simple and free. Once you sign up, you’ll gain access to exclusive promotional materials and a unique affiliate link to share on your blog, social media, or website. For every sale made through your link, you’ll earn a generous commission, making it a win-win for both you and your audience. I like how my Genius Link account integrates with Levanta. This ensures, I earn more automatically. Click HERE for more information.
You can’t earn commissions from Levanta and Amazon at the same time. BUT, you can post Levanta links in places that you can’t normally place Amazon affiliate links.
Joylink
This one is very new. It works similarly to Levanta in that it has Amazon deals where sellers pay a much higher commission than the Amazon Associates Program. What’s even better is they have a huge catalog of regular Amazon deals.
Where Joylink’s this affiliate program shines is that they also offer deep linking so your links open in the retailer’s app so you don’t lose sales. One of my favorite features is the AI post creation. It’s fast and easy to create posts. I also like their Chrome broswer extention. I can create deals without leaving the Amazon product page.

Mavely
This program offers a large number of large well-known brands to promote. Several brands offer double digit commissions. Mavely offers some cool tools to make promoting easier. You can create an online shop and they have a browser extension to help you promote your favorite stores and deals. I’ve done fairly well in this program in a short period of time earning some nice bonuses along the way. If you would like to check it out you can HERE.
Shop Your Likes
With major well-known retailers this program offers various ways to earn. Users can take part in the commission base program and or the pay per click program. I’ve done fairly well with this program. I like the ready made deals you can simple create a link for and start promoting right away. If you sign up now you can earn a $100 bonus. You MUST enter my special code 330bL when signing up to receive the bonus.
This program is very popular but I’ve not used it much yet. They do have a large selection of brands to promote. Just browse their list of deals, create a link and post the deal. This saves me a load of time by not having to search out deals to post. ShopStyle Collective also has smartphone apps for those who work off of their phone. Check them out here.
Cactus Media
This one is a little different. Cactus pays flat rate commissions for driving membership and free trial signups. Most of their brands are top national brands. They offer some brands that you must apply for. Commissions can be as much as $60 for a single signup. It’s pretty easy to start making commissions in no time.

This program has hundreds of brands to promote. I’m pretty impressed with some of the big names. While not huge they do have a list of updated promotions for you to grab links quickly and post. Their no fluff website makes quick and efficient work of creating links. The reporting page is very detailed and has several handy options. If you join using this link you can qualify for a $25 bonus. Be sure to use this code BRAND9366 when asked.
