Can Skimlinks manage my affiliate program and relationships?

Skimlinks is a technology-driven platform that automates the scaling of your affiliate program. While our technology connects you with 23 of the top 25 publishers worldwide, the level of manual relationship management and strategic support depends on your assigned service tier (Growth or Managed).

Automated Scaling via Skimlinks Technology

For most merchants, Skimlinks acts as an automated growth engine. Our technology handles the following for all accounts:

• Instant Connectivity: Automatically making your program available to our global network of quality publishers.
• Technical Tracking: Ensuring all clicks and sales are accurately recorded through your affiliate network.
• Offer Distribution: Share your offers in your network so they become visible in our Publisher Hub.

Understanding Service Tiers: Growth vs. Managed

To manage expectations regarding manual support, please note the distinction between our tiers:

• Growth Tier (Self-Service): This tier is designed for brands that prefer to manage their own program. You are responsible for setting your own rates and optimizing your profile. Support is focused on technical troubleshooting and is provided through this Help Center.
• Managed Tier: This premium service is reserved for high-volume partners. Managed accounts work with a dedicated Account Manager who provides proactive recruitment and strategic advice.

Managing Publisher Relationships

If you are looking to build deeper relationships with specific publishers:

• Strategic Outreach: Direct recruitment of top-tier publishers is a manual service provided within the Managed tier.
• Network Tools: For Growth accounts, we recommend using your affiliate network dashboard (e.g., Awin, CJ, Impact) to set up exclusive commission groups.
• Optimization: All merchants are encouraged to keep their profiles updated to naturally attract publishers through our automated system.

Resolution: How to get more support?

If you feel your program has reached a volume that requires dedicated management, please focus on optimizing your base commission rates and ensuring your profile is complete. Our team regularly reviews Growth accounts for potential promotion to the Managed tier based on performance.
