What are affiliate links?
Affiliate links are specially marked links provided by companies or online platforms to promote products or services. When you click such a link and then make a purchase or sign up for a service, the person who shared the link receives a small commission. For you as the buyer, there are no additional costs – the price stays the same.
How do affiliate links work?
- Partner integration: A website, blog, or social media channel shares an affiliate link to a product or service, e.g. an online shop or a booking platform.
- Click and tracking: When you click the link, this is recorded by a tracking code that stores the website you came from.
- Purchase or action: When you buy something or carry out a specific action (e.g. registering), this is attributed to the affiliate partner.
- Commission: The affiliate partner receives a commission, which depending on the programme can be a fixed amount or a percentage of the purchase price.
Why are affiliate links used?
Affiliate links are a win-win situation:
- For you: You discover interesting products or services, often with helpful recommendations or reviews.
- For websites: They can use the commission to fund their content, e.g. to offer free articles, videos, or tutorials.
- For companies: They reach more customers through advertising by affiliate partners.
