What are affiliate contests?

Affiliate contests are performance-based campaigns that reward partners for achieving specific goals within a defined timeframe.

You set the rules, metrics, and prizes. Partners compete based on revenue, referrals, or conversions, and live leaderboards show who is leading. At the end of the contest, winners are automatically determined based on your criteria.

Affiliate contests help increase engagement, boost short-term performance, and recognize top contributors without adding operational complexity.

Clear goals and visible rankings motivate partners to promote more consistently.

Recognition strengthens loyalty
