How much can I earn?
You will be paid $100 for each advertiser that you refer who buys at least $50 per month in text links and $25 for each publisher that sells at least $5 in text links using our service.
In both cases the purchase or sales meeting the above qualifications must be active for a full 45 days before payment is made.
How will I get paid?
Payments are made through PayPal. Unfortunately we do not support other payout methods at present.
To enter your PayPal address, log into your BackLinks account and click the Affiliate Program link on the side navigation.
What if I refer people before I enter my affiliate payment info?
If you refer eligible users before you enter your affiliate PayPal address, you can still earn money for the referral as long as the user is still active and has an eligible BackLinks account.
What is the difference between a Publisher and an Affiliate?
A Publisher is someone who sells links through the BackLinks brokerage. (Click here to register as a Publisher.)
