Affiliate Setup (Roadmap)

Affiliate monetization means we use tracked links. If someone buys after clicking, we may earn a commission (at no extra cost to them).

What we already have

• Affiliate disclosure page: Affiliate Disclosure
• Gear placements on tools/pages (currently generic links, ready to swap later)

What “affiliate setup” actually is

There are two layers:

• Accounts: you join programs (Amazon, networks) and get tracking IDs.
• Implementation: we replace generic links with tracked links, and keep everything labeled correctly.

Amazon Associates (gear links)

• Pro: easiest “recommended gear” start.
• Con: approval can require a few qualifying sales within a time window.
• Needs from you: region(s) + tracking ID(s).

Global links (region-aware)

Because your audience is global, we route some links through a safe internal redirect like /go/dice-set. The redirect chooses a store based on the visitor’s region (US/UK/EU/other) and sends them to the best match.

When you’re accepted into affiliate programs, we’ll add the correct tracking parameters per region without changing page content.

Affiliate networks (scale later)

Networks like Awin / Impact / CJ / TradeTracker let you join multiple advertisers under one umbrella. This is usually best once you have traffic and want more partners than just “gear”.

• Needs from you: chosen network(s) + advertiser approvals + tracking parameters.

What we need when you’re ready

• Primary audience region (US/UK/DE/NL)
• Programs you’ve been accepted into
• Tracking IDs (Amazon tag, network IDs)

Transparency

We’ll keep “sponsored/affiliate” link attributes, and the footer disclosure stays site-wide. Full details live on Affiliate Disclosure.
