FAQ
Everything creators, publishers and advertisers ask us most — from applying and tracking to payouts and disclosure. Can't find it here? Talk to a real person.
Adsectra is a single platform for creators, publishers and advertisers to run affiliate partnerships. Instead of separate logins for every network you work with, you apply once, generate tracked links for any program you're approved for, and get paid from one consolidated balance.
Adsectra sits on top of the affiliate networks and advertiser programs you already know, bringing them into one account, one link layer and one payout schedule. You don't lose access to any program — you just stop needing a separate login and balance for each one.
Creators and influencers on any platform, publisher and content sites, and advertisers looking to recruit vetted partners. Every application is reviewed by a person, not just an automated filter.
Fill out the application on our Apply page with your details, your primary platform or website, and how you plan to promote. Most applications are reviewed within two working days.
No. Applying and joining Adsectra as a creator or publisher is free. Advertisers pay platform and network fees, which are set out when they launch a program.
No. Plenty of members promote entirely through Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, newsletters or podcasts. Tell us where you post when you apply and we'll match you to programs that fit those channels.
We match programs to your niche, platform, audience and geography, and show you the commission rate, cookie window and approval likelihood before you apply — so you're not applying blind.
Yes. Once your Adsectra account is approved, you can apply to and run as many advertiser programs as you like, all tracked and paid through the same account and balance.
Yes — our migration guide walks through mapping your existing programs into Adsectra, and you keep your approval history rather than starting over.
Yes. Advertisers review every applicant to their specific program and can remove a partner at any time for breaching their guidelines or Adsectra's Acceptable Use Policy. Removal from one program doesn't affect your standing on others.
Every link you generate carries a unique identifier tied to your account. When someone clicks it and completes a qualifying action within that program's cookie window, the conversion is attributed to you automatically — no manual reporting required.
It's how long after a click a resulting sale or lead still counts toward your commission. Windows vary by program — some are as short as 24 hours, others run 90 days — and each program's exact window is shown in your dashboard.
Make sure you're using the tracked link generated in your dashboard rather than a plain product URL, that no tracking parameters were stripped when you shared it, and that the click happened inside the program's cookie window. If it still looks wrong, contact us with the link and the approximate click time.
Validated commissions from every program you run pool into a single Adsectra balance. Once your balance reaches the payout threshold, you're paid on the published schedule, in your currency, with self-billing documents generated for you.
Advertisers can reverse a transaction that's later returned, cancelled, or found to be a duplicate or fraudulent. Reversals are shown against the original transaction in your reporting so you can see exactly why.
Yes, wherever required by law — including FTC guidance in the US and equivalent consumer-protection rules in the UK and EU. Our Disclosure Guidelines cover exactly how and where to label links by platform.
Depending on severity, we may remove the affected content, withhold or reverse the related commission, or suspend your account. Our Acceptable Use Policy and Anti-Fraud & Compliance Policy set out what's never allowed, regardless of any individual program's terms.
Every application is reviewed before approval, and we continuously monitor for anomalies like unusual click-to-sale ratios, duplicate or self-referred transactions, and cookie-stuffing signatures. Confirmed fraud results in commission reversal and can mean removal from the network.
Set your commission model, categories, territories and any partner criteria, and we surface matched, vetted candidates for your review. You approve every partner before they can promote your program.
You keep your existing program wherever it's hosted — Adsectra connects to it rather than requiring you to migrate. Partners recruited through Adsectra are tracked and paid through your normal program, reported back to you in one unified view.
