Accelerate growth with data, insights & publisher partnerships:
Boosted sales
Data from the Skimlinks platform shows that in 2024, the top 100 merchants saw their average order value grow by 20% year-over-year. This performance is driven by high-intent traffic from trusted publishers and shopping platforms.
Full transparency
Skimlinks offers a transparent publisher network that allows advertisers to scale efficiently. Our reporting includes detailed insights — impressions, clicks, CTR, conversions, order value, and more — broken down by publisher and available directly within most affiliate networks.
Exclusive rates
Merchants can set one-to-one commission rates with top-performing publishers or curated publisher groups. Our Account Managers help craft competitive offers that attract the right partners and increase both sales and average order value.
Detailed insights
Merchants receive regular reports — and in some cases, tailored reporting — to help them understand how their affiliate program is performing. These insights help merchants track performance, identify trends, and uncover new growth opportunities.
