Gaming & streaming affiliate programs for YouTube creators

Turn your YouTube gaming content into income — Afflio gives you tracked links and codes, and pays you automatically.

How YouTube creators earn in gaming

On YouTube, you place your links via description links and pinned-comment codes. Description links carry your tracking, and codes capture viewers who buy later — Afflio attributes both, even days after the view. Codes dropped mid-stream that no one tracks, so you never see the revenue you actually generated. Afflio fixes that — one marketplace of gaming & streaming brands, tracked links and codes for each, and automatic payouts to PayPal or bank.
