Where momentum stalls

A finish line your affiliates can see

Referral links vanity links

Give quiet affiliates a reason to push this month

A fixed commission rate pays the same whether they push this month or next

A prize for first, second and third puts a date on the effort, like the two weeks around your launch

Black Friday or quarter end: set the dates and the leaderboard runs for exactly that window

You promised a competition and now you rank it by hand

The standings live in a spreadsheet you rebuild from exports

Affiliates email to ask where they stand and your reply is already out of date

Affiliates check their own standing in their dashboard, so the emails stop

Coupon code attribution
Direct URL attribution

Add prizes on top of the rates you already pay

A one-month rate bump changes what every affiliate in the campaign earns and taking it back reads like a pay cut

Prizes sit outside commissions: cash, credits, free months or swag, written per place

Your commission setup stays untouched, so there is nothing to roll back when the contest ends

Reward the winners

When the contest ends, prizes go to the top places on the final leaderboard.

How affiliate link tracking works in FirstPromoter

14-day free trial. No credit card required.

Every affiliate sees their rank and what it wins

The leaderboard lives in the dashboard that comes with FirstPromoter, next to the links and earnings affiliates already check.

Top-three podium

The current leaders sit at the top with their scores and the prize each place carries.

Your position card

Each affiliate gets a highlighted card with their own rank, score and the prize for that spot.

Private by default

Other affiliates appear under masked names and a default avatar, while ranks and scores stay visible.

Ad traffic fraud detection

Four ways to shape it

Set it up around your program’s goal

Reward earnings, referrals or conversion rate

Rank by commission earned to push revenue, by new leads to push volume or by conversion rate to reward affiliates whose leads turn into paying customers. The conversion-rate ranking only lists affiliates with at least one paying customer.

Reward earnings, referrals or conversion rate

Frequently Asked Questions

These are the questions we hear most often.

No. Prizes are set per contest and sit next to commissions, so rates, payout terms and billing triggers stay as they are. Affiliates keep earning their normal commission while the contest runs.
