What is an affiliate program?

An affiliate program refers to the package of attributes you create for your product, which is then made available to potential publishers. The program will typically include information about the product, its retail value, commission rates, and promotional materials. Many affiliate programs are maintained through an affiliate network, which serves as a platform to connect publishers and advertisers, but your program can also be offered directly.
