What is the Affiliate+ Marketplace?
Lasso's Affiliate+ Marketplace is a component of our web app that shows you a wide catalog of products we have higher commission rates for:
Here, you can find new products that you may want to promote that align with your brand by using the categories and seeking out matching products.
It's also where you can view Opportunities to earn bonus commissions for products you're already promoting.
Each product shows its current Amazon price, image, title, star rating, and most importantly: the Affiliate+ special commission rate.
How to Create an Affiliate+ Link
Once you've found a deal you want to promote, just click on the Get Link button:
If you haven't added an Amazon Associates affiliate ID/tag yet, you'll need to add one so you can select it when creating your Affiliate+ link:
You can then add this link to your Lasso Dashboard inside WordPress or use the link anywhere else you'd like to, like on social media.
The link functions just like a normal Amazon affiliate link, but you get bonus commissions from Affiliate+ on top of your typical Amazon Associates commissions. π
How to Get Paid for Affiliate+ Marketplace Sales
Before you can get paid your juicy higher commission rates, you'll need to set up your payouts with our payment gateaway, Stripe.
Note: Your standard Amazon commissions will be paid by Amazon Associates as normal. Affiliate+ commissions are additional and paid to you separately by Lasso.
You can follow the steps by clicking on the Configure Payment button from the Affiliate+ Marketplace dashboard:
You'll be taken to Stripe where you can enter your details to get direct payments for extra commissions you make.
FAQs
How Much Does Affiliate+ Marketplace Cost to Use?
The Affiliate+ Marketplace is completely free to use and benefit from on all Lasso plans.
Why Does Lasso Offer This for Free?
We don't think publishers should have to pay to get better commissions on their product recommendations.
Lasso can offer this to its customers for free because we take a small fee from the sellers for promoting the product to you, the publisher.
How Does Affiliate+ Marketplace Benefit Publishers?
Lasso's Affiliate+ Marketplace benefits publishers by offering them much higher commission rates on the same or similar products they are already promoting on their sites.
It's quite simple: switch to Affiliate+ product affiliate links and earn more money!
How Does Affiliate+ Marketplace Benefit Sellers?
Lasso's Affiliate+ Marketplace benefits sellers because they're getting more clicks and sales to their products with a risk-free and significantly lower cost than pay-per-click (PPC) ads.
Amazon already incentivizes sellers to get more sales from outside of Amazon.
That's because they want sellers to use their own means to drive traffic to Amazon. The more traffic going to Amazon, the more sales they make overall, and the more they win.
It also helps them rank better in Amazon search as Amazon promotes listings with more externally-driven sales, and they're willing to pay for this.
