Start with the audience journey. Where does the link land? Does credit require a web purchase, app purchase, paid upgrade, or another event? Check the attribution window, first-click or last-click rule, eligible plans and countries, refund treatment, and whether renewals qualify.
Then check the creator experience: application criteria, product access, reporting detail, creative assets, deep links, discount-code support, brand guidelines, and a real contact for questions. Record the commission basis, duration, validation period, minimum payout, schedule, currency, and available payment methods.
Read the restrictions before publishing. Trademark bidding, self-referrals, unofficial coupons, incentives, unsupported claims, altered brand assets, spam, and misleading comparisons are commonly controlled. Your channel also needs to support a clear affiliate disclosure.
