Terms of Use

These terms govern your use of the linkapprove.com website, including the pages that describe our network, the public program directory, and anything else we publish there. They apply to everyone who visits the site, whether or not you hold an account on publisher.linkapprove.com or advertiser.linkapprove.com, and they sit apart from the separate partner agreement you accept when you apply for a partner account, which is the document that actually governs approval, commission and payment.

Who these terms bind

The linkapprove.com website is operated by LinkApprove LLC, whose address is 117 South Lexington Street, Ste 100, Harrisonville, MO 64701, United States, and which has run this business since 2024. By opening any page on this site you accept these terms. If you do not accept them, the remedy is simple: stop using the site. If you are browsing on behalf of a company or an agency, you confirm that you have authority to accept these terms for that organization, and "you" in this document means both you and it.

These terms cover the website only. Using the site does not make you a partner and does not sign you up to anything. The program itself, including approval, commission rates, prohibited traffic, reversals and payouts, runs under a separate partner agreement that you read and accept when you apply for an account on publisher.linkapprove.com. Where the two documents overlap and appear to conflict, the partner agreement governs the program relationship and these terms govern your use of the website.

What this site is, and what it is not

LinkApprove LLC has operated since 2024 as a sub-affiliate network and creator monetization platform. In practice that means we hold approved publisher status on upstream affiliate networks and redistribute that access to partners who would not be approved individually. This website describes that business, lists programs we can offer access to, and explains how the partner platform at publisher.linkapprove.com and the advertiser platform at advertiser.linkapprove.com work.

The site is information and marketing. Reading it creates no account, no commission entitlement, and no obligation on our side to accept you. Access to programs begins only after you apply, we review the application, and we approve it. Above an entry requirement of 1,000 followers on one channel we review on content quality and traffic source rather than follower count, but nothing on this site should be read as a pre-approval. Applications are declined, nothing published here commits us to approving yours, and we cannot tell you in advance how yours will be decided.

Taking part costs partners nothing. There is no monthly fee, no minimum spend, and no exclusivity requirement, so you are free to run other networks alongside us. We are paid by keeping a share of the commission an advertiser pays, and partners receive up to 90 percent of it, with the exact share varying by tier and by program. Because our ability to offer a program comes from the networks we are approved on, that access can change, and what is available through this site can change with it.

Nothing on this site is legal, tax, accounting or financial advice. We publish general information about how affiliate commission works, how we are paid, and how we pay partners. Your own tax position, your disclosure obligations to your audience, and your obligations under local advertising rules remain yours to establish, with professional advice where the situation calls for it.

Program listings and directory figures

Commission rates, program conditions, category exclusions and traffic restrictions shown anywhere on this site are set by advertisers and by the networks we are approved on. They are not set by us. We publish them as they were reported to us at the time the page was written, and they can change at any time, sometimes without advance notice to us. Treat every figure in the public directory as indicative rather than as an offer.

The authoritative numbers are the ones displayed in your account on publisher.linkapprove.com at the moment you generate a tracking link and at the moment a sale is recorded against it. If a figure on this website differs from the figure in the panel, the panel governs. We state this plainly because it matters commercially: do not build a media plan, a rate card or a revenue forecast on a directory page without checking the panel first.

A headline rate is not the amount that reaches you, and a recorded sale is not money you hold yet. We keep a share of advertiser commission and pass on up to 90 percent of it, with the exact split varying by tier and by program. Commission is released only once the advertiser validates the sale, which typically happens 30 to 60 days after the transaction date, and a sale the advertiser rejects or later cancels is reversed back out of your balance. Programs also close, pause, restrict traffic types, or leave a network entirely, and our own upstream access can change, so links you have already placed can stop earning.

Payout mechanics described on this site are subject to the same drift, and the thresholds are real limits rather than formalities. Payment runs at a minimum of 100 US dollars on PayPal, Wise, Payoneer, USDT on TRC-20, Bitcoin and Skrill, and at a minimum of 1,000 US dollars on ACH or bank wire, with balances held in US dollars, pounds sterling or euros. Frequency depends on tier: daily for verified partners above 2,000 dollars a month, weekly above 500 dollars a month, bi-weekly for approved partners generally, and monthly by default on new accounts. A balance below the threshold is not lost and does not expire, it rolls forward, but it stays unpaid until the threshold is reached.

Our content and what you may do with it

The text, layout, design, graphics, program descriptions, guides and comparison content on this site belong to LinkApprove LLC or to the people who licensed them to us, and are protected by copyright and other rights. We grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive license to view the site and to print or save a reasonable number of pages for your own evaluation of whether to work with us.

That license does not extend to republishing our content, selling it, presenting it as your own, framing our pages inside another site, systematically copying the directory, or scraping the site to build a competing listing or to train a model. Automated collection at a volume that loads our servers is not permitted either. Any right we have not expressly granted here stays with us, and we can withdraw the license where the site is being used against these terms.

Brand names that are not ours

Advertiser names, program names, product names and logos that appear on this site belong to their owners. We use them nominatively, to identify a program or describe what a merchant sells, and that use is not a claim of endorsement, sponsorship, partnership, or any relationship beyond the access we describe. An advertiser appearing in our directory has not necessarily reviewed or approved anything we have written about it.

We refer to the upstream affiliate networks we are approved on in general terms rather than by name, throughout this site and in correspondence. That is a deliberate commercial policy rather than an oversight, and we will not confirm specific network names on request, including during an application. If you own a mark that appears on this site and you object to how it is used, write to support@linkapprove.com and we will review the page and remove or amend the reference where the objection is reasonable.

Acceptable use of the site

Use the site for its purpose: to learn what we do, to compare programs, and to reach the platforms if you decide to apply. Do not attempt to access parts of the site or the platforms you have not been given access to, probe or test our security, interfere with the service, upload anything malicious, or use our forms and contact channels to send spam, unlawful material, or content designed to mislead. Misrepresenting who you are, including in an application, is also a breach.

One set of network rules is worth repeating here, because the directory is where people usually meet it. Trademark and brand-term bidding on paid search is prohibited across our network, and lifting an advertiser name from a page on this site in order to bid on it puts your commission and, in serious cases, your account at risk. The same applies to incentivized traffic, cashback and reward-for-action placements run without our written approval, to adult, political or misleading content, and to cookie stuffing, forced clicks, self-referral or any undisclosed redirection of the people who click your links.

We record technical data when you use this site, including your IP address, browser, device and the pages you visit, and we use it to operate the site, to keep it working, and to look into activity that appears abusive. The privacy notice published on this site sets out what we do with that data, alongside the account, performance and communications data we hold for people who go on to apply for or hold an account with us.

Where we believe the site or the platforms are being used against these terms, we may restrict or block access without notice, and we may report conduct that appears unlawful to the relevant authority. Blocking access to the website is not the same as a decision about a partner account. Suspending or closing an account, reversing commission that has already been recorded, and what happens to a balance held at that point are dealt with under the partner agreement rather than this document, and they are outcomes that do occur in practice.

What we do not warrant

The site is provided as it is. We take reasonable care with what we publish and we correct errors when we find them, but we do not warrant that the content is complete, current, or free of mistakes, or that the site will be available without interruption. We carry out maintenance and outages happen. Pages describing programs, rates and payout mechanics age quickly, and the panel, not this website, is the current record.

On security we will say what we can support and no more. We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the site and the information we hold, and we keep those measures under review as the business changes. We do not claim that this site, or any site, can be made completely secure, and we give no guarantee against interception, unauthorized access or loss. If you believe you have found a vulnerability, write to support@linkapprove.com rather than testing it further.

Many of the people who read this page are in the United Kingdom or the European Union, where consumer law and data protection law give rights that cannot be signed away, and where the UK GDPR and the GDPR govern how we handle personal data about you. Nothing in this section or in the two that follow removes or limits a right you hold under mandatory law in your own country, and where a clause here conflicts with such a right, the right prevails.

Limits on our liability

We do not exclude liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be excluded. Beyond that, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, anticipated commission, business, goodwill, data or opportunity arising from your use of the website, including a decision you take on the strength of a directory figure that later changes.

The website is free to use and you pay us nothing for access to it, so there is no fee against which to measure a cap. Our total liability to you for all claims connected with this website, taken together, is limited to one hundred United States dollars. Liability connected with the partner program itself, meaning commission, reversals, payouts and account decisions, is dealt with under the partner agreement and is not governed by this cap.

Your indemnity to us

If you use this website in breach of these terms or unlawfully, and that use leads to a claim, demand or penalty against us, you agree to cover our reasonable losses, legal costs and expenses arising directly from it. This covers your own conduct only. It does not make you responsible for claims caused by our acts or our content, or by another user, and it does not apply where we could reasonably have avoided the claim ourselves.

If a claim of that kind arises, we will tell you about it promptly, give you the information you reasonably need, and not settle it in a way that binds you without asking you first. We would rather resolve a problem than invoice you for one, and in practice we will raise the underlying issue with you well before it reaches this stage wherever the timeline allows.

Governing law and how disputes proceed

These terms, and any dispute arising from them or from your use of the website, are governed by the laws of the State of Missouri in the United States, without regard to its conflict of law rules. You and we agree that the state and federal courts located in Missouri have jurisdiction over such disputes. Where you are a consumer in the United Kingdom or the European Union and mandatory law gives you the right to bring a claim in the courts of your own country, that right is unaffected.

Before anyone files anything, talk to us. Write to support@linkapprove.com setting out what happened and what outcome you are looking for, and we will respond and try to resolve it within a reasonable period. Most disagreements about a figure, a link or a page are factual and are settled by looking at the record together. This step is asked for in good faith and does not bar you from seeking relief, including urgent relief, from a court.

The rest of these terms

If a court decides that part of these terms cannot be enforced, that part is removed or narrowed to the smallest extent needed and the rest continues to apply. If we do not enforce a term straight away, we have not given it up and may enforce it later. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these terms to another company, for example if the business is sold, and we will tell you if that happens. You may not transfer yours without our written agreement.

These terms, together with the privacy notice published on this site, are the whole of the agreement between us about your use of the website, and they replace anything said earlier about it. Nobody who is not a party to them acquires rights under them. Where you also hold a partner or advertiser account, the agreement covering that account sits alongside this one rather than replacing it.

Changes to these terms

We change this document when the business changes: a new payout method, a different platform structure, a legal requirement we have to meet. The version that applies to you is the one published on this page at the time you use the site, and the date it took effect is shown with it. We do not apply changes retroactively to a dispute that has already arisen before the change was published.

Where a change materially affects the people who read this page, we will flag it on the page itself, and if you hold an account we will notify you through the partner panel or by email to the address on your account. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated version. If you do not accept it, stop using the site, and if you hold an account, raise it with us before you carry on.
