What are partnerships on Digistore24?
In general, in a partnership you work together with other affiliates or vendors and give them a percentage of your earnings. In return, your partners support you in acquiring new customers and promoting your products. You benefit from higher sales and your partners benefit from their share in the sales they refer.
As Europe's largest affiliate network, Digistore24 is the ideal partner to handle business relationships professionally and automatically. With just a few clicks, you can set up partnerships with us – then we take care of calculating and paying the shares to your partners.
There are 3 types of partnerships on Digistore24:
1. Partnerships with Affiliates
The most basic form of partnership is cooperating with affiliates: you offer your product to be promoted and affiliates can sign up for a partnership with you. An affiliate then advertises and distributes the so-called promo link, which leads to your sales page.
So-called cookies, which are placed in the browser of the respective customer, can be used to trace the affiliate through which the customer came to you. If they make a purchase within the next 180 days, the affiliate receives their commission. You can set the commission amount yourself, depending on the product or individually for each affiliate.
The easiest and most effective way to get new affiliates is on the Digistore24 marketplace. It is there that you as a vendor can publish your product. Numerous affiliates who are already active with other products regularly search the marketplace for new and lucrative offers. They can sign up for a partnership with you and get started right away with just one click. Learn more about the Digistore24 marketplace.

2. Partnerships with other Vendors (Joint Ventures)
Other vendors are looking for ways to increase sales just like you. In a joint venture, you sell the product together with another vendor. This is always useful if both of you worked together to create the product.
For a joint venture, you can define the percentage distribution of the earnings yourself. In addition, each partner can integrate their own affiliates and, if desired, only calculate the affiliates’ commissions from their own share.
