How a Vendor Creates Campaigns and Banners

What Are Campaigns?

Campaigns are the promotional assets that vendors create for affiliates to use when promoting a program. Instead of affiliates just sharing a plain tracking URL, campaigns give them ready-made creative materials — banners, text links, video embeds — that make it easier to promote and increase conversions.

Vendors can create four types of campaigns:

  • Banners — image-based display ads that affiliates can embed on their websites.
  • Text Ads — text-based links with a headline and description.
  • Invisible Links — clean, direct tracking links without any creative wrapping.
  • Viral Videos — video-based promotional assets.

To create campaigns, your account must have Vendor Status — either via vendor self-registration or enabled by the Admin. You should also have at least one approved Program, as campaigns are linked to programs.

How to Access the Campaigns Page

  1. Log in to the user panel.
  2. In the top navigation bar, click MarketTools to open the dropdown menu.
  3. Under the Campaigns section, click Campaigns.
  4. The Campaigns page opens and shows all your existing campaign assets.

How to Create a Banner

  1. On the Campaigns page, click the Create New button next to Banners at the top of the page.
  2. The banner creation form opens. Fill in the required details: the banner image, dimensions, and the program it is linked to.
  3. Save the banner. It will appear in the list for affiliates to use.

How to Create a Text Ad

  1. On the Campaigns page, click the Create New button next to Text Ads.
  2. Fill in the headline, description, and the program it promotes.
  3. Save the text ad.

How to Create an Invisible Link

  1. On the Campaigns page, click the Create New button next to Invisible Links.
  2. Enter the destination URL and link it to the relevant program.
  3. Save the link. Affiliates can then copy and use this tracking link directly.

How to Create a Viral Video

  1. On the Campaigns page, click the Create New button next to Viral Videos.
  2. Enter the video details and link it to the relevant program.
  3. Save the video asset.

What Happens After

Once you save a campaign asset:

  • Affiliates who join your program can see and use the campaign assets from their Campaigns page.
  • Each asset is automatically paired with the affiliate’s unique tracking code, so all clicks and conversions are tracked correctly.
  • You can create as many campaign assets as you need — different sizes, different messages, different programs.

Providing high-quality banners and clear text ads significantly improves affiliate performance. Affiliates are more likely to actively promote programs that have ready-made creative assets they can use immediately.
