Our verdict
EarnStream pays 50% to 60% per sale on cps terms, which suits publishers already selling retail products who want a simple, direct relationship with the creator behind the offer. The limit is scale: 1,776 publishers is a thin roster against a category median of 20,000.

Frequently asked questions
What commission does EarnStream pay on a sale?+
EarnStream pays 50% to 60% per sale, and the affiliate page puts the same offer as Up to 60% per sale set by creators. That reads as a strong share for a retail programme, though what a publisher actually takes depends on the creator behind the offer.
Which commission model does EarnStream run?+
The model list is short and covers revshare, with cps terms for a completed sale. Payment therefore comes from finished purchases, so a publisher sending traffic without converting sees nothing accrue.
What does the programme cost?+
Published pricing lists Affiliate Pro GHS 65/year; Creator Pro GHS 100/month, split between an affiliate tier billed yearly and a creator tier billed monthly. That is the advertiser side of the programme, so read it as a cost for the companies running offers rather than for the people sending the traffic.
How do affiliates follow their conversions?+
Affiliates get trackable links with live click, sale and commission figures on each one, so a conversion can be followed as it lands. Offers run direct, and the cps payout settles against the tracked sale.
How large is the EarnStream network?+
The programme lists 1,776 publishers, and on this directory it sits at 81 of 93 brands for publisher count. That is well under the category median of 20,000, so joining means joining a small roster.
What support do publishers get?+
Support runs on email and community, covering written answers and a community space. Email is also the most common channel across the networks compared here, at 66.1%, so questions tend to go in writing rather than spoken.
Who is EarnStream built for?+
It is aimed at publishers working in retail, with offers sold as direct deals and rates set by the creators behind them. Anyone wanting a wide spread of verticals to choose from will find the offer narrow, since the vertical list is short.
How does EarnStream compare with other networks?+
Admitad runs cpa, cpl and cps, covering cost per action, lead and sale alongside revenue share. A8.net stays on cpa, while the AWEmpire casual dating tier lists PPL, PPLR and PPS. EarnStream's own list is revshare with cps terms.
