Our verdict
kautionsfrei.de pays 1 EUR per lead, up to 34 EUR per sale on a cookie window of 90, and it suits German publishers focused on renter audiences. That long cookie window sets it apart from the finance programmes listed nearby. Recurring commission is no, so every policy pays once and renewals bring nothing back.

Pros and cons
Pros
- A cookie window of 90, well past the 30 median for insurance programmes
- 1 EUR per lead, up to 34 EUR per sale pays for a lead and for a finished policy
- Direct and referral tracking, with financeAds running the programme
- Publisher support runs on email, chat and phone
Cons
- Recurring commission is no, so a policy that renews brings nothing back
- Only a German audience converts, since single country covers a single country
- Under 1 EUR per lead, up to 34 EUR per sale, a lead that never becomes a sale earns very little
Who it suits
- Publishers with German rental or tenant audiences
- Sites selling insurance or finance tools to adults
- Networks wanting a cpa and cpl programme in a single market
Who should look elsewhere
- Publishers who need recurring commission, since recurring commission is no here
- Anyone outside the single market in single country
- Readers weighing revenue share models, since Admitad pays 5% per sale
Commission and cookie
Commission runs on a cpa and cpl model, and the payout is 1 EUR per lead, up to 34 EUR per sale. A lead brings a small fee, and a bought policy brings more, so soft sends and hard sells both have value. The cookie window of 90 is the practical headline: a renter who reads a comparison and returns later is still yours. Recurring commission is no, so renewal pays nothing.

Frequently asked questions
How much does kautionsfrei.de pay per lead and per sale?+
Commission is 1 EUR per lead, up to 34 EUR per sale, and the amount is paid on a cpa and cpl basis. A lead alone brings the lower figure, while a completed policy pays the higher figure. There is no revenue share, so earnings stop after the sale is tracked.
How long is the cookie window?+
The cookie window runs 90. That is longer than the 30 median for this vertical, which helps when someone reads about deposit insurance and returns to buy cover much later to sign up.
Does the programme pay recurring commission?+
Recurring commission is no. Every conversion pays once, and a policy that renews later does not produce a second payment. Publishers building income from renewals should look elsewhere for a different model.
Which market can I promote in?+
Coverage is single country, so promotion is aimed at a single country. The company behind the programme is plusForta GmbH, based in Germany. Traffic from other markets sits outside the offer entirely, so a mixed audience dilutes results.
Which network runs the programme?+
The programme is listed on financeAds. Tracking covers both direct links and referral links, as direct and referral shows, so a publisher can choose how a link is passed to the reader.
What kind of product am I promoting?+
The vertical is insurance, in this case rental deposit insurance. That suits publishers whose readers are tenants or renters, and the offer fits pages about renting rather than pages about investing or banking products.
How do I get support as a publisher?+
Support runs on email, chat and phone. Email, chat, phone and a help centre are all available, and chat alone covers 14.2% of programmes on the site, so the contact list here goes beyond chat alone.
What commission model does the programme use?+
The model is cpa and cpl, combining cost per lead and cost per action. Commission is 1 EUR per lead, up to 34 EUR per sale, and the pay levels reflect those triggers.
