We\u2019ve learned a lot over the years and have built some incredible tools over at Geniuslink and couldn\u2019t be more excited to integrate those here in Kit.\u00a0<\/p><p><strong>Third<\/strong>, it\u2019s important that Kit has a transparent and sustainable revenue model to ensure that your recommendations are here for the long run and the creator community has the resources it deserves to

Somewhat similar to how a price comparison tool works, the approach is simple: for any given product, give the shopper a variety of options in which to buy that product. Some may buy from their preferred retailer, some may buy from the place that has the lowest price, and others may buy from wherever can ship it the fastest. Sometimes Amazon, (the current default destination of the buy buttons on Kit), can fit all three of these criteria, but certainly not always.\u00a0<\/p><p>In fact, while it seems that Amazon \u201cowns\u201d online shopping, that\u2019s only half true, as Amazon\u2019s ecommerce market share in the US is about 40% (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.emarketer.com\/content\/amazon-remains-the-undisputed-no-1\">source: eMarketer<\/a>). This means that over half of the online sales in the US are happening <strong>outside<\/strong> <strong>of Amazon<\/strong>, and this appears to be even lower for niche and specialty products and retailers. A multi-retailer approach helps you capture that other ~ 60% of online sales.<\/p><p>Additionally, <a href=\"https:\/\/aytm.com\/blog\/comparison-shopping-survey\/\">78% of shoppers say they like to do comparison shopping<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oberlo.com\/blog\/ecommerce-statistics#ecommerce-statistic-6-81-percent-of-consumers-conduct-online-research-before-making-a-purchase-online\">81% of consumers conduct online research before making a purchase online<\/a>. By providing multiple buy buttons for each product recommendation, you are giving those shoppers an easy way to use <em>your<\/em> affiliate links to do that comparison shopping between retailers. By only giving your fans a single buy button, you are likely inadvertently encouraging them to go off and search on their own, and possibly click, then purchase, without using your affiliate links.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>Using multiple buy buttons for each product recommendation isn\u2019t a new tactic either. Some of the largest and most successful players in the affiliate game have been doing it for years. You can see this today from the big names like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/best-headphones\/#listicle-99379cae-142f-4e9c-876c-181e35f8396e\">CNET<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/wirecutter\/reviews\/best-workout-headphones\/\">WireCutter<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaltrends.com\/headphone-reviews\/apple-airpods-max-review\/\">Digital Trends<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.digitaltrends.com\/headphone-reviews\/apple-airpods-max-review\/\">Tom\u2019s Guide<\/a>, and many others. Adding \u201cmulti-retailer\u201d to Kit is taking a page out of their playbook and putting it in yours.\u00a0<\/p><p>Finally, we aren\u2019t just using anecdotal evidence here to quantify the value of multi-retailer. On the Geniuslink side we\u2019ve done <a href=\"https:\/\/geniuslink.com\/blog\/how-to-earn-more-affiliate-revenue-on-youtube-with-choice-pages\/\">extensive testing<\/a> to measure the benefit of giving shoppers choices.\u00a0<\/p><p><em>\u2026across all of our experiments, we saw an average EPC change for all seven clients: +152% lift, or 2.5x!<\/em><\/p><p><em>Over 11 separate tests, we saw an average of 2.2x improvement in earnings-per-click with some clients seeing as much as 4.2x lift!\u00a0<\/em><\/p><p>In addition, we have multiple case studies (<a href=\"https:\/\/geniuslink.com\/case-study\/armando-ferreira\">example A<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/geniuslink.com\/case-study\/granger-mccollough\">example B<\/a>), and numerous testimonials (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=1H7XH_ig2og\">example A<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/geniuslink.com\/choice-pages\">example B (see bottom of the page)<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/geniuslink.com\/blog\/how-to-earn-more-affiliate-revenue-on-youtube-with-choice-pages#testimonials\">example C-K<\/a>) to the value of the multi-retailer approach.

This in turn provides some insulation from <a href=\"https:\/\/geniuslink.com\/blog\/amazon-com-affiliate-commission-rates-a-historical-guide\/\">Amazon affiliate commission rate<\/a> cuts which, in the last few years, have been fairly drastic.\u00a0<\/p><p>Additionally, by providing multiple buy buttons you are adding a multiplier to your affiliate efforts as you will have consumers clicking multiple affiliate links.\u00a0 As they do their comparison shopping they are setting multiple affiliate cookies on other stores which are often much longer than Amazon\u2019s 24-hour cookie. Thus, even if the consumer, after checking a couple of other retailers for the product you are recommending, still ends up buying at Amazon, there is still a possibility that you\u2019ll earn a commission from one of the other stores if the consumer happens to return there a few days later and buys something.<\/p><p>Finally, while you may see a reduction in your total clicks to Amazon due to the rollout of multi-retailer (as some consumers are now buying from their preferred destination), you shouldn\u2019t see a reduction in Amazon commissions. Your Amazon affiliate commissions should actually improve. <strong>Our studies showed that when multiple buy buttons were presented, creators maintained or improved their Amazon sales<\/strong>, even though the Amazon button was clicked less. We believe this is a result of giving visitors a way to comparison shop without forcing them to a search engine to finish doing their research and being comfortable moving forward with making a purchase.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-32677c4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"32677c4\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-b38f00a\" data-id=\"b38f00a\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-61bbeb0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"61bbeb0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Additional Affiliate Program Support<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6ef8094 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6ef8094\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a8043aa\" data-id=\"a8043aa\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d9994ee elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d9994ee\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The introduction of multi-retailer should help sell more products for the reasons laid out above.

relevant tracking info for new affiliate programs. While we\u2019d like to think the custom list of \u201cRecommended Affiliate Programs\u201d should help you focus on which programs to apply for we also realize that some of the affiliate programs mentioned require a manual review of your application and\/or are \u201cselective\u201d in nature and have a very high bar of acceptance into their programs.<\/p><p>In cases like these where immediate acceptance into the program isn\u2019t possible we strongly recommend taking advantage of an affiliate aggregator service like Sovrn Commerce or Skimlinks in the interim and then applying again at a later date. More details about how to leverage these affiliate aggregator services to earn commissions from tens of thousands of affiliate programs is detailed in the second method \u2014 connecting a Geniuslink account.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-609a0b6 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"609a0b6\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-6365739\" data-id=\"6365739\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e7ba66a elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"e7ba66a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Retiring Flipkart and eBay\n\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-074433a elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"074433a\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-864eb5d\" data-id=\"864eb5d\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-db45c83 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"db45c83\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Unfortunately, with this major update, we are retiring affiliate support for Ebay and Flipkart, two of the five affiliate programs that Kit previously supported.<\/p><p>While we\u2019d love to support eBay and their eBay Partner Network, their terms of service had previously prevented us from including them in this upgrade. However, in a future release we hope to return affiliation support for eBay.<\/p><p>The decision to remove support for Flipkart was related to the very low usage of the Flipkart affiliate program across Kit, the challenges getting into the program and getting paid, as well as the very limited commissions one could earn from their affiliate program. If\/when the Flipkart affiliate program opens up access to their affiliate program and changes its terms to become a more viable revenue stream for creators, we\u2019d also be happy to reconsider.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2c594f9 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2c594f9\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-0c7d87b\" data-id=\"0c7d87b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d7d8dde elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d7d8dde\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">\u201cCosts\u201d <\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-bb4af24 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"bb4af24\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d4ace22\" data-id=\"d4ace22\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d066e85 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d066e85\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Kit will continue to be free to use.

However, even if you don\u2019t have a Geniuslink account, you\u2019ve been taking advantage of Geniuslink\u2019s technology with Kit \u2014 all the Amazon links on Kit are localized through Geniuslink to help you earn international commissions.<\/p><p>Many of you know Geniuslink does a lot more than just localize Amazon product links or help you earn international Amazon affiliate commissions. Geniuslink is also <a href=\"https:\/\/geniuslink.com\/blog\/universal-book-links\/\">popular among authors for universal book links, specialized links that redirect readers to a book in their Amazon storefront<\/a>.<\/p><p>\u00a0Here are the three additional reasons to connect your Geniuslink account to Kit:<\/p><p>Geniuslink also provides much more in-depth reporting, including insights across geography, language, browser, device, OS, and product type to name a few.<\/p><p>Additionally, the Geniuslink dashboard provides \u201cLink Health\u201d reports for your Amazon links so you can quickly identify those Amazon links that are out of stock (low conversion) or are no longer available (very low conversion) or simply no longer work (no conversion).<\/p><p>Finally, Geniuslink provides affiliate program management for many different affiliate programs. More than three dozen different programs are supported directly inside Geniuslink and can be managed via the dashboard. In addition, and most relevant for the Kit Multi-Retailer launch, is that Geniuslink also supports the two largest affiliate aggregators \u2014 Skimlinks and Sovrn Commerce. These affiliate aggregators allow you to take advantage of tens of thousands of affiliate programs automatically (you don\u2019t have to sign up for each one!) and send you a check monthly for your combined earnings. Please note, that while these affiliate aggregators are a major time saver their service charges a 25% cut of your commissions, however, they are still often very much worth the time and effort.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-ac163d3 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"ac163d3\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-34cad01\" data-id=\"34cad01\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2c6f74d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2c6f74d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Connecting your Geniuslink account\n\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-0efe6c0 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"0efe6c0\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e970774\" data-id=\"e970774\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b3c7fe7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b3c7fe7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The initial integration between Geniuslink and Kit is very simple and requires you to simply grab the <a href=\"https:\/\/intercom.geni.us\/en\/articles\/1065204-what-s-my-tsid\">\u201cGroup ID\u201d from the Groups page in your Geniuslink dashboard<\/a> (this is the number right after the name of your group in the left column).
