The Trackdesk Marketplace is a curated affiliate marketplace run by Trackdesk. Advertisers list their offers, and vetted affiliates (also called publishers) apply to promote them. Trackdesk manages the listings, reviews every advertiser and affiliate, and handles the monthly settlement and payouts between both sides.
Why use the marketplace
For advertisers
Recruit affiliates without doing the outreach yourself. Our team matches your product with best-fit partners from a pool of 100,000+ affiliates across every niche.
Launch with partners from day one instead of waiting for your own sign-ups.
Keep everything in Trackdesk. Marketplace traffic and conversions are tracked in your existing account, with no extra setup.
Leave the admin to us. Trackdesk manages your listing, collects payment for approved conversions, and pays out every affiliate.
The marketplace is available to customers with an active Trackdesk subscription. Not a Trackdesk customer yet? See plans and pricing or book a demo. If you are on a free trial, click Upgrade in your account to choose a plan.

Get paid on a fixed monthly schedule.
Follow clicks, conversions and earnings in real time.
How it works
An advertiser applies for access from the Marketplace menu in their Trackdesk account. After approval, our team sets up the listing with them.
When the listing goes live, a dedicated affiliate named Trackdesk Marketplace is created in the advertiser's account. All marketplace traffic is tracked under it.
Affiliates sign up at marketplace.trackdesk.com, find the offer and apply to promote it.
Approved affiliates promote the offer with their tracking links. Clicks and conversions are tracked in Trackdesk in real time.
Each month, the advertiser validates the previous month's conversions and pays for the approved ones, and Trackdesk pays out the affiliates.
Who does what
Advertiser: defines the offer terms and validation criteria, validates conversions, and pays for approved conversions.
Affiliate: promotes offers according to the offer terms, sends genuine traffic, and keeps records of traffic sources.
Trackdesk: reviews advertisers and affiliates, manages listings, collects advertiser payments, pays out affiliates, and steps in when suspicious activity is reported.
The monthly cycle
For conversions generated in a calendar month:
By the 10th of the following month: the advertiser reviews conversions in their own Trackdesk account and raises any they want checked with Trackdesk. Conversion statuses in the marketplace follow the advertiser's account.
By the 15th: the advertiser pays for approved conversions.
By the 20th: Trackdesk initiates affiliate payouts.
Example: September conversions → validated by October 10 → paid by October 15 → affiliate payouts initiated by October 20.
All marketplace settlements and payouts are processed in USD.
