The Problem with Most Affiliate Programs

So… this happened.

You put in the work — creating content, sending traffic, converting leads — all through affiliate links that are supposed to pay out. But then? The company switches platforms, the links break, and the payout? Gone. No email, no warning, no money.

In this video, I’m talking about the real issue with most affiliate programs — and no, it’s not about low commission rates or tracking problems. It’s how creators get left behind when systems change. You could be just a few bucks away from the payout threshold, and it all disappears overnight.

This isn’t a one-time thing — it’s happened more than once. That’s why I’m sharing my experience, so you don’t get caught off guard.

Drop a comment if this has happened to you — and if you find this helpful, feel free to like and subscribe. Peace!
