total newbie here and honest question:

why would I recommend a product that I haven't used? won't it be cheating my viewership?

jiteshghanchi
Hey, thank you for asking. I believe it's not ethical to recommend a product one hasn't used before. However, my aim is to assist creators or anyone in finding products they can use and relate to. If they find them good enough, they can recommend them to their audience.

This is very important and missing in your product workflow I think .. to get these products (buy/sample?) before affiliation.

jiteshghanchi
If they do not want to provide recommendations, they can opt for placing ads in content similar to AdSense in a blog or video.

I hope you know the difference between recommendations and ad placements.

Does TapRefer receive commission when new users sign up for listed affiliates or sales are made through referred affiliates programs?
jiteshghanchi
Currently, TapRefer only earns a commission from six featured affiliate programs. However, we only receive a commission if the user signs up for a paid subscription to use that product. If someone becomes an affiliate or refers a user, we do not earn any commission.

Asking for notification permissions as soon as I open the page doesn't look good tbh.
