Does Paizo have an affiliate program?

[Doug Poirier]

I have a website without an e-store. Rather than reinvent the wheel we are looking for a strategic partnership with an existing e-store. There are many sites out there with affiliate programs but I find Paizo to be among the most professions. If you do have an affiliate program what is your process? If not would it be something you would consider?
Thanks,
Doug

We'll consider it, but it's not something we're planning for the immediate (or even near) future.

Put me, and the rest of us at the PathfinderWiki on this petition as well. Getting some little kickback from Paizo for directing sales here could certainly help us with site upkeep costs, etc.

We have been talking about this almost since we started paizo.com. I wish there was an easy way to implement this, but there isn't. It is on Gary's list, but not near the top right now (Pathfinder Society and wishlists for Xmas are at the top, along with some stuff we have to do for VISA and Mastercard to continue to take credit cards).

There has been almost four years since this thread was started. Is Paizo any closer to being able to offer an affiliate program?

A conventional affiliate scheme, that pays in cash, would probably be best for most people, but even a scheme that gives credits, that can be used to buy items from the Paizo store could be useful for some organisations.

I have no idea how useful an affiliate program would be to Paizo, but Drive Thru RPG has a great program that is used by many publishers, including myself, and surely brings in many sales. I'd love to see Paizo implement such a program in the near future as it would give me a good reason to advertise Pathfinder products directly from this site, rather than from other retailers who don't offer the same range of products but do have an affiliate program.

Yes, please, Paizo, look into an affiliate program in the near future. While I'm just beginning my gaming blog, I would love to link to you over Amazon or some such. I'm already set up with OneBookshelf (RPGNow/DriveThruRPG, etc.), and I know that is a very sucessful program on both sides. I'd be happy even if it was just for Paizo credit, and earned me no more than the cost of a digital flip-mat a year ;)
