At a Glance: This article will help you understand the roles and responsibilities of an affiliate manager and what permissions are given to them.
Overview
Affiliate managers are individuals or teams responsible for managing an affiliate marketing program for a company or organisation. Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing strategy where companies collaborate with affiliates (publishers or marketers) to promote their products or services in exchange for a commission on each sale or action generated through their affiliate links.
