Become a Publisher on PepperJam Exchange

Affiliate marketing publishers are essential for the success of all campaigns our advertisers promote. Our publishers promote online coupons as well as in-store promotions for our advertiser’s products and services. When a sale or action is converted by an affiliate website, that affiliate marketer earns a commission. PepperJam Exchange tracks all affiliate websites to provide our publishers with accurate and transparent details on commissions earned.

PepperJam Exchange works with some of the most trusted brands in commerce. By becoming an affiliate marketing publisher with Pepperjam Exchange, you will be able to leverage our omni-channel retailing opportunities as well as revenue tools not available to other affiliate marketing networks. By becoming an affiliate website with PepperJam Exchange, you’ll be a publisher with an affiliate network personally connected to PayPal and strategic partnerships within eBay Inc.
