F.A.Q.'s
What is the BlueStacks Influencer Program? How does it work?
The BlueStacks Influencer Program is a revenue-sharing program where you as our influencer partner drive traffic to a merchant’s website in exchange for referral commissions. When a visitor to your site clicks on the influencer link to our site and completes a BlueStacks download and/or Game Offer install, you get a commission for every game they install!
BlueStacks provides our influencers with tracking, reporting, prompt payments, and flexibility as the site expert in selecting the best game titles/offers for their gaming community.
Once you sign up for and are accepted to our program, you’ll be taken to the BlueStacks influencer portal where you’ll create your own personal and secure account. Here you can log in at any time to find the latest game offers, find out about commissions earned, and review how many clicks & installs you’ve influenced via our simplified color coded graph.
How do I get started?
Who can participate?
Anyone interested in making money gaming! However, we’re specifically looking for
- Twitch.tv streamers
- YouTubers with channels related to gaming, tech, entertainment and lifestyle
- Gaming or tech-related websites, blogs, forums
- Gaming or tech-related social accounts with large followings
- Large game- related email lists
- Gamer Social Media Gurus
Remember, success in our program is highly dependent on the relevant traffic you drive to influence app downloads and game offer installs.
Does it cost anything to participate?
No. There are no costs associated with joining our influencer program.
How much will I earn? How and when do I get paid? How are commissions paid?
How much you earn is completely up to you! As the community manager for your site, you must select offers on the platform that are relevant and traffic drivers. The more installs you get the more commission you earn.
Once the minimum payment threshold is met, affiliate partners are paid via wire transfer to the account on file or promptly via PayPal (no threshold required) every first of the month.
BlueStacks influencer commissions are paid out on a tiered system:
1,200 Installs/month
Custom CPIs
750 Installs/month
CPIs up to $12 depending on the offer and country
350 Installs/month
CPIs up to $9 depending on the offer and country
No Minimum
CPIs up to $6 depending on the offer and country
*You must maintain monthly installs at the specified amount to remain in the associated tier.
How are downloads/installs tracked from my site?
Once your application is accepted, you will receive access to a dashboard where you can generate unique tracking URLs per offer. Any installs generated via these URLs are tracked and reported in the dashboard and are attributed to your account within the calendar month reporting period.
BlueStacks records all transactions from your site in real-time, meaning that all clicks, downloads, and installs are reported within a 4-6 hour period post-action. The BlueStacks influencer dashboard has all the reports and other resources you’ll need to monitor your success.
I'm signed up, now what?
Once your application is approved, you will receive an email welcoming you into our affiliate program. It will include all the instructions you need to get started. If you’re ready to start adding offers to your site, check out the next section on adding offers to your site..
