# Get Your Link

> Find your unique referral link and discount code.

Every creator gets a personal referral link. Some programs also include a personal discount code. Both tie every click and order back to you.

## Where to find your link

Your link lives on your profile inside the brand's app. The brand's team can share it with you in two ways:

* **Via email.** Your welcome email includes your link.
* **From your profile inside the brand's workspace.** The brand can copy it from your **Overview** tab and send it over.

If your program also includes a discount code, it's shown next to the link.

## How the link works

* Someone clicks your link and lands on the brand's store.
* Afflo tags that visit to you using a tracking cookie.
* If they buy within the program's **attribution window** (the time a click stays "valid"), you earn the commission.

## How the discount code works

* Share your code anywhere your audience hears you (bio, podcast, live stream, email).
* When a shopper enters the code at checkout, the purchase attributes to you even if they didn't click your link.
* This is great for podcasts, newsletters, and offline channels where clicks are hard.

## Where to share

* Bio link on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X
* Pinned comment or description on long-form posts
* Newsletter footers and CTAs
* Shownotes for podcasts
* Story stickers and swipe-ups

## Tips

* Use the link consistently. One memorable URL beats ten variants.
* Mention the code clearly. "Use code JANE10 at checkout for 10% off" converts better than burying it.
* Don't shorten your link through a third-party shortener unless the brand supports it. It can break attribution.

## Troubleshooting

**The link looks long or odd.** That's normal — the extra characters are what tell Afflo which creator drove the click.

**A sale wasn't attributed.** The shopper may have clicked outside your program's attribution window, or cleared their cookies. Ask the brand's team to check.
