How do I know if my site, app, or social media channel is suitable for Skimlinks?

To join Skimlinks, you must operate a fully public platform with original, shopping-focused content and consistent traffic. To avoid an immediate 90-day re-application block, please verify that you meet our minimum article and privacy requirements before submitting your application.

The "Suitability" Self-Assessment

Please do not apply if you cannot confirm all four of these "Must-Haves":

1. Original Content: Your site features articles or reviews written by you. We automatically reject sites that scrape or aggregate content from other sources.
2. Sufficient Volume: You have at least 10 high-quality, original articles live on your site. Applications with fewer posts are denied for "Lack of Content."
3. Organic Traffic: Your site is fully launched and has a visible, active audience. We do not approve "Under Construction" or password-protected sites.
4. Public Profile: If applying with social media (Instagram/TikTok), your account must be set to Public. Private accounts are rejected instantly.

Resolution: Final Warning Before Submitting

• The 90-Day Rule: If your application is denied, you will be blocked from re-applying for 90 days. Use this time to build your site quality before hitting "Submit."
• No Manual Overrides: Our support team cannot bypass these technical requirements or expedite a rejected application.
• Verdict: If your site is less than 3 months old or has little content, the most productive action is to wait and improve your site first.

Restricted Platform Types

Skimlinks does not partner with the following:

• Adult, violent or illegal content.
• "Adware" or software that injects links without user consent.
• Coupon/Deal sites that lack original editorial content.
