These are ten mainstream smartlink networks that affiliates frequently use and discuss in 2026, based on industry directories, affiliate forums and network documentation. The order is not a performance ranking: no one can rank smartlinks fairly without testing them on the same traffic. Use the list to build a shortlist, then test.
How we chose them
- They offer a smartlink or automated offer rotation for mainstream verticals.
- They are active in 2026, with recent user feedback in affiliate communities.
- They support postbacks and sub-IDs so you can optimise in your own tracker.
The networks
1. ClickDealer
A long-running CPA network with smartlink capabilities across mainstream verticals. Industry lists frequently cite its strength in sweepstakes, pin-submit, e-commerce trials, mobile games, dating and CPI campaigns. Good for buyers who want a large offer catalogue alongside the smartlink.
2. Zeydoo
A smartlink-first network described in affiliate guides as built for utilities, sweepstakes, finance, surveys and mobile offers, with automated smartlinks for mixed-geo traffic. Commonly used with push and pop traffic.
3. MyLead
A large affiliate network that offers many vertical-specific smartlinks (reportedly around 80) as well as individual CPA offers. Popular with publishers and social traffic as well as media buyers.
4. Mobidea
A mobile-focused network often recommended for mobile-heavy traffic in Europe and Latin America. Industry coverage indicates it has been repositioning around AI-driven tools; check its current product line before you start.
5. Adsterra Smartlink
Adsterra's SmartLink is a publisher monetisation product: a URL that sends each visitor to a relevant ad landing page, with publishers paid when users click and view ads. It suits publishers with social, link-in-bio or website traffic more than CPA-focused media buyers.
6. Trafee
A smartlink network built around automated offer optimisation, covering mainstream verticals such as sweepstakes alongside dating and adult. Affiliates report weekly payments.
7. Monetizer
A smartlink-first network with segmentation by traffic type, vertical and country, plus allowlists, blocklists and advertiser blocking. Reviewers note it is primarily a smartlink network, so building narrow custom funnels is harder.
8. LosPollos
Best known as a dating smartlink specialist, LosPollos also lists mainstream verticals such as e-commerce and lead generation, separate from its CPA marketplace. Expect a verification step before approval.
9. TraffCore
A smartlink platform focused on dating (mainstream and adult), sweepstakes and crypto offers, paid on CPL or CPS.
10. iMonetizeIt
A smartlink network whose offers skew towards dating but also cover broader mainstream verticals, with weekly payment options reported by users. Useful as a comparison point for dating-heavy mainstream traffic.
Comparison checklist
| Check | Ask the network |
|---|---|
| Verticals | Which smartlinks fit my traffic and geos? |
| EPC | What EPC do you see for my traffic type and top geos this month? |
| Tracking | Which sub-ID fields and postback macros are available? |
| Rules | Which traffic types are allowed or banned? |
| Payments | Minimum payout, frequency and methods? |
| Control | Can I exclude offers or see which offers converted? |
How to run a fair test
- Split the same traffic (same source, geo, device, time) evenly between two or three smartlinks.
- Run until each has a meaningful number of conversions — not just one day.
- Compare revenue per 1,000 clicks after fees in your own tracker, not the networks' dashboards.
- Keep the winner, renegotiate with the runner-up, and retest every few months — smartlink performance shifts as offers change.

FAQ
Which smartlink network pays the most?
It depends on your traffic. EPC varies by geo, device, traffic type and season. The only reliable answer comes from testing two or three networks on the same traffic.
What is a good EPC for smartlink traffic?
There is no universal benchmark. Compare EPC against your cost per click: a campaign is profitable when EPC is higher than your average CPC after all costs.
Can I use several smartlinks at once?
Yes. Many buyers split traffic by geo or vertical across networks, and rotate between smartlinks to compare.
