To be able to apply to a program you will need to have an approved Channel in the Adtraction platform.

Find a brand

There are two ways to discover brands within the Adtraction platform, you can browse the brand directory from the brands section in the left side menu or you search for a specific brand in the global search field.

Search for a brand

Use the global search at the top of the left-hand menu if you have a specific brand in mind.

Simply search for the brand and if the brand you are looking for is active with Adtraction you will be able to visit their program page, by clicking on the brand, where you can apply to their program.

If a brand doesn’t appear in search, they may not currently be active with Adtraction.

Browse for brands

To browse for brands, navigate to the brands section in the left menu. Here, you can use filters like Market or Category to discover new brands that fit your niche.


Apply to a brand

On the brand’s presentation page, you will see a drop-down menu, select the channel you want to use to promote this brand and click on the "Apply to promote" button.

A prompt will appear asking you to accept our Partner agreement. You must read and accept this for the application to be submitted.

Click on the button “Agree & apply” and your application will be sent to the brand.


What happens when you’ve applied to a brand

Once you submit your application, it is sent directly to the brand for their team to review.

Important: Adtraction does not review or approve these applications. The decision rests entirely with the brand.

How long will it take for the brand to review my application?

The review time varies for each brand. Typically, you can expect a decision within 1-7 business days. However, this can sometimes take longer (up to a couple of weeks) depending on the brand's internal resources.

What if my application is taking a long time?

If you haven't heard back after two weeks, the brand is likely processing a high volume of requests.

Since the decision-making process is managed by the advertiser, Adtraction cannot speed up individual applications or approve them on the brand's behalf. We recommend browsing the brand Directory and applying to other programs in the meantime.


After the brand review - approved or declined

You will be notified by email as soon as the brand has reviewed your application with the decision the brand has made.

Approved application by the brand

If your application is approved, you will receive a confirmation email. You can then get your tracking links, find creative assets, and start promoting the brand.

Declined application by the brand

If the brand declines your application, you will receive an email notification. This decision is final and it is unfortunately not possible to re-apply to that brand.

If you get declined by the brand we recommend you browse the brand directory to find other brands that suit your audience.
