If you're looking for an affiliate platform... keep looking, trust me. It's been nearly a year since I signed on with SkimLinks. I will preface this by saying they make 2 things clear in their TOS: (1) You must reach a certain $ threshold before they will pay out, and; (2) There may be an extended wait time due to SkimLinks waiting for merchants to pay them.
That being said, it's been just shy of a year. NOTHING in my reports lists any payment from ANY merchant that I've accumulated commission for. When I reached out to SkimLinks support, it took them a full THREE WEEKS to even respond. Even then, the response was a two-line form letter that said my request would be forwarded to the appropriate team and they would get back to me. That was THREE MONTHS ago. Crickets. Signing up with them is super easy, and their interface is very user-friendly - but there's NO POINT in wasting your time when SkimLinks isn't the slightest bit interested in paying you for your work. What may have once been a reputable company is basically a scam at this point. I shifted to publishing with ShopStyle a few months ago and I've already had one nice payment hit my account. Steer clear of SkimLinks.
