Dear Bloggers,

I wanted to let bloggers who write about retirement planning, wealth management, investing, 401k, and budgeting that Personal Capital is expanding their affiliate program. I’ve been an affiliate since 2012, and I consulted at their marketing department between 2013 – 2015 to help grow their affiliate business. Therefore, I am intimately aware of how awesome their affiliate program is.

New affiliates earn a very healthy $50 – $100 per sign-up who aggregates $100,000 worth of investable assets onto the Personal Capital dashboard e.g. IRA, Roth IRA, CDs, savings, rollover 401k, even a standard 401k, which can’t be managed. One of the reasons why they can pay so well is because they have their own affiliate platform with HasOffers. HasOffers charges Personal Capital a set low monthly fee. If Personal Capital signed up via CJ.com, FlexOffers.com, Impactradius, or other affiliate platforms, they would have to pay them 20% – 35% of the total affiliate payout each month.

Paying $250/month to HasOffers to use their software is much cheaper than paying $50,000 a month to CJ.com if they have a $200,000 a month affiliate payout program.

If you sign up directly with PC via HasOffers, you will not only get a higher payout than what you would be getting at FlexOffers and other places, but you’ll have much better insights into the clicks, click through rates, posts that are converting, and access to Michael. It’s much better to develop a relationship straight with the source who is paying, rather than through a sub-affiliate.

The Personal Capital affiliate program is one of the main reasons why I decided to take a leap of faith to work online in 2012. The revenue generation is incredible given the synergies the product has with my content. Personal Capital is also one of the reasons why I felt comfortable buying another $1M+ house in SF in 2014.

If you are interested, you can SIGN UP HERE. Tell them that Sam from Financial Samurai sent you. Because I started Financial Samurai in 2009, and it now has over 1 million organic pageviews a month, they along with readers trust my judgement. I wouldn’t recommend a product I do not believe will add value to you and your readers.

Remember, making successful affiliate income takes effort and highlighting the right products that are congruent with your content. If you can find a great product like Personal Capital, it practically sells itself. I really recommend bloggers move away from direct advertising, which not only has a potential to hurt your site, but is definitely not scaleable or passive.

Regards,

Sam
