Join the network
Two steps to go from curious to approved affiliate.
Sign Up as an Affiliate
Head to /join and fill in your name, email address, and how you plan to promote. This takes under two minutes. No resume, no phone call, no gatekeeping.
Tell us a bit about your audience — blog, YouTube, TikTok, real estate newsletter, whatever. The more specific you are, the faster the approval.
Wait for Approval (Usually 24–48h)
Our team reviews applications manually. We're looking for real promotion channels, not spam accounts. Once approved, you'll receive an email with your affiliate ID and a link to your dashboard.
During the wait, your application lands in /affiliate-pending status — a holding page so you know you're in the queue.
Find, link, and share
Browse real housing listings and turn them into tracked affiliate links.
Browse Manufacturer Listings
Log into your affiliate dashboard and open the Directory. You'll see all participating manufacturers — tiny home builders, prefab companies, dome builders, modular housing brands, and more.
Each listing shows the brand name, earning rate, listing description, and price range. Commission rates are set per manufacturer and displayed on your dashboard after approval — browse to find the listings that pay best for your audience.
| Category | Commission | Avg. Home Price Range |
|---|---|---|
| Tiny Homes | Set per manufacturer | $25,000–$80,000 |
| Prefab / Modular | Set per manufacturer | $60,000–$200,000 |
| Dome / Geodesic | Set per manufacturer | $30,000–$120,000 |
| Container Homes | Set per manufacturer | $40,000–$150,000 |
Generate Your Tracked Affiliate Link
Click "Get Link" next to any listing. ClickBridge generates a unique short link that contains your affiliate ID. Every click on this link is permanently attributed to your account.
Share Your Links With Your Audience
Paste your affiliate links anywhere your audience lives: blog posts, YouTube descriptions, newsletters, Instagram bio, TikTok links, Reddit threads, Pinterest boards, or a dedicated resource page on your site.
The best-performing affiliates embed links inside genuine content — a review, a comparison post, or a "best tiny homes under $50K" roundup. Hard-selling drives away buyers; helpful content converts them.
Clicks become commissions
Here's how ClickBridge turns a link click into money in your account.
How Click Tracking Works
When someone clicks your link, ClickBridge logs the click: timestamp, your affiliate ID, the listing, and a session token. The buyer is then redirected to the manufacturer's page — the whole process takes under 100ms.
Your dashboard shows real-time click data: total clicks, unique visitors, and click-through rate per listing. No waiting 24 hours for stats.
Completed Sales Only — No Lead Payouts
Affiliates earn commissions on completed sales only. Clicks, inquiries, and form submissions do not trigger a payout — ever.
Commission Structure Explained
Each listing shows your earning rate — the commission YOU receive per completed sale. Rates vary by manufacturer and are displayed on your dashboard after approval, so you can pick the listings that pay best before you share a single link.
| Commission Type | How It Works | When You Earn |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage | Percentage of completed sale price | After sale closes AND ClickBridge receives manufacturer payment |
| Flat Rate | Fixed dollar amount per completed sale | After sale closes AND ClickBridge receives manufacturer payment |
Getting Paid — Payout Schedule & Methods
ClickBridge processes payouts via PayPal on a rolling basis after commissions are confirmed. Commissions are paid after the sale closes AND ClickBridge receives payment from the manufacturer. ClickBridge does not advance commissions. Minimum payout threshold is $50.
| Step | What Happens | Timeline |
|---|---|---|
| Sale closes | Buyer signs purchase agreement with manufacturer | Day 0 |
| Manufacturer pays ClickBridge | ClickBridge receives payment — this is required before any payout | Varies by manufacturer |
| Fraud review | Fraud check + sale verification | 7–14 days after payment received |
| Commission approved | Amount added to your pending balance | After review clears |
| Payout sent | PayPal transfer initiated | Next processing cycle |
| Funds cleared | Money in your PayPal account | 1–3 business days |
FTC Disclosures — What You Must Do
The FTC requires all affiliate marketers to clearly disclose when they earn commissions from links. This is not optional. Failure to disclose can result in fines and removal from the ClickBridge network.
The rule is simple: whenever you include an affiliate link, say so. Clearly. Before the link, not buried in a footnote.
| Channel | Acceptable Disclosure |
|---|---|
| Blog post | "This post contains affiliate links. I earn a commission if you make a purchase." |
| YouTube video | Verbal disclosure at start of video + in description |
| Instagram caption | #ad or #affiliate at the START of caption, not buried at end |
| Newsletter | "Some links below are affiliate links." near top of email |
| TikTok | Verbal disclosure + on-screen text |
