Cuelinks Review – Best Indian Affiliate Program for Bloggers?

Are you struggling to make money with your blog? Does your blog have most of the Indian traffic? Then Cuelinks is only for you.  It is one of the best Indian Affiliate Programs which has a lot of renowned advertisers with the great commission. Affiliate Marketing is one of the best ways for bloggers to make money online. In this Cuelinks review article, we will read what this exactly is, what are different features & ways to integrate, revenue share & payout thresholds.

Before we move forward with the article, I hope you know about Affiliate Marketing. If you have not started it yet, you can read an article on why you should Start Affiliate marketing. You can rely on advertisement networks also but as per my experience, they do not help in earning more bucks. Google AdSense is quite a good network but getting approval is not a piece of cake. Though affiliate marketing requires more effort and a lot of patience, it will generate more bucks for you (even more than Google AdSense). (Affiliate Marketing generates 90% of my blog income. One of my reliable affiliate programs is ShareASale)

Cuelinks Review : Getting Started with Cuelinks


  • Campaign Explorer

Once your account is set up, you can log into Dashboard. You can go to the ‘Campaign Explorer’ tab and can see all the available campaigns here. You can search for any campaigns which you want to promote or with high commission rates.

Alternatively, Cuelinks will show New and Preferred Campaigns also to you so that you can easily choose, as shown below.

Now, you can find/click on any campaign and generate an affiliate link to the product you want to promote. Isn’t it great? I am showing an example of Amazon below so that you have some idea.

Just paste the Product URL in the URL field. You can also add Sub id but that’s optional. Click on ‘Generate Link’. It will give you your affiliate link. If you further wish to shorten it, select ‘Shorten URL’, it will give you a short link for that.

For Example:

URL: https://www.amazon.in/ (This can be any product link directly. Just to show I have given homepage link)

Generated Link: https://linksredirect.com/?pub_id=25413CL22890&source=linkkit&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.in%2F

Shorten URL: https://clnk.in/f5JK

If you click on the Shorten URL link, you will see that it is successfully redirecting to the Generated link itself.

So, you have got your affiliate link now. You can add this link anywhere in your blog, or social media, send in messages/ emails (w.r.t. program guidelines), etc.

2)  CueWidgets

Cuewidgets are one of the best features of Cuelinks. You can create widgets of your choice and can show them in your sidebar, within your posts, or any part of the blog. It allows you to select categories based on your audience and blog niche. You can see two Cuewidgets that I have created.

In order to create a new widget, click on ‘Create New’.

  • Give any Widget name for your reference
  • Select ‘Type of Widgets’. If you want a Deal Widget or Coupon Widget. (I am choosing the Coupon widget for example)
  • Select the category you want. (I’ve chosen Recharge)
  • You can see the widget preview on the left.
  • Select the Number of Products you want to show.
  • Select Widget Size (300*250, 300*600, 728*90)
  • Click on ‘Generate’ Button.
  • Copy the generated widget iframe code snippet.
  • Paste it wherever you want to show it in your blog.

Below is the cue-widget created:

3) CueWords

Cuewords is another great feature provided by Cuelinks. It helps in multiplying your earnings using In-Text monetization. Cuewords automatically add relevant links within the content. You get access to 1000+ campaigns from the leading companies and brands.

You can select the density of words you want to monetize. Plus, you can select the color of links as well to provide it native blog colors. It will help to generate additional revenue without degrading the g user experience. Isn’t it awesome? 🙂

Installing JavaScript

Installing Cuelinks is very easy. You just need to add the code on your website and all your normal links will automatically be converted into affiliate links on the fly. Once you have added the Javascript, enter your blog URL to check if JavaScript installation was done correctly or not.

4) Android SDK

Cue links offer CueApps facility to monetize your android apps. You can download Cuelinks SDK and install it in your Android app using 4 simple integration steps. Once it is installed, every user’s click will automatically redirect via your affiliate links on the fly.

Along with that, you get access to all the Offers being provided by Merchants that you can share with your targeted audience. Cuelinks has a great reporting interface (aggregate reporting) also where you can check all the clicks, transactions, and earnings based on various filters in a single dashboard.

Cuelinks Referral Program

Not only by driving sales but by referring others also you can earn huge money here. When you refer publishers to Cuelinks using your unique Cuelinks Referral link, you can earn a 25% commission of what your referrals earn for the next 3 months. Isn’t the referral program great?

Below is the snapshot of my referrals –

There are many ways to refer this program to other publishers – Sharing your referral link on social media, putting a banner on your blog, or writing an article about this.

Cuelinks Payment Threshold & Revenue Share


When we choose any affiliate network, other important things we tend to check are its revenue share & payment threshold. The good news is – Cuelinks works on 3:1 model. They will pay 75% of the commission to the publisher and 25% will be their share in whatever revenue you generate through the affiliate links you have created using them.

Cuelinks’ minimum payout threshold is only Rs. 500 which is very low as compared to other affiliate networks. So, you do not need to make much money in order to get paid. As soon as you cross 500, you will be paid. The networks make payments on time and as agreed. Cuelinks also offers payment directly to the Bank account. (I know you are eager to join this affiliate network now 🙂 ) I will share Cuelinks Payment proof soon.

Edit – Here is my Cuelinks Payment Proof

  • Hello brother this is owais khursheed here from india and i want to know more about cuelinks. will you pls tell me...

  • Never ever go to start your affiliate business with Cuelinks, they are just frauds & cheaters.
    You can run your campaign but never get your earnings in your account. I ran a few campaigns to check their authenticity but I have not yet received a single penny from my earnings.
    I kept following up their illiterate staff they keep saying that you will receive your money in two months but its been more than 4 months but there is no money credited into my account.

    So I request everyone who all are reading my review please do not get into this scam, it is only a trap that will waste your time & make you loose your money & motivation as well.

    If you want more clarity, feel free to reach me at vivek@shopiyapa.com, I will help you with real proofs which support my review.
