Why I built it
I built this after discovering a $10,000 payout six months too late.
A partner owed me $10,000. I found the missing payout six months after it was due, after the company had gone bankrupt.
Other platform migrations broke tracking, detached my affiliate codes, and created repeated four-figure and occasional five-figure exposure.
I do not run ads on my site. Affiliate partnerships are a primary way the work gets funded. It was infuriating to put years into useful reviews and recommendations, then lose the compensation because no tool was watching the operational details.
Affiliate Guardian exists to make sure this happens to fewer publishers—and never goes unnoticed for six months.
Built by a publisher. For publishers.
WHAT HAPPENED
Payout due
The $10,000 payment was supposed to arrive.
No alert
Nothing surfaced when the payment did not appear.
Discovered six months later
The delay was found through manual review.
Company bankrupt
By then, the money was no longer collectible.
Tracking broke after migration
A partner platform changed; attribution disappeared.
Code detached from my account
The code still worked, but the sale no longer credited me.
How it works
Connect the evidence. See what deserves attention.
02
Check for revenue leaks
Scan links and compare codes, commission terms, and reporting history against their prior state.
03
Work the highest-value finding
Review the evidence and dollar model, confirm what is real, and address the leaks with the largest exposure first.

How this estimate works
We divide monthly affiliate revenue across your active programs, then model the selected issue range at one affected program-month per issue. It prioritizes review; it does not claim the money was lost or can be recovered.
Coverage
APIs where they exist. Daily reports and exports where they do not.
Report email and CSV delivery can be daily. Affiliate Guardian uses the source each program actually provides and shows its freshness instead of treating every source as equivalent.
| Source | Examples | Method | Timing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Network connections | Awin, Impact, CJ, Refersion, GoAffPro, Post Affiliate Pro, GrowthHero and Everflow | Direct connection | Based on each network’s reporting cadence |
| Scheduled reports | Daily or periodic report emails from networks and direct programs | Email ingestion | As soon as each report arrives |
| Exports | Amazon Associates and other programs that provide CSV reports instead of an earnings API | CSV import | Whenever an export is uploaded or delivered |
Least access by design
Affiliate earnings data is sensitive even when access is read-only.
Affiliate Guardian requests read-only scopes wherever a network offers them, encrypts each tenant’s credentials separately, and never returns stored credentials through the product. Read-only access limits what the system can do; it does not reduce how carefully the data is handled.
