Affiliate Automation FAQBefore you ask on Telegram.

Forty-five straight answers on accounts, networks, blast speed, WhatsApp, the Telegram Forwarder and pricing — the same questions we answer on the help bot every single day. No fine print, no "contact sales".

01 / GETTING STARTED

Accounts, setup & first steps.

Q1Do I need my own affiliate accounts?
Yes — and that's the entire point. You plug in your own Amazon tag, Flipkart ID, Myntra ID and your EarnKaro, Admitad, Cuelinks and other network tokens, so every converted link carries your ID. All commission tracks to your own network accounts and every payout lands with you directly. Affiliaters is the automation layer, never a middleman taking a cut.
Q2How long does setup take?
Minutes, not hours. Add your affiliate IDs, connect your Telegram channels and other platforms, set your shortener, replacers and blacklist once — done. From then on, every deal you convert or forward uses those settings automatically, forever.
Q3Do I need to keep my laptop or phone on?
No. Affiliaters runs in the cloud, 24×7. Close the laptop, put the phone on charge, take a proper holiday — the Telegram Forwarder keeps watching your source channels and posting converted deals while you're offline. The 2 AM loot doesn't wait for you, and it doesn't have to.
Q4How fast does a deal actually go out?
One blast reaches every Telegram channel and WhatsApp group on your plan in seconds. End to end, a deal you share — or one the forwarder picks up from a source channel — is typically live everywhere within seconds. Your deal is live while it's still hot.
02 / NETWORKS & STORES

Which shops & networks work.

Q5Which stores and networks does Affiliaters support?
Amazon.in, Flipkart and Myntra directly, plus deal networks like EarnKaro, Admitad, Cuelinks, Shopsy and EarnPe — the live list is on the networks page. For short links you can use your own custom domain, Bitly or Cuttly. Setup guides for each one live on the networks page and in the docs.
Q6Do I need my own Amazon Associates account?
Yes. Affiliaters works with your own Associates tag — you add it once and every converted link carries it. Clicks and orders show up in your Associates dashboard, payouts go directly to you, and Affiliaters takes no cut.
Q7What is Amazon PA-API support?
PA-API is Amazon's official Product Advertising API. If you have your own PA-API keys, add them in the dedicated Amazon API Settings section inside the app and Affiliaters uses them for clean product data straight from Amazon — the right way to run Amazon link automation at scale.
Q8Does it handle amzn.to short links?
Yes. Send an amzn.to link — the kind SiteStripe and the Amazon app generate — and Affiliaters resolves it to the full amazon.in product URL, applies your Associates tag and shortens it again on your own domain, Bitly or Cuttly.
Q9Do I need my own Flipkart affiliate account?
Yes. Affiliaters converts links using your own Flipkart affiliate ID, so every commission tracks straight to your Flipkart affiliate dashboard. We're the automation layer, not a middleman — Affiliaters takes no cut of your earnings.
Q10Is Shopsy supported?
Yes. Shopsy, Flipkart's social-commerce platform, is one of the networks Affiliaters supports. Shopsy links in your messages convert to your own affiliate links the same way Flipkart links do.
03 / CONVERTING LINKS

Messages in, your links out.

Q11Does it work with whole messages, not just single links?
Yes. Send a full deal message — caption, emojis, price and multiple links from different stores — and the converter swaps every link in place with your affiliate link. The rest of the message stays exactly as you wrote it.
Q12Can one message contain links from multiple stores?
Yes. Send a whole deal message with Amazon, Flipkart and other store links mixed together — the Link Converter tags all of them in one go, with a toggle for convert-only or direct share. On the move? Convert straight from Telegram via @AffiliatersBot.
Q13Where does the commission go?
100% to your own affiliate accounts. You plug in your own affiliate IDs and tokens, so every converted link tracks to you. Affiliaters is the automation layer, not a middleman — it takes no cut of your commission.
04 / TELEGRAM & THE FORWARDER

Channels, bots & hands-off posting.

Q14How many Telegram channels can I post to on each plan?
Every plan includes Telegram, and the number of channels goes up with the plan — the entry tier is the starter and the top plan carries the highest limit. Groups count as destinations too, and one blast covers all of them. The current per-plan limits are on the pricing page.
Q15Do I need my own Telegram bot to use Affiliaters?
No. The public converter bot — @AffiliatersBot — works out of the box: send any link or deal message and the converted version comes straight back. If you want a branded bot running under your own name for you and your team, the private bot is included from the second tier up.
Q16Can Affiliaters watch source channels and post deals automatically?
Yes — that's the Telegram Forwarder. You log in with your own Telegram number (OTP login, 2FA supported), pick the source chats to watch, and it converts every link and posts each deal to all your channels and groups 24×7, images included. It's included in the top plan and available as an addon on any other plan.
Q17How does the Telegram Forwarder log in?
With your own Telegram number — you enter it, receive an OTP, and accounts with 2FA are supported as well. Then you pick your source chats and the Forwarder takes over: converts every link, applies your Replacers, respects your Blacklist, forwards images and posts to all your channels and groups automatically.
Q18Does it forward images too?
Yes. Deal images travel with every post, alongside the converted links, your Replacer edits and your Blacklist rules — so your post looks like the source's, minus their affiliate IDs.
Q19Is the Telegram Forwarder safe to use?
Straight answer: the Forwarder runs on your own Telegram account, so everything it does, it does as you. That's what makes it powerful — and why we say use it responsibly. Follow the forwarder guide in the docs, pick sensible source channels, and let it quietly do its job.
05 / WHATSAPP, X, FACEBOOK & DISCORD

The other places deals land.

Q20Is WhatsApp posting guaranteed?
Honest answer: no. WhatsApp posting is in beta and depends on external sources, so we can't promise it stays available forever. That's why it carries a * on every plan instead of hiding in the fine print — you should know exactly what you're paying for.
Q21How many WhatsApp groups can I post to?
It depends on your plan: WhatsApp starts one tier above the entry plan and the group limit rises from there. The entry plan doesn't include WhatsApp at all — it's Telegram, Facebook and Discord only. Every deal you convert is shared to all connected groups in one go.
Q22Which plans include WhatsApp automation?
Every plan except the entry one. The entry plan doesn't include WhatsApp. You can upgrade any time from the dashboard as your groups grow.
Q23Do I need my own keys to post on X (Twitter)?
Yes, and we'd rather say it here than let you find out after paying. X (Twitter) posting uses your own X developer keys — API key, API secret, access token and token secret. They're free to create on X's developer portal, take a few minutes, and you paste them into your account once. Facebook works the same way: you generate a long-lived token from your own free Facebook app — the docs guide walks you through it — and paste it once. See how every channel connects.
Q24Is Discord included in my plan?
Yes — Discord is available on every plan, entry tier upwards. Add your server under Social → Discord in your account and converted deals go there alongside your Telegram channels and WhatsApp groups. Same blast, one more destination, no extra cost.
07 / BROWSER EXTENSION

Converting on the product page.

Q33Does the extension cost extra?
No. It is free and it works with your existing Affiliaters account — the same account, the same affiliate IDs, the same shortener. See plans for what the account itself costs.
Q34Which shopping sites does it work on?
Amazon.in, Flipkart, Myntra, Croma and Shopsy — and nowhere else. Those five hosts are the only ones the extension is allowed to touch, alongside the Affiliaters API it talks to.
Q35Which browsers can I install it on?
Chrome, Edge, Brave and Opera — any Chromium browser that can install from the Chrome Web Store. There is no Firefox build. A Safari build for iPhone, iPad and Mac is in testing; its privacy policy and terms are already published.
Q36What does it collect?
Your login token, the product details on the page you are converting, and your own settings — nothing else. No browsing history, no ads, no analytics SDKs. The full list is in the extension privacy policy.
08 / PLANS & PAYMENT

Prices, addons & coupons.

Q37What do the plans cost?
Four plans, straight INR, paid by UPI with no autopay. The top plan has the Forwarder and WordPress already included; the current prices are on the pricing page. Full side-by-side comparison on the pricing page; coupons apply inside the dashboard.
Q38Can I upgrade my plan later?
Yes. Start with the plan that matches your channel count today and move up a tier whenever you outgrow it. Your networks, shortener, replacers and blacklist settings carry over; only your limits change.
Q39What do the addons need?
An active base plan. The Telegram Forwarder and the WordPress addon stack on top of a smaller plan — they are not standalone subscriptions. The top plan already includes both, so it never needs them.
Q40Where do I apply a coupon?
Inside the dashboard. Log in at app.affiliaters.in, open the pricing page at app.affiliaters.in/pricing, pick your plan and enter the coupon there before paying. Coupons can't be applied on this website.
09 / SUPPORT

Humans, bots & the docs.

Q41Where do I get help?
Ping @AffiliatersHelpBot on Telegram — a human answers — or email support@affiliaters.in. Setup guides live at docs.affiliaters.in, and every way to reach us is on the contact page.
Q42Where do I ask pre-sales questions?
Same place as support: @AffiliatersHelpBot on Telegram, or support@affiliaters.in. Worth a look at the pricing page first — most "which plan do I need" questions are answered there.
Q43I found a bug — where do I report it?
The Telegram help bot, with your account email, your plan and a screenshot of what went wrong. That combination usually gets it reproduced — and fixed — without another round of questions.
Q44Do you have documentation?
Yes — docs.affiliaters.in covers setup for every network and feature, including a step-by-step Telegram Forwarder guide. The FAQ page handles the rest.
