Hello there my fitness focused sea changers. With over 4 million searches each month on the term fitness alone, online sales within this industry have been steadily rising over the past few years. This makes it a very promising field of entry for affiliate marketers and industry professionals keen to ply their trade in an online world. So with that, I have decided to chip in for the assist with an outline of 12 of the best fitness affiliate programs to spin this year.

Now, before we begin, fitness is a huuuuuge niche on its own so choosing just 12 was not an easy task. To be honest, at the end of the day, I have chosen them simply by looking at:

• Commission rates
• Payment terms
• Cookie duration
• Application processes
• Affiliate/Marketing materials provided

I have then tried to find a diverse range that covers most aspects of selling fitness programs online.

Others

Now, as I have mentioned, the fitness niche is massive and I have chosen the 12 above to give you an insight onto what there is and how it all works. That is not to say that there aren’t others out there that are as good, or fit closer to your own niche as well (see next section). If you are looking for branding, you can also find affiliate programs from some of the major brands including (and again – a very small cross section):

• Nike
• FitBit
• Garmin
• Under Armour
• Lorna Jane
• Lulumon

To locate, simply type ‘brand affiliate‘ into your favourite search engine.

How to find your own affiliate programs

As discussed above, as fitness is such a large niche, you may need to find affiliate programs that better suit what it is that you are trying to do within this space. Luckily for us, there is a simple way to find these programs online. All you need to do is enter “affiliate: niche type” into your search engine. (obviously substituting ‘niche type‘ for whatever product it is that you are choosing to sell).

Below are some examples:

Or targeted sports:

Or even a particular exercise type:

There are affiliate programs for everything else such as weightloss, diet, Pilates, cardio exercise and so on. Once you have completed your searches, you can search through and find programs that:

• Relate to your niche/problems that you are solving.
• Have quality products – your brand can be severely damaged if you promote poor quality product.
• Have solid payment and customer service arrangement.
• Pay decent commissions.
• Have good testimonials covering commission payouts and quality of product.

In most cases, you will need to apply for the program before you are allowed to promote their products – don’t take this step lightly or you will be rejected. Affiliate programs will generally want to know:

• Your website name.
• Traffic levels.
• Why you want to join – (so I can make money by selling your fitness products is unfortunately not generally a good enough answer).
• How you plan to promote their products.
