Why Join the BoatUS Affiliate Program?

Successful affiliate marketing starts with promoting an offer that is relevant to your audience. If your website focuses on boating, marine activities, or the outdoor lifestyle, a BoatUS affiliate partnership can complement the content you already publish.

The program allows you to earn extra income at no cost to you. It is supported by BoatUS, the nation’s most trusted association of recreational boaters.

Publishers can use a banner ad and personalized link to introduce visitors and social media followers to BoatUS Membership. This makes the program easy to incorporate into relevant content without requiring you to sell or fulfill a physical product.

Who Is the Program For?

The affiliate program is intended for websites covering boating, marine interests, or the outdoor lifestyle. It may be a natural fit for publishers whose audiences include recreational boaters, anglers, paddlers, sailors, and water sports enthusiasts.

Relevant publisher topics may include:

  • Recreational boating and boat ownership
  • Fishing and time on the water
  • Sailboat, pontoon, and kayak content
  • Water sports and on-the-water recreation
  • Boat parts, maintenance, and marine electrical topics
  • Boating safety equipment, including life jackets
  • Gear such as trolling motors and towable tubes

These subjects are examples of content areas that may attract a boating audience. The BoatUS commission described on this page applies specifically to new membership purchases made through an affiliate’s website, not to purchases of boat parts, safety equipment, or other marine products.
