Recurring affiliate programs for gaming creators.
A one-off commission is fine. A commission that pays every month the customer stays is far better. For gaming, the biggest recurring category is game server hosting, because players keep their servers running.
Why recurring wins
With a one-time program, every month starts from zero. With a recurring program, last month's referrals still pay this month, so your income compounds as your back catalogue of videos and streams keeps referring new customers. For a creator with evergreen content, that is the difference between a side hustle and a real monthly income.
The recurring programs worth joining
Game hosts are the standout: BisectHosting and Apex Hosting pay recurring commissions, and hosts on platforms like FirstPromoter often stack a first-month bonus with an ongoing recurring share. Browse them all, with the commission model for each, on the affiliate programs page.
Track recurring income properly
Recurring income is only useful if you can see it building. AffiliateLinksHub shows your available and pending balances across every host in one place, so you can watch the monthly total grow.
Track it all in one place: open your dashboard, or see the full list of game hosting affiliate programs and the way the tracking works.
