The Awin Group\u2019s new President Adam Weiss<\/a> answers your burning questions about the future of ShareASale.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u201cI heard ShareASale is going away this summer.\u201d <\/strong><\/h3>\n

I\u2019m aware there is industry and competitor chatter
\nincorrectly stating that Awin is getting rid of ShareASale this summer. I can
\ntell you with 100% certainty that Awin is not<\/em> sunsetting ShareASale this
\nsummer. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat is your plan for ShareASale
\nlong term?\u201d<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A single network solution
\nhas always been the objective since Awin acquired ShareASale in 2017. This will
\ncontinue to be an internal focus so we can ensure the Awin platform fully
\nsupports the affiliate marketing needs of every customer.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat does this mean for me as a ShareASale client?\u201d <\/strong><\/h3>\n

Right now, nothing. In 2025 when it is time to upgrade, we
\nwill be providing you with a seamless experience, simplifying the process to
\njust a few clicks. This allows you to concentrate on what matters \u2013 driving
\nmore sales and revenue for your business in the affiliate channel.<\/p>\n

Rest assured, we are committed to delivering everything
\nyou\u2019ve requested from ShareASale on the Awin platform, and more. This includes
\na user-friendly interface, enhanced reporting, superior affiliate quality, more
\nadvertiser partnerships, improved tracking, and global expansion opportunities.<\/p>\n

I am a ShareASale merchant\u2026.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

You will not need to install additional tracking or worry
\nabout moving your publishers over, we will handle that for you. There are
\nadditional tracking elements on Awin like in-app tracking and first-party
\ncookie tracking available to you, but this is not required for the transition. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a ready to discuss an early upgrade to the Awin<\/a> platform now, we\u2019d love to talk to you. <\/p>\n

I am a ShareASale affiliate\u2026.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

No need to worry about swapping out tracking links or re-joining your ShareASale advertisers\u2019 affiliate programs on the Awin platform, we are going to handle that for you. <\/p>\n

\u201cIs there a date when this will happen?\u201d<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The best I can tell you is it will be sometime in 2025. But
\nI can guarantee that when there is a definitive timeline to share, you will
\nhear it from us first. I cannot stress enough that we will communicate
\nproactively to you, and we will be mindful of timing. And once we have a single
\nnetwork solution and definitive timeline for your upgrade, we still will not
\nimmediately sunset ShareASale as these transitions take time.\u00a0 <\/p>\n

\u201cWhat features exist on Awin that would be a reason to upgrade?\u201d<\/strong><\/h3>\n

This year alone we\u2019ve launched 19 new feature releases<\/a> on
\nthe Awin platform, all centered around helping you reach further and grow
\nfaster. <\/p>\n

So whether you\u2019re wanting to:<\/p>\n
