Affiliate Performance Benchmarking Report | January 2021

Each year, we generate millions of transactions for our brand partners across multiple verticals, through different affiliate networks. This gives us unique visibility of student shopping trends, which we compile into these monthly benchmark reports.

• Home and Utilities the fastest growing vertical in January, up 370% YoY
