Ask Is it allowed to promote bundles with affiliate and non-affiliate products?

[Newman]

You can promote bundles that mix affiliate and non-affiliate products, but you must be clear about what you earn commission from. For example, if you review a skincare set where only one product is linked through your affiliate link, you should mention that. Some merchants may not allow their products to be bundled with items from competitors, so reading their rules is important. The main thing is to stay transparent and honest about what you promote. Have you seen any affiliate programs that restrict mixing products in bundles?

You can do it, but check the program rules first because some do not like their products grouped with competitors. They see it as promoting another brand right next to theirs. Go through the terms before you make any bundle. If something is unclear, just ask them directly.

Just tell people which products pay you and which ones do not. Hiding that information makes you look dishonest even when you are not breaking rules. Say something like "I get paid for this one but not that one." Most people are fine with you earning money from links.

Some programs ban bundling completely. Putting their item with something cheaper might make theirs look worse, so they just block all bundles. This is annoying when a bundle would actually help your audience, but those are their rules. Either follow them or switch to different products that let you bundle.

The products without affiliate links should still be useful. Do not add random stuff just to make the bundle bigger. If people buy based on what you say and half the items turn out useless, they will not listen to you again. Everything should have a reason for being there, commission or not.

Some merchants actually prefer bundles because it raises the total purchase value. A camera with a memory card and bag makes sense. The buyer gets everything needed in one go. Just avoid pairing their product with something that competes with what they sell.

First, be honest and let people know which items are affiliate links and which aren't. Don't make it look like you're earning on everything if you're not. Also, check the affiliate program rules so you don't break anything with pricing or bonuses. Bundles can actually be cool for your audience if they make sense and add value. As long as you're transparent, follow the rules, and don't try to trick anyone
