title: BestAffiliatePrograms.cc Stats API
version: 1.0.0
description: 'A read-only, cite-friendly API over a verified directory of affiliate programs, each compared by network, published commission, cookie window, how it pays, requirements, and a MODELLED value per referral. Every figure traces to the program''s own affiliate page or a public network or aggregator listing. Programs whose terms were read only from CJ''s advertiser records, which CJ shows only to its publishers, are listed on the site''s program pages but left out of the dataset, the API and the MCP server: CJ''s API terms restrict redistributing its data. Requires an API key (a free tier with a daily limit, or Pro for volume): send it as ''Authorization: Bearer ''. Get a key at https://bestaffiliateprograms.cc/developers. The bulk dataset (https://bestaffiliateprograms.cc/affiliate-programs.json) and the MCP server (https://bestaffiliateprograms.cc/v1/mcp) are open and keyless.'
