Most of you will know we’ve got an affiliate program that’s used by literally thousands of websites around the country. Many of these affiliates use Skiddle’s event listings, some of them enable users to buy tickets whilst others simply use a Skiddle banner with their unique affiliate tag pointing back to Skiddle. Whichever way you choose to engage with Skiddle’s affiliate program, it’s an easy way for website owners to make some additional revenue.

Where are we up to?

We’re in the middle of the Festival and Ibiza seasons at the moment and to coincide with this we’ve got a wide range of new artwork for you to use on your site to bring a bit of Skiddle colour into your lives. If you’re an affiliate, you can find our new banners here: http://www.skiddle.com/affiliates/banners.php
