You will find out more about our services, what verticals we have, and how much you can earn with our help.

1. How do I get started with LosPollos?

We offer three options that will allow you to earn on traffic:

1. Get a link from the manager for the topic you are interested in and start sending traffic to it. When clicked, a smart algorithm shows the user only the offer that is most likely to be of interest to him. The method is suitable for both beginners and experienced webmasters.
2. Monetize on trafficback. This is relevant if you have any residual traffic left. Suitable for experienced webmasters who already work with affiliate programs or direct offers.

2. How much can you earn with LosPollos?

Many of our affiliates earn over $5,000 per month and there is no upper payout limit. But it is important to understand that the amount of income directly depends on the quality of traffic and conversions. On average, with good traffic sources, the payout per 1,000 impressions for Switzerland, for example, can easily be over $60.

In the beginning, we advise you to focus on achieving the minimum payout amount ($100) and scale up successful bundles in the future.

Beginners can try shareware sources – social networks, email newsletters, thematic forums, or their sites. Usually, the starting budget with any traffic exchange program starts at $100 and scales up further when a successful bundle is found.

You can withdraw your earnings from LosPollos every week. For the period of Monday to Sunday, income payments are made on Tuesdays from 16:00 to 24:00 (UTC+3) (if it has reached the minimum threshold of $100).

Please note, that to withdraw funds, payment details must be linked to the registered LosPollos account. Before your first withdrawal transaction, you should contact the Support Service to save this information and use it for subsequent payments.

7. Do you need special training?

A newbie often faces the question of whether to spend money on an affiliate marketing training course or to buy traffic to immediately begin driving traffic to offers offered by affiliate programs and learn with practice. It all depends on your starting level. The Internet offers a huge amount of free theoretical and practical materials. Regardless of the cost of the course, no training program can guarantee a quick and high income. Only a few of the graduates of online schools and courses do not go astray and become professionals as their success is more dependent on applied practice.

With LosPollos, each user has an account manager that is assigned to them, who can be contacted for help.

Today, the following verticals are available with LosPollos: Dating, Casual Dating, Mainstream, Crypto, Cams, Male Enhancement, Adult Games, and Gay Dating.
