ReTarget.gg vs. classic affiliate networks.
Traditional affiliate networks were built for clicks. ReTarget.gg was built for the moments those clicks can't convert — blocked, declined, and out-of-region sessions.
Quick verdict
Use a classic network for in-region traffic. Use ReTarget.gg for the traffic the rest of the funnel rejects.

Comparison FAQ
Comparison questions
Is ReTarget.gg a replacement for my existing affiliate network?
No. Most publishers run both. Use the classic network for in-region clicks and ReTarget.gg for the blocked, declined, and out-of-region moments those networks ignore.
Why prepaid balances instead of net-30 invoicing?
Prepaid balances mean campaigns can launch immediately, no credit check or onboarding back-and-forth, and publishers know revenue is funded before clicks are bought.
Do I need contracts with advertisers?
No. Advertisers fund their account, publishers install the script, and the network handles eligibility and settlement.
