How it works

  1. 1
    Apply below. Small audiences are welcome. We read every application and reply by email.
  2. 2
    Get your link. It looks like useladle.com/r/yourname and opens a page that says you recommended useLadle.
  3. 3
    Share it your way. A video, a post, a line in your blog's recipe card. Just label it as an ad or affiliate link.
  4. 4
    Get paid monthly. We send your earned fees by PayPal each month.

Questions

Do I need a big following?

No. This program was made for smaller food creators. What matters is that your audience cooks at home and you'd genuinely recommend the app.

What if my followers download the iPhone or Android app?

Your link credits people who sign up on useladle.com through it. They can use the apps afterward. App Store purchases and people who only ever install the app without visiting your link can't be tracked, so we can't pay for those. The full terms spell out exactly what counts.

How do I disclose it?

Add #ad or "affiliate link" to every post that shares your link, in the post itself rather than only in your bio. In videos, say it or show it on screen.

When do I get paid?

Once a month, by PayPal, for the fees earned the previous month.
