Affiliate marketing for fintech.

FGV builds, fixes and scales affiliate programs for fintech and financial services brands. We have grown a mature program's monthly partner volume 6x for Current and taken Copper's new users up 3,000% in three months.

What does FGV do in affiliate?

We run the whole channel: strategy, partner sourcing, commercial terms, publisher relationships and performance management. For a new program that means standing it up; for a mature one it usually means an audit first.

  • Program strategy and setup
  • Partner and publisher sourcing
  • Payout and contract negotiation
  • Partner quality management
  • Performance reporting against goals and fintech benchmarks

When does a fintech need help with affiliate?

Two situations come up most. A new product needs acquisition volume fast, and affiliate is the quickest paid channel to scale on a cost-per-action basis. Or a mature program has stopped performing: volume flattens, low-quality partners creep in, and commercial terms drift out of date.

How do we fix a program that has stalled?

For Current, we audited the program, cut the low-quality partners, re-engaged high-potential publishers and rebuilt the commercial terms underneath it. Monthly partner volume grew 6x, payouts were renegotiated 45–70% lower, and 160+ custom contract terms were streamlined by 80%.

How do we scale a program fast?

For Copper, we sourced and stood up net new campaigns against aggressive goals and payout structures that kept moving. New users grew 3,000% in three months, and affiliate drove 30% of all new user acquisition.

Questions

Can FGV take over an existing affiliate program?
