Playbook · Affiliate link drops
“Link?” comments get the configured URL.
Attach a clear “LINK” keyword to shopping content so eligible matching comments can receive one private reply with the relevant URL.
Capabilities
The trigger
“Comment LINK” — or catch the organic “link?” comments themselves.
The roundup
One DM with everything in the reel — links, codes, sizes.
Queued delivery
Eligible matches are paced and may be skipped or rejected.
Interaction contacts
A contact record is not a buyer record or marketing permission.
Older hauls
Keep the automation active for new comments; re-trigger is recent recovery.
Disclosure required
Disclose in the content, use Meta’s label when required and disclose beside the DM link.
Why is timing everything for affiliate content?
A keyword automation can reduce the time spent copying the same roundup URL. DM Now does not guarantee delivery timing, clicks, purchases or commissions. Measure those outcomes through your permitted link and affiliate-network analytics.
How do serious affiliate creators structure it?
Use a clear keyword and a media-specific reply where needed. Make the material connection clear in the Reel or post, use Instagram’s Paid partnership label when applicable, and place a plain-language disclosure beside the DM link. Follow current network and jurisdiction rules. Do not treat the contact record as permission for a later drop.
Frequently asked questions
- Do affiliate networks allow links in DMs?
- DM Now can transport a text URL, but each network sets its own placement, redirect and disclosure terms. Verify current rules. Disclose the relationship clearly in the content and close to the DM link; “affiliate link” alone may be unclear.
- Can one automation carry different links per reel?
- Attach a separate automation per Reel with that Reel’s roundup, or use one general collection-page URL. Compare clicks in the permitted destination analytics.
- How does this work with Amazon storefronts or LTK?
- DM Now can carry the URL. Verify that Amazon, LTK or your network permits DM placement and any redirect shortener you use. A DM Now short link counts redirects only and does not attribute orders or commissions.
- What does this cost me per month?
- Free includes unlimited automations with monthly limits of 1,000 DMs and 1,000 new contacts. Pro removes those application quotas; affiliate-network fees, Meta constraints and delivery failures remain.
