What is Tiers in affiliate marketing

All countries in the world of affiliate marketing are conventionally divided into 3 groups (Tiers). No surprise, Tier 1 includes the most attractive countries for an advertiser, Tier 2 and 3 combine developing countries.

Economists classified three categories of countries: developed, developing, and third world. Their evaluation is based primarily on the economic development of the country. Affiliates divide countries into Tiers in a different manner. The focus was on the solvency of buyers and their average income.

One more point was also important: online payment. At first, it was only available in highly developed countries like the USA, Canada, Western Europe, and Japan. Online payments and cards were a novelty in other countries, but affiliate marketing was flourishing there. There are now many payment methods available to almost every part of the world: credit cards, Internet banking, SMS payments, etc. 

Also, the political situation influences getting into a particular group in the country and the peculiarities of its laws.

All these characteristics make it possible to divide countries into 3 main groups or Tiers.

If the offer is not tailored for a specific device, it will not be excessive to consider volumes for desktops, mobiles, and tablets.
