If you’re participating in a Later campaign with affiliate deliverables, you’ll need to create a free Later Creator account and connect it to Later. This ensures accurate tracking and timely payouts for your well-earned commission!
This article explains what Later Creator is and walks you through the account connection process.
What is Later Creator?
Later Creator is a sub-affiliate network, meaning they partner with multiple affiliate networks to offer brands access to a wide range of affiliates through one interface. It also allows creators (like you!) to access multiple brands' campaigns from within one platform.
Later has partnered with Later Creator to streamline the process of creating, distributing, and tracking affiliate links as campaign deliverables. Learn more about Later Creator

Connect Your Later Creator Account
You can connect your Later Creator account to Later as follows:
- Navigate to the relevant campaign manager, or—if you haven’t applied to the campaign yet—the campaign application link that was sent to you via email
- You’ll need to log in to Later to confirm your identity before accessing the application—this also allows us to auto-fill any previously information you’ve shared with us
- If you’ve already applied to a campaign, you can still use its application link—it will automatically direct you to the campaign manager instead
- Scroll down to the Account Connections section of the campaign application or campaign manager
- Under Later Creator Account, select Select Later Creator Account
- Select your existing Later Creator account (if you’ve already authenticated it previously), or select Log In or Create a Free Later Creator Account to add a new one:
-
In the Later Creator pop-up window, either log in to your existing Later Creator account, or create a new one
- Not seeing the Later Creator window? Ensure pop-ups are allowed on your browser, or try again from an Incognito/private browsing window
Important: If you have multiple Later Creator accounts, ensure you select or log in to the correct one. Your connected Later Creator account for the campaign can’t be changed after your application has been submitted—this ensures affiliate data is attributed correctly. - Once connected, you’ll be directed back to the campaign application window where you’ll see your Later Creator account listed
- Click Next to proceed with the campaign application
View Your Affiliate Links
You can view and copy your affiliate links from within your campaign manager:
- Navigate to the campaign manager for the relevant campaign
- You can also use the campaign application link sent to you via email (if you’ve already applied to the campaign, it will automatically direct you to the campaign manager instead)
- Scroll down to the Affiliate Links section
From here, you can view and copy your affiliate links, as well as check on their performance (including clicks, conversions, and commission):
Performance data is updated every 24 hours. You can also click the information icon on the right side to review the commission rates associated with that specific link.
Add Your Payment Information
Affiliate commission payouts are handled by Later Creator, not Later Influence™ (formerly Mavrck). Once you’ve started earning commission, add your payment information in Later Creator to ensure timely payments.
In the campaign manager, select the Add Payment Information button under Affiliate Links > Commission Payments:
You’ll be redirected to Later Creator’s platform to enter your payment information. For more details, refer to these resources from Later Creator:
[Optional] Create Product Collections in Later Creator
Later Creator’s MyShop feature allows you to promote multiple products at once within a curated collection, similar to a storefront. Each MyShop collection can have a cover photo and include as many product links as you’d like:
MyShop collections are created in Later Creator, but you can use the affiliate links from your campaign manager in Later for each product to ensure proper tracking and attribution. To learn more, see the MyShop section of Later Creator’s Help Center.
