TopRanked.io Affiliate Partner Program of the Week — HealthTrader Affiliates FAQ

Most weeks, we usually do a quick review of a great affiliate program.

This week, I’m replacing it with a super quick FAQ.

Why?

Because the program is HealthTrader Affiliates. And we recently covered them in our HealthTrader Affiliates review edition about a month ago.

So why are we covering it again?

Simple — this week’s “affiliate news” opportunity (see below) is a really, really, really good match for HealhTrader Affiliates.

And so, I wanted to bring your attention to HealthTrader Affiliates before we covered it.

So here goes — a quick FAQ on HealthTrader Affiliates.

What Is HealthTrader Affiliates?

HealthTrader Affiliates is a “premium health CPA network” that connects affiliates with health, wellness, pharmacy, and beauty offers. (And lots of them.)

What Is HealthTrader Affiliates?

Once you sign up (free, relatively quick process), you gain access to multiple offers, tracking tools, and marketing assets (banners, links, templates…) to promote these merchant products. 

How does the HealthTrader Affiliates Commission Structure Work?

Simple. Most offers run on a CPS/rev share basis.

How Big Are the HealthTrader Affiliates Commissions?

Big. Mostly. At the low end, Pharmacy-style offers pay around 13–17%. At the high end, supplements and beauty products go as high as 40–50%.

What Payout Methods Do HealthTrader Affiliates Support?

Bank transfer, Wise, Skrill, or Paxum. Options depend on your account location, of course.

What Should I Watch Out For if Working With HealthTrader Affiliates?

HealthTrader Affiliates have some restrictions on traffic. Basically, no telemarketing, no unsolicited emails/spam, no fake traffic. Oh, and don’t go making any misleading claims. If you can manage that, then you’re probably good.

What Products Can I Promote With HealthTrader Affiliates?

If it’s health/wellness, then HealthTrader probably has it. Online pharmacies, weight-loss supplements, sexual health, hair loss, skincare, sports supplements, general wellness… if you can name it, HealthTrader probably has it.

Are There Geographic Restrictions?

Yes. Some HealthTrader Affiliates pharmacy offers only operate in regulated markets (e.g., UK, EU). Most other offers are usually more flexible.

Is HealthTrader Legit?

Yeah, of course it is. Otherwise, we’d never dedicate a chunk of our weekly affiliate digest to them.

Affiliate News Takeaways

This week’s big news is…

…thanksgiving.

Duh.

“But what’s Thanksgiving got to do with affiliate news?” I hear you say.

The answer is simple.

Regret.

Now, sure, there will be plenty of people who claim they regret nothing about their behavior over Thanksgiving and the upcoming festive season.

But, for most people, Thanksgiving marks the start of a death spiral that goes a little like this:

Ffffffiiiiiivvvvveeeee plates of beiiiggggeeeee… four office parties, three family dinners, two midnight fridge raids, and a New Year’s hangover while regretting everything they’ve eaten since Thanksgiving…

That’s the sort of regret I’m talking about — the regret that drives them to make New Year’s Eve resolutions that usually rhyme with words like witness, rioting, beatbox, and trim.

What am I talking about?

Fitness. Dieting. Detox. Gym.

You know, all the usual stuff people swear they’re gonna do when the clock strikes 00:00 on Jan 1, but they never end up sticking with for more than a month…

And that’s why I’m writing about Thanksgiving this week — it’s the countdown to one of the biggest seasonal affiliate opportunities out there, and I want ya’ll to cash in on it.

That is, of course, if you want… but no pressure.

So now we’ve got the broad brush strokes of what this is all about out of the way, let’s get to the specifics — the stuff that’s gonna sell like hotcakes this year.

Any guesses?

Well, here are a couple of health trends that have been ticking over nicely in 2025:

1. Functional food and beverage.
2. Emphasis on fiber intake.

The second one should be pretty self-explanatory. I mean, fiber’s fiber. Either you eat it, or you don’t. And, if you eat it, either you eat a lot of it, or a little.

But self-explanatory stuff aside, there is one thing to note — it’s starting to take some of the spotlight away from protein. And, it’s doing so for pretty much the same reason protein became king — high fiber diets are correlated with lower body weight.

Plus, fiber’s got one other thing going for it that an excess of protein definitely doesn’t…

But I digress.

The main point to take away here is that fiber is trending in pretty much the same way protein has been for years now. Albeit, it’s still a long way from dethroning protein.

Now, as for the second big trend — functional food — that’s where things get slightly more interesting.

While you might just think “functional food” is a synonym for “superfood” — another great health and wellness trend from days gone by — “functional food” isn’t quite the same beast.

So, what’s the difference?

In a nutshell, “functional foods” are basically anything that contains “trendy” stuff like adaptogens, nootropics, and probiotics.

Now, if you know anything about this space, then you’ll also know this all splinters off into a billion and one different niches. So, people can pick and choose their nootropics based on what they want help with.

To keep it all at a pretty high level for now, nootropics (e.g., lion’s mane, L-theanine, etc.) can, supposedly, help with stuff like memory, focus, and clarity. Adaptogens (e.g., ashwagandha, holy basil, etc.), on the other hand, can tackle other stuff like stress and high cortisol levels.

So, that’s the stuff that’s trending right now that you can actually sell (hello, HealthTrader).

But there’s one other thing I wanted to bring to this story before I finish up.

You see, while the upcoming post-holiday regret season is undoubtedly great for moving a ton of product fast, it still has a problem.

Most people doing the whole NYE resolution thing abandon. Fast.

And that means no follow-up sales… which is kinda a bit of a bummer if you’re going to go to the effort of finding and converting someone for a company.

And that’s what brings me to another big trend that’s going viral on TikTok right now.

“The Great Lock-In” trend.

The idea behind this trend is simple:

• Most people abandon their NYE resolutions fast.
• This is because they’re based on fantasies — delayed promises — not actions.
• So “locking in” is basically using the year-end as leverage to build up to the “new you”.
• You “lock in” by making small, incremental changes to your habits — pick an action, keep doing it, and it eventually becomes a habit.

That’s pretty much it.

And here’s the best bit — while it’s theoretically meant as a bit of a pre-NYE thing, there’s no reason you can’t ride the tail end of the trend. All you gotta do is tell people that it’s never too late to “lock in”.

That way, you give them the products they need, and the tools they need to actually stick with it.

Takeaway

The takeaway here is simple.

• We’re headed head-first into the biggest season for selling fitness/wellness/etc. Stuff.
• As always, there are “trends” which are more popular than others.
• We just gave you two of those trends.
• Now you can go and sell ‘em.

The only missing piece, of course, is what you’re actually going to sell.

Lucky for you, the Health Trader Affiliate Program has a bunch of stuff that’s perfectly on-trend.

Closing Thought

Landed on this meme today.

Thought it would make a good closing thought.

Not because I wanna say “if you’re stressed out, just stop caring”.

That would be wrong — you should care about stuff.

But it got me thinking. How often do we “care” about the wrong stuff?

And by “care”, I don’t just mean about the “rational” stuff.

I’m talking about your stupid reptilian brain here.

You know, the reptilian brain which sees an urgent matter pop up in your affiliate business, and a notification reminding you that your “long lost cousin’s pre-Christmas get together” is approaching, and throws them into the same “gotta get this done” basket.

Now, obviously, there’s one item on that list you definitely don’t need to care about as much as the other.

But, to your reptilian brain, it’s all the same.

So here’s some advice if you’re dealing with a bunch of stress — take the time to go through your list of “stressful” stuff, even if it’s something that’s only subconsciously stressful, and see what you can stop caring about.

Then, give yourself permission not to care.

Problem solved.

Alternatively, you could also adopt another age-old piece of advice — “practice what you preach”.

And by that, I mean you could look to our friends at the Health Trader Affiliate Program as a great source of stress supports you can take (practice), and a great source of stuff you can sell (preach).
