Comparison · as of October 2026

wyrld, LTK, Stylink or Amazon? The comparison for creators.

As a creator, you have six common ways to earn from product recommendations today: a storefront on wyrld, the creator app LTK, the link service Stylink, individual affiliate links from partner programmes, a link-in-bio page or an Amazon storefront. They differ in how many shops you reach, whether the click, the sale or both are paid, whether you write invoices yourself or receive a self-billing credit note, whether your own agency can work with you, and whether your community can compare prices.

About this comparison: written by wyrld GmbH, Hamburg. wyrld is one of the options compared here. If something is out of date or wrong, email us at info@wyrld.de and we will correct it.

Why wyrld

This is where wyrld comes out ahead. Each point names the routes from the table below that it is compared with.

  • Prices from several shops side by side For each product, your community sees the offers wyrld finds in its partner shops, with prices. With Stylink and individual affiliate links each link leads to one shop, an Amazon storefront shows only Amazon, and LTK’s FAQ does not mention a multi-shop price comparison.
  • Click or sale: wyrld has both LTK and Amazon say on their own pages that they pay on sales, and Stylink’s terms say it pays for clicks only. On wyrld some shops pay for the click, others pay commission on the sale, and some pay both.
  • 90,000+ partner shops, one account LTK puts its retailers at around 7,000, Stylink its partner shops at more than 1,100. For individual affiliate links you sign up with every network separately.
  • Credit notes for small businesses too Every month you get a self-billing credit note, so you never write an invoice. According to its terms, Stylink issues credit notes only to VAT-registered business accounts with a German VAT ID.
  • Your agency works on your storefront with you It has its own dashboard, maintains products and profile with you and sees your numbers. According to its terms, only the creator may use a Stylink account, and LTK’s FAQ does not mention access for your agency.
  • No minimum follower count Your storefront is live as soon as you sign up. In Germany LTK requires at least 5,000 followers, and for social media pages Amazon’s affiliate programme usually asks for at least 500 organic followers or likes.

Like LTK and Stylink, wyrld is free for creators. Sources for the other providers are at the end of this page.

Which option is right for you?

LTK

Good if you show fashion, beauty or interiors, already have a sizeable community and mainly want to earn on sales. In Germany LTK requires at least 5,000 followers. Your posts and products appear in your LTK shop and in the LTK app; you can link products from the roughly 7,000 retailers on LTK. You are paid per sale, not per click. According to its FAQ, accepted creators get access to a personal manager from LTK itself; that has nothing to do with your own agency. If you have fewer than 5,000 followers or want to earn on more than just sales, wyrld is the better fit: there is no minimum follower count, and some shops pay for the click.

Stylink

Good if you want to start without a minimum reach and be paid for clicks. You create recommendation links to more than 1,100 partner shops and can collect them in “Stylist”, a profile page with link collections. Each link leads to one partner shop, and according to its terms you do not earn on sales. If you also want to earn on sales or show your community prices from several shops side by side, wyrld is the better fit.

Individual affiliate links

Good if you recommend only a few products from a few shops and are happy to handle sign-ups, links and statements yourself. Every additional network adds another account, another payout and another statement. If you recommend from many shops, wyrld is the better fit: one account instead of a sign-up with every network, and one credit note a month instead of separate statements.

Link-in-bio page

Good for collecting your channels, dates and collaborations in one place. You can only earn with links you set up as affiliate links yourself. The page itself usually pays nothing. Linktree does have a shop with commission, Linktree Shops, but according to Linktree it is available in the US only. You can combine both: your product recommendations go into your wyrld storefront, and you add the storefront as one of the links on your link-in-bio page.

Amazon storefront

Good if nearly all your recommendations are available on Amazon. You cannot show products from other shops, such as fashion labels, beauty retailers or small brands, and your community only sees the Amazon price. If you also recommend products from other shops, wyrld is the better fit: Amazon is one of more than 90,000 partner shops on wyrld.

If you have your own agency

On most routes everything runs through your account, and your agency has no access of its own. On wyrld it has its own dashboard, opens your storefront from there, maintains products and profile together with you and sees your numbers. If you agree a commission share, wyrld deducts it from your earnings in the monthly settlement, and your agency receives its own credit note.

Creator storefront on wyrld

Good if you recommend from many shops and want everything in one place: you paste a product link, wyrld looks for the same product across more than 90,000 partner shops, creates an affiliate link for every offer it finds and shows your community the prices side by side. Depending on the shop, you earn per click, per sale or both. LTK and Amazon pay on sales, according to their own pages, and Stylink pays for clicks only, according to its terms. wyrld has both: shops that pay for the click and shops that pay commission on the sale. You receive a credit note once a month, even as a small business (Kleinunternehmer), and wyrld is free for you.

Frequently asked questions.

What is the difference between a creator storefront and a link-in-bio page?
