The new Aqua Superstore campaign in LinkConnector offers a base percentage payout on all finalized sales.

With a 5% base payout and average online sales ranging up to $2,800, well matched affiliates have great potential for earnings.

Aqua Superstore began in a residential house and garage with two employees.
