There are tons of cool ways to showcase your affiliate links
Student-athletes often join affiliate programs to support their name, image and likeness (NIL) partnerships. That could mean you have heaps of promotional links.
And those links are important – they track earned commissions and (often) feature discounts.
So how can you showcase all of those links without them getting lost in a sea of text? One answer: Link-in-bio tools.
These tools allow athletes to get creative with their promotions, helping you show your personality while sharing products you love.

1) Linktr.ee is the best all-around link-in-bio tool for student-athletes
This is our all-around favorite for its flexibility and ease-of-use. You can do a lot of cool, super visual things without pouring a ton of time into design.
