Campaigns and earnings

As a promoter on NextSet, you earn commissions by driving ticket sales to events — and your dashboard gives you the tools to run that whole operation from one place. This article walks through creating campaigns, generating your share links, and understanding what your earnings screen is telling you.

Finding your promoter tools

After you log in, you land on your Promoter Dashboard. The left sidebar has three sections:

• Events — your promoted events list, event discovery, and earnings
• Marketing — campaigns, analytics, audience insights, and share links
• Account — your profile, messages, and settings

Campaigns and share links both live under Marketing.

Creating a campaign

A campaign lets you group your promotional effort around a specific event. You can track reach, clicks, and conversions all in one place.

1. In the sidebar, click Campaigns.
2. Click the New Campaign button (top right).
3. Give your campaign a name and attach it to the event you're promoting.
4. Save it — your campaign appears in the list with its stats at zero, ready to track activity.

Your campaign dashboard shows three numbers for each campaign:

Stat	What it means
Reach	How many people have seen content connected to this campaign
Clicks	How many times your link was tapped or clicked
Sales	Tickets sold that trace back through your link

When a campaign is live and performing, its status shows as Active. You can pause a campaign at any time, and completed ones stay in the list so you can compare results over time.

Generating and sharing your affiliate links

Your share links are how NextSet connects a ticket sale back to you. Every link is unique to you and the event you're promoting.

1. In the sidebar, click Share Links.
2. Click Create Link.
3. Choose the event you want a link for.
4. Copy the link and share it anywhere — your socials, a group chat, an email, wherever your audience is.

When someone buys a ticket through your link, the sale is attributed to you and the commission shows up in your earnings.

A few things worth knowing about links:

• Each link tracks clicks separately, so you can create different links for different channels (one for Instagram, one for a group chat) and compare which performs better.
• The link points to the event's public ticketing page on NextSet — anyone who follows it can buy a ticket without needing an account.

Reading your earnings

Go to Earnings in the sidebar to see your commission totals. The page shows three numbers:

• Total earnings — everything you've earned since you joined as a promoter
• This month — commissions from the current calendar month
• Pending — commissions that have been confirmed but haven't settled yet

Earnings are driven by ticket sales that trace back through your affiliate links. If you promoted an event but didn't share your link (or someone bought tickets without using your link), that sale won't show in your earnings — only referrals tracked through your share links count.

You can export your earnings history using the Export button at the top right of the Earnings page.

Watching your analytics

The Analytics page gives you a broader view of how all your promotions are performing over time — traffic trends, top-performing events, and how your conversion rate is moving. Use it to figure out which events and channels are worth putting more effort into.

Common problems

My earnings look lower than I expected. Earnings only count ticket sales that came through your tracked share links. If you shared a plain event URL (not your affiliate link from the Share Links page), those sales won't be attributed to you. Always copy your link from the Share Links page, not from your browser's address bar.

I created a campaign but my stats are all zero. Stats update as real activity happens. A brand-new campaign starts at zero — share your link and check back after your audience has had a chance to click through.

I can't find the event I want to promote. Head to Find Events in the sidebar to browse upcoming events and pick up new ones to promote. Not all events are open to external promoters — if an event doesn't appear in your list, it may not be accepting affiliate promotion yet.

My pending earnings haven't cleared. Pending means the commission is confirmed but settlement timing depends on the event's ticket policy. If an event is still upcoming, commissions from it typically clear after the event date passes.
