TSA Affiliation Links
Buy stuff via TSA and we'll thank you by feeding Davs more cakePublished 29/11/2009 at 19:00 by Michael
Action Man was ace. He was all soldierly and manly, and he had the amazing Training Tower, which my parent’s had terrible trouble trying to build early one Christmas morning before I got out of bed to see it. Still, when I got up last Christmas I really appreciated the effort, even if I did have to finish it myself. Of course, the problem was “missing parts”, but they weren’t missing as such, they were just not seen because my parent’s didn’t have Eagle Eyes like my favourite Action Man.
And, I think, like most of our lovely readers, because you’ve no doubt spotted the arrival of affiliate links and the odd advert on TSA over the last couple of days. What this means is that we’re partnering with a number of online retailers to provide links to their products, but if you use these specific links, TSA benefits. That’s right, if you buy a game via one of these new links, or even just click the occasional advert, then TSA will receive a small amount of cash which we’ll be putting to very good use.
We want to make sure we offer you the best deals, so let us know your favourite online retailer and we’ll do our best to set up an affiliation link with them. Rememeber, it really does help TSA if you order using the affiliate links, if nothing else it will allow us to afford more cake for Davs and Raen, and hopefully keep the server going every time TuffCub breaks it.
We always value your feedback, so let us know what you think about this in the comments below.

The only online shops I use are Amazon, Play and Shopto. I’d gladly use the links if it helps out TSA.

Must admit I am normally a bit stuck in my ways too when it comes to online shopping, but will help out where I can.

Well it was TSA that opened my eyes to shoto.net, and i have not looked back since! They are by far the cheapest place to buy games. So if you could do some affiliation links with them then i would click them to buy my games.
It’s a shame you don’t do TSA points with them to!

Do Gameplay.co.uk or The Hut do affiliate links?

ShopTo, Play, Amazon. However, I’m not sure about the percentage TSA makes on purchases and I’d far prefer to donate some money via PayPal. I’ve brought it up before and have been told (on another site I contribute to) that it’s very simple to do. Even if at the end of the year, donations only cover server costs and a pack of Rich Tea Biscuits. It would be a start and could equally be run in tandem with the ads.

the only place i buy games is GAME, but not many people do so would be pretty pointless just getting links for me.
I think most people use shopto so that would be a good one. Also if i click on one of them adverts then close it and click again do you get money twice?

Are you one of those old-fashioned bricks & mortar type shoppers?

Sorry am I missing something obvious about who the affliations are with? Do you have a handy list?

Don’t paticularly like the adverts, but if they help TSA that can only mean a good thing.

Also, Michael are you back or just doing some one off posting?

I have another suggestion. When you guys do a review would you perhaps have more success with a slim banner (or two) down at the Score/Pros & Cons level? If you need any help making banners give me a shout. Part of the ol’ job and all that.

Bearing in mind the current furore in the forums about GB, is this wise? But i only use Amazon.

I usually use the net for DVD’s/BD Rays, Not so much for games.
Having said that, I would like Amazon and Play predominantly.
It would be very very cool if you could convert TSA points into PSN credit (I’m dreaming again).
