Daisycon (part of Linehub)

What Daisycon (part of Linehub) does

Daisycon is a performance-based (affiliate) marketing network founded in 2000 and headquartered in Almere, Netherlands, operating as a brand within Linehub, a Dutch collective of specialized marketing companies. The platform connects two sides of a marketplace: advertisers (3,000+ brands across verticals such as finance, fashion, home & living, and survey/market research) seeking customer acquisition, and a network of 40,000+ publishers (content sites, comparison engines, influencers, email marketers) seeking to monetize traffic. The company runs over 1,500 international campaigns and maintains offices across eight European countries (Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Denmark, Romania, Finland, Sweden, Greece), with stated market reach extending across most of Western and Northern Europe.

The core product is a proprietary affiliate platform built on cookie-based and cross-device tracking, real-time performance analytics, and a full API. Supporting modules include a Marketplace for partnership discovery, dedicated voucher-code attribution (used where cookie tracking is degraded), product feeds, comparison-engine widgets, a Chrome extension for publisher workflows, CMS connections, and e-commerce integrations (Shopify app, Magento 2 extension) plus standard SaaS infrastructure (HubSpot, Google Analytics, Cloudflare). The platform is operated under Linehub's ISO/IEC 27001-certified information security management system, which is positioned as a trust differentiator for regulated verticals such as finance.

The business model is primarily transaction-based: Daisycon takes a share of performance-based payments (clicks, leads, sales) that advertisers pay and intermediates settlement to publishers, supplemented by professional/managed-services fees for Affiliate Campaign Management, Publisher Acquisition, and Partnership Management. Go-to-market is hybrid—product-led/self-serve for publishers (free registration) and for entry-level advertisers (Light package), and sales-led with dedicated account management for Advanced and Premium advertiser tiers. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, structured across three tiers differentiated by transparency, support, optimization tooling, brand protection, and degree of managed-service involvement.
