What Is Ultimate Bundles?
First things first, you might be wondering what Ultimate Bundles even is.
Ultimate Bundles is a company that puts together exclusive collections, known as bundles, of digital products for a steeply discounted price. The bundles contain digital products like ebooks, online courses, and printables.
They create bundles on topics like blogging, healthy living, photography, crafting, productivity, homemaking, personal finance, travel, and more.
They are typically only available for a short time (a few days to a week) each year at an amazing price, usually over 90% off. Some bundles go “evergreen” which mean they are available for a few additional months after the initial sale.
Partnering with Ultimate Bundles
For bloggers, partnering with Ultimate Bundles is a great opportunity to earn money blogging. And since Ultimate Bundles creates so many different bundles on different topics, there’s something for every blog niche.
Whether you are a parenting blogger, travel blogger, lifestyle blogger, craft blogger, etc. you will find a bundle you can promote to your audience.
There are several ways I partner with Ultimate Bundles in order to make money. Here are the three ways I make money with Ultimate Bundles:
1. Becoming an Ultimate Bundles Contributor
The first way I make money with Ultimate Bundles is as a contributor. If you have your own digital product, why not submit it for inclusion in an upcoming bundle?
My ebook Get Paid to Pin was included in the 2018 Genius Blogger’s Toolkit as well as the 2019 Pinterest Mini-Bundle. After every sale, all the bundle contributors receive a bonus which is split from a pool of the total bundle sales.
The contributor bonuses I have received so far have ranged from around $100 to $500. I feel like that’s a pretty good payout for simply submitting a digital product that I’ve already created to Ultimate Bundles.
Don’t have your own digital product yet? Here are some ideas for digital products you can create quickly and easily to submit to a bundle.
2. As an Ultimate Bundles Affiliate
Another way to earn money with Ultimate Bundles is by signing up for their affiliate program and promoting the bundles.
As an affiliate, you will earn 40% commission on each bundle that you sell. Some great ways to promote bundles are by writing a blog post, sending an email to your list, or sharing the sale on social media.
If you are a contributor and one of your products is included in the bundle, your commission rate jumps up to 70%. Since I have been a contributor for two bundles now, I have received 70% commission on sales which really adds up!
The main way I promote bundles as an affiliate is through sending several emails to my email list whenever there’s a sale going on.
When you sign up for the Ultimate Bundles affiliate program, you will get access to email swipe copy you can use to write your own sales emails!

You can also promote the sale on your blog and social media.
3. Through Second Tier Affiliates
The final way that I am able to earn some extra money with Ultimate Bundles is through my second tier affiliate commissions.
This just mean that if I refer someone to become an affiliate for Ultimate Bundles, I will earn 10% commission on all the sales that they make. (They will still earn the regular 40% or 70% commission on their sales.)
I really like this aspect of Ultimate Bundles, because I have quite a few second tier affiliates who are rockstars at selling bundles, which means I earn passive income every time they make a sale.
Once you sign up to be an Ultimate Bundles affiliate, you will get a special link to refer your own second tier affiliates to the program.
If you know some other bloggers who would be interested in becoming an affiliate for Ultimate Bundles, then why not refer them yourself?
Other Things I Like About Ultimate Bundles
These are the top three ways I make money blogging with Ultimate Bundles. It’s a great way to get started with affiliate marketing as a blogger.
Even as a new blogger, you can make quite a bit with Ultimate Bundles.
Here are a few other reasons I like Ultimate Bundles so much:
- If you’re a contributor for a bundle, you get that bundle for free.
- If you’re an affiliate, you get a free bundle after selling five copies.
- They provide affiliates with in-depth training and resources, including pre-made graphics and email copy to help you promote the bundles.
- There are cash bonuses and prizes for the top affiliates for each bundle.
- There are giveaways all affiliates are entered into for each bundle.
- No matter what niche you’re in, there’s probably a bundle out there for you.
- It’s easy to sell bundles because of the discounted price and time-sensitive sales. No one wants to miss out on a great deal!
This is the perfect way to get started with affiliate marketing if you’re a new blogger, AND a great way to get more exposure if you’re a product creator.

I never heard about ultimate bundles. This is new for me. I think i am gonna try this. Thanks
Definitely check it out!
Awesome article! Can sales be made through Pinterest if an affiliate is disclosed? I’ve been looking for the answer but haven’t found it!
I’ve been struggling with my blog http://www.positivebraindump.com and would like to improve my skills in affiliate marketing.
Yes, you can! I would just add #affiliatelink to the beginning of the pin description in order to disclose it.
I took a look at your blog and the thing that struck me right away was that it’s hard to read! I would change the script font you’re using to something readable instead.
Hi! Very interesting post, just have a quick question: do you buy the bundles that you promote? Or is it possible to promote them even if you haven’t bought them, and if so how do you disclose that?
I am still new to affiliate marketing and i want to know wether it’s okay for a blogger to promote products they haven’t tried, and how to do it correctly.
Thanks in advance!
Hi Imane,
I do buy the bundles that I promote. I was actually a contributor for the Genius Blogger’s Toolkit, so I received that one for free. For the other bundles, I have purchased them at the 40% discount that’s available when you sign up to become an affiliate. You can promote products you haven’t tried, but I personally don’t do it just because I don’t feel confident recommending something I have not used.
Hope this helps!

Hi! I’ve just heard about ultimate bundles and I’m definitely gonna try it out! I’ll start by promoting it through my blog posts though, cause it’s been really hard to grow my email list!
Your blog has helped me gained some ideas on how to grow my own website though, and if you have time to check out https://elegantelprana.com and tell me what I can improve, it’d mean so much to me!
Starting off promoting it in blog posts is a great idea! I took a look at your blog and I would suggest maybe defining your niche a little more – right now it looks like you have content about many different topics and it may help to narrow your focus more.
I never heard of Ultimate Bundles, but I have a feeling that this is worth checking out since I’m looking for affiliate programs to apply for.
Thank you so much for the info.
Yes, it’s a great affiliate program to check out!
