Skimlinks, a Taboola company, is the world's leading Content-to-Commerce platform that helps publishers monetize their commercial content and assists merchants and brands in finding people interested in buying their products.

Skimlinks aids publishers in generating additional revenue through automated affiliate marketing. By consolidating 24,000 partner programs from over 55 affiliate networks, 4.5 million websites can earn commissions and better understand the purchasing behavior of their visitors. Clients include Conde Nast, Huffington Post, Business Insider, Buzzfeed, and Refinery29. Our goal is to help publishers be appropriately rewarded for the role their content plays in creating purchasing intent and to create a much-needed funding model for the internet.

Connexity was acquired by Taboola in 2021 to create the first Open-Web source for publishers that connects editorial content with product recommendations, allowing readers to easily purchase products related to the stories they read.
