Top verticals in LATAM

Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Columbia, and other GEOs of LATAM can become your affiliate marketing destinations. These countries have a huge amount of traffic (not the most expensive one), while the users are still not overwhelmed with tons of ads, which affects ROI positively. As for the verticals most suitable for LATAM, basing on our tests and stats, we would recommend the following:


iGaming

GEOs: Brazil and Mexico
Ad formats: Popunder for Mexico; Popunder, Push and In-Page Push for Brazil
Device: Mobile
Platform: Android 
Offer flow: Direct transfer to a landing page, no pre-lander

According to our statistics, iGaming is the best vertical in LATAM. And the most profitable branch is Sports. 

Latin America has their football league Copa Libertadores and a huge population fond of this sport. Brazilians love football like nobody else, they never miss matches as well as the opportunity to support their favorite teams (mostly, local, of course).

By the way, Copa Libertadores 2022 is currently on the run and will continue until October, so you can launch your Sport-related campaign and make some money right now! You can find a schedule here.  

One of our partners already did that – he promoted a Sports offer during football. The idea of the offer is an opportunity to support the favorite and get a bonus for registration:

This landing page is aimed at Brazilian users, that is why it is colored with the national flag shades. And the happy supporters are also Brazilians, which is important – users can relate to them from the first sight. By the way, for more iGaming creatives’ insights, check this article.

The text is standard: You can get a 50 BRL bonus to play for registration – It’s free, just register and try to win! Three steps are described below + an offer description with the company information was located at the bottom of the page – just to increase the reliability level.


Finance

GEOs: Mexico, Columbia, Brazil
Ad formats: Push (+Badges), In-Page Push, and Popunder
Device: Mobile
Platform: Android 
Offer flow: Pre-lander is recommended 

As for the Finance offers, really great options here are various bonuses, cards, loans, and investments. Mind that LATAM has its own banks – BVA in Mexico or Santander in Brazil. 

Here is an example of a creative:

PropellerAds_Latam_Finance

The text translated as: “Simple card registration, fill out the form, and get your card.” 

In some LATAM countries, like Chile and Argentina, inflation took place in recent years. For that reason, people started being interested in alternative financial operations, like crypto. For such offers, you are recommended to use pre-landers with success stories – say, a story about someone who managed to earn money with cryptocurrency. Such stories include a very important marketing element – social proof – and it always works well.

What is more, as Push ads and In-Page Push ads work really efficiently for Finance offers in LATAM, don’t forget to try adding our new CTR-boosting feature – Badges! According to our tests, for this vertical, you may consider such as: Voice, Touch, Cup, Monetization, Diamond, Cart, and Swipe.


Utilities 

GEOs: Mexico, Brazil, Columbia, Peru, and Argentina 
Ad formats: Push (+Badges), Popunder, and Interstitial 
Device: Mobile
Platform: Android 
Offer flow: Pre-lander is recommended 

In LATAM countries, mobile traffic is on the raise. Most Internet users prefer smartphones instead of laptops, so various mobile utilities are great for your promotions. Cleaners, memory boosters, VPNs, and antiviruses are a good choice for your next campaign. As for the platform, make sure to target Android users.  

As for creatives, they can be pretty simple for this GEO, like this one:

PropellerAds_Latam_Utilities_offer

Mind the text – it is written in Portuguese. It says: “Keep your smartphone safe, try this app IMMEDIATELY!” 

And now see a pre-lander:

Just to remind you, timer is a nice marketing move – whenever you locate it on your pre-lander, it evokes a sense of urgency. Pure psychology and nothing more – people are more likely to act when they have limited offers, being afraid of missing the chance. 


Dating

GEOs: Brazil and Mexico
Ad formats: Push Notifications
Device: Mobile
Platform: Android 
Offer flow: Pre-lander is recommended 

Dating is always a win-win vertical for most GEOs. In LATAM, various applications for communication and flirting are rather popular, while the affiliate marketing approaches are pretty much standard. Like in most other GEOs, you may use photos of ladies and men for your banners and pre-landers, making them look natural and appealing. Pre-landers also work great for Dating, like this one:

PropellerAds_Latam_Dating_offer

The text is translated as: “Are you feeling lonely? Check this app and find new people!” When visitors click the button, they get to the app for chatting. 

The most efficient Dating offer flow for LATAM looks like this: 

Push Notification > pre-lander > application for chatting


eCommerce

GEOs: Brazil and Mexico
Ad formats: In-Page Push, Push Notifications and Onclick 
Device: Mobile and Desktop
Platform: Android and Windows
Offer flow: Pre-lander is recommended 

eCommerce is a bit less fruitful than other verticals listed above, but it still has all chances to fill your pockets with money. The best eCommerce offer types for LATAM are gadgets of all kinds (like smartphones and tablets), test drives for goods, and so-called smart alarms – security signal systems.

During quarantine, people were shopping online only and most of them enjoyed it, so eCommerce is an option for your LATAM campaign, as well.  

For eCommerce, it is especially important to have your pre-landers and banners translated into Portuguese.
