Unity Support Is Here: Affiliate Marketing For Mobile Games
When we first started building Insert Affiliate, our goal was always to make affiliate marketing accessible for the types of apps that usually get overlooked. Mobile founders don’t always have the same tools available that web products do, and many existing affiliate platforms weren’t designed to work smoothly with mobile apps. So we focused on creating something simple, reliable, and genuinely helpful, and we’ve been improving it step by step ever since.
This latest update is especially exciting…Insert Affiliate now supports Unity.
It’s an update that feels like a natural extension of what we’re building, but also a real step forward in who we can support from here on out.
Why Unity Support Matters
Unity has become one of the most widely used development platforms in the world. More than 70% of the top 1,000 mobile games rely on it. From small indie teams to well established studios, Unity has shaped how interactive experiences are created.
Despite that, there hasn’t been an easy or integrated way for Unity apps to use affiliate marketing. Most tools don’t work well inside game environments. And while a few temporary fixes existed, none of them felt smooth enough to match the experience developers expect.
Expanding Insert Affiliate to support Unity does more than add another SDK, it opens the platform to a whole category of apps that had been waiting for a better option.
Here’s a great example of the kind of response we’ve gotten:
“Insert Affiliate has been outstanding to work with. When I approached them, they didn't yet have a Unity SDK, but within 48 hours, they built a fully functional prototype specifically for my app from the ground up. Their founder, Michael Butler, has been incredibly thorough throughout the entire process.” – Scott Peckham, Founder at Incremental Developer Ltd
Why Unity Became a Priority
One thing we’ve learned while building Insert Affiliate is that some of the most important improvements come directly from the people using the product. Unity support is a great example of that. We kept hearing from developers working on interactive apps and mobile games. They were excited about the potential of affiliate marketing, but they needed something that matched their workflow and tech stack.
The moment we realized how much impact this update could make, we moved quickly and focused on delivering it the right way. Being responsive to our users has shaped a lot of our development choices so far, and we want to keep operating with that same mindset going forward.
What Unity Developers Can Do Now
With this update, Unity apps can finally plug into Insert Affiliate easily. That means:
- Reliable referral and attribution tracking
- Support for short codes built for in-game sharing
- Clear reward structures for players who bring in new users
- Traction that doesn’t only rely on ads or the mercy of algorithms
- A way to turn engaged players into advocates
Games and interactive apps have unique user journeys, and this update gives developers the flexibility to match their referral flow to whatever fits best for their experience.
The Impact for Mobile Devs
Every time Insert Affiliate expands to a new platform or language, it increases what we’re able to do for developers. Supporting Unity is more than adding SDK number six to our list (alongside Flutter, React Native, Swift, Kotlin, and JavaScript). It means we can now serve developers building different kinds of experiences, ones that are interactive, social, and driven by player communities.
This is a step toward making Insert Affiliate useful to more creators, regardless of the stack they use. And it reinforces that we value listening carefully to what developers need, and improving the product as quickly and thoughtfully as we can.
What’s Next
Unity support won’t be the last time we make an update based on real developer feedback. Our roadmap is shaped by the apps we want to help grow, and the more conversations we have with founders, the more opportunities we see to keep improving.
If you’re building with Unity, you can integrate today. And if you’re working in another stack, we’re always paying attention and always building toward supporting more of the platforms that matter to you.
