‘It’s like Google all over again’: What OpenAI’s Instant Checkout signals about conversational commerce

For a company that reportedly has no plans to advertise, OpenAI has laid yet another brick in the foundation of what could be an ad business. On Monday, the tech behemoth launched Instant Checkout, an in-app shopping feature.

Ironically, commerce and marketing experts are less interested in what Instant Checkout means for OpenAI’s ad roadmap, and more interested in what it signals about agentic commerce, product discovery and zero-click search, six marketers told Digiday.

Consider it a sign of the times: product discovery is moving from traditional search engines and marketplaces and toward AI-powered conversations. AI chat bots are expected to become the next brand awareness battleground.

MaxBounty Launches Lucrative New Performance Bonus to Give Affiliates More Ways to Earn

Big earnings deserve big rewards.

That’s why we’ve launched a new two-tier performance bonus that gives new affiliates up to $10,000 in bonus earnings in their first three months at MaxBounty.

How The New Performance Bonus Works

This new performance bonus eliminates the monthly thresholds of the previous bonus structure while also offering affiliates a higher overall reward.

Here’s how it works:

  • Sign up to become a MaxBounty affiliate.
  • Have your affiliate application approved
  • Opt-in to the promotion via the top-right corner progress bar in the MaxBounty Affiliate Dashboard.
(Click on ‘BONUS TIER’ to unveil the opt-in button)

From there, every dollar you earn in your first 90 days will then count towards the total required to achieve one of two bonus tiers:

Affiliate Performance Bonus Tier 1

Generate $5,000 in earnings in your first three months to automatically unlock an additional $1,000 bonus.

Affiliate Performance Bonus Tier 2

Generate $50,000 in earnings in your first three months to automatically unlock an additional $10,000 bonus.

If you’re eligible for either bonus, that amount will automatically be applied to your account 90s days after your application was approved.

Support for Your First Steps as a MaxBounty Affiliate

Early momentum is everything. This new performance bonus rewards you with extra budget that you can reinvest, helping you scale your campaigns faster.

Starting today, any approved affiliate signups will have three full months to qualify, giving you plenty of time to accumulate earnings from day one. You can then track your progress within MaxBounty’s dashboard to see how close you are to unlocking either bonus tier.

Your First Wins Start Here

This bonus is designed to help you build momentum, accelerate your success, and see real rewards early in your MaxBounty journey. It’s our way of helping you turn your first campaigns into lasting wins.
