Six steps to launch FX affiliates on note

GETTING STARTED
1
Create your note account (5 min)
Free signup with email. Use the profile to briefly establish your FX side-income angle
2
Sign up for Kingfin, free (3 min)
Get your affiliate link. Zero signup fees, RevShare up to 80%
3
Publish your first three articles (1–2 weeks)
Topics like "OlympTrade signup walkthrough", "What FX affiliates are", "How beginners actually earn"
4
Cross-promote on X (Twitter)
Announce every article on X. Even with zero followers, post the URL with hashtags
5
Keep a 1–2 posts/week cadence
Around the 3-month mark, note's internal search starts surfacing you and organic traffic begins
6
Read the data and rewrite
Watch views and likes; expand and improve articles that resonate

The four best places to put your affiliate link

LINK PLACEMENT
1
Article intro (above the fold)
A "Try it free" CTA before the reader scrolls. Plant the option before they bounce
2
Right after listing benefits
"Here's why this is great" → immediate "Try it" link. Capture them while the interest is hot
3
Below comparison tables
A link placed right after "OlympTrade is our top pick" converts well
4
After the closing summary
Readers who made it this far are warm. Close with a clean "Sign up here"
Place links in natural context

"Just sign up" backfires. "If you want to try this yourself, here's the link" matches reader intent and converts much better.

6

The note × X (Twitter) compound strategy

NOTE + X STRATEGY
1
Thread the article's key points on X
3–5 tweets that hit the core ideas, then "full version on note"
2
One tweet a day demonstrating expertise
"Today's FX note" or "FX terms you didn't know cost you money" — short posts to grow followers
3
Put your note link in your X profile
"FX affiliate breakdowns → note" in the profile to route traffic
80%
Kingfin max RevShare
note articles + X traffic compound — more referrals means more recurring income
The high-engagement X formula

(1) Question hook (2) Three checked points (3) Takeaway (4) "Details on note"
This pattern alone reliably doubles or triples engagement.

7

FX affiliates on note — three compliance rules

COMPLIANCE
1
No profit guarantees, ever
"Guaranteed to earn", "definite ¥X / month", "principal protected" all risk violating Japan's Financial Instruments and Exchange Act (FIEA). Strip them entirely.
2
Always disclose risk
State clearly that "FX trading carries risk of loss of principal" and "investment decisions are your own responsibility"
3
Disclose affiliate relationships
"This article contains affiliate links" near the title or intro (per Japan's Premiums and Representations Act)
Compliant phrasing example

Don't: "You'll definitely earn ¥100k/month"
Do: "In my case I earned approximately ¥X/month (individual result; no income is guaranteed)"

8
