What are the hottest verticals or industries in 2026? Any thoughts?
I heard three were outstanding: 1. Refunds on Tips Businesses What it is You target restaurants, bars, cafés, who can reclaim 7.65% of their tipped income over the last three years as a tax refund. (Average refund $52,000, but 95% don't know this because it's super specialized tax code) Stated under IRS Code 45B (https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/fica-tip-credit-for-employers) Why we chose it - You get a 12% commission on each closed refund (CPL $8-20 / CPA around $60-70), average refund $52,000 (you do the math lol) - I am doing this rn at $10 CPL and can share results & hook you up in this affiliate program, you basically get paid on commission for each refund, and you cover ad costs - shoot me a DM on telegram for more info +31683830166 - for full transparency, I do get commission on each new affiliate I sign up :) (Here's a quick video to understand how everything works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nggtlxis_EWebsite) Restaurants get back 7.65% of the sum of the qualified tip income of the last three years. For a restaurant with 10 tipped employees, this can mean $50,000+ in credits. Restaurant, bar, hotel, or any hospitality business where employees receive tips, are eligible. (They must pay tax) Average Breakdown for $52,000 in tax refund: The accounting firm gets 30% of it on commission basis after a successful refund: 17k - and the affiliate who covers the ad spend (YOU) gets 40% of the 17k = 6k. Typical CPL of the program owner: 8-20$ - / 16% sign up themselves (Close rate around 20% - Can be increased with a call center) CPA: $60-70 2. Immigration & Deportation Defense Leads What it is You generate highly time-sensitive leads from people and families dealing with immigration problems (detention, removal proceedings, status expiry, denial notices), plus a smaller B2B slice (employers worried about compliance, audits, or sponsorship issues).
