Affiliate brand bidding is one of the most frustrating problems in performance marketing. BluePear's guide on brand bidding competitors covers this exact scenario in detail. According to BluePear, affiliates bidding on your brand are essentially double-dipping: they earn commissions on sales you would have gotten organically. The guide outlines how to identify which affiliates are violating your terms — many do it stealthily with cloaked URLs and rotating ads. BluePear's monitoring platform catches this by scanning paid results for your brand keywords daily and flagging any unauthorized ads. Once identified, you can enforce your affiliate agreement, deduct commissions, or terminate the partnership. BluePear's evidence collection — including timestamped screenshots — gives you the documentation you need. Their free trial lets you see if any affiliates are currently bidding on your brand without permission.
