Affiliate World Americas 2027

About the event

Affiliate World Americas is the Americas edition of Affiliate World Conferences, a series of events for affiliate marketers and ecommerce entrepreneurs. The series also runs separate editions in Europe (Budapest), Dubai and Asia. The Americas event is a two-day in-person conference; its most recent edition took place on 7 and 8 September 2026 in Cancún, Mexico, with the Cancun Center named as the venue in exhibitor announcements. The organizer lists 2027 dates as coming soon.

The program is built around talks by working performance and ecommerce marketers, who share the strategies and tactics they use on paid traffic, offers and campaigns. Alongside the stage content there is an exhibition floor where ad networks, advertisers, publishers and technology providers have booths and look for new partners.

The crowd is mostly affiliates, media buyers, ecommerce operators and the companies that sell traffic and tools to them. Mobile app founders will find content on user acquisition and paid media that carries over to apps, but subscription apps and app M&A are not the focus. It is mainly a learning and networking event for performance marketing; it is not set up as a venue for meeting app buyers, acquirers or app investors, so treat any deal conversations as a bonus rather than the goal.

Who should attend

Best suited to app founders and growth leads who rely on paid user acquisition and want fresh tactics from performance marketers, plus a chance to meet ad networks and traffic sources on the expo floor. It is less useful for finding app buyers or investors.

Tip: if you are preparing to sell an app, use the event to benchmark acquisition costs and traffic partners, and bring clean channel-level UA and ROAS figures, since stable acquisition is something buyers will ask about later.
