How to use the Affiliate Pin Maker

  1. 1

    Add the photo and headline

    Upload one clear photo of the product category you are rounding up, then type a headline that names the budget or the winner, like "Best Wireless Earbuds Under $50". A drawn sample shows the layout until you add your own.

  2. 2

    Fill in three picks and the verdict

    Enter up to three picks with their prices, then write one line saying who each list is for, such as "Best for commuters". Leave a pick empty to hide that row. Rank one is always highlighted as the top pick.

  3. 3

    Check the disclosure and download

    Pick the disclosure wording that matches how you earn, leave it off only if no links are monetized, then download the PNG and pin it to the relevant board with a link to the full roundup, not a single product page.

Affiliate pins do one job: help someone pick between options fast. A pin that shows a photo, a clear "best under" headline, three named picks with prices and one honest verdict line gets saved by people who are already close to buying. A pin that only says "check out these picks" gets scrolled past.

This maker lays a photo panel on top, then the headline, the verdict, three ranked pick rows with prices on the right, and a disclosure line along the bottom. Choose from four styles, toggle the disclosure wording, and download a 1000 x 1500 PNG. Your photo stays in the browser.

Writing roundup pins people trust

Name the winner in the headline and keep prices current. "Best under $50" tells a scroller the budget in five words, and prices in the rows remove a click just to check. Update the pin when a price or pick changes, or the saves you earned will send people to a stale list.

One verdict line beats three paragraphs. Say who the top pick is for in a few words and let the rows carry the detail. If you have written a longer comparison, link the pin to it with the comparison pin maker for the side-by-side version and keep this one as the quick picker.

Disclosure, links and tracking

If a link earns you a commission, say so on the pin itself. The disclosure dropdown adds a standard line at the bottom; the affiliate disclosure generator writes the full version for your site. Pinterest also expects affiliate relationships to be clear in the pin description, not only in the linked article.

Tag every roundup link with the UTM builder so you can see which boards and pins actually produce clicks. When you publish a new list, turn the old pin into a listicle pin series so each pick gets its own pin pointing back to the same roundup.

Affiliate Pin Maker FAQ

Do I have to disclose affiliate links on Pinterest?

Yes. If you earn a commission from a link, the disclosure needs to be clear and easy to find, on the pin and in the post it links to. Use the disclosure dropdown here for the line on the image and keep the same wording in your pin description and on the landing page.

What size is the affiliate pin?

The maker exports 1000 x 1500 pixels, a 2:3 ratio. The headline, three pick rows and the disclosure line all fit inside that frame without being cropped in the feed.

How many products should a roundup pin show?

Three is a good number for the image: enough to compare, few enough to read at a glance. Put the full list of five or ten in the article the pin links to, and use a listicle pin series if you want each item to have its own pin.

Should prices go on the pin?

Yes, when you can keep them current. Prices help people decide and they reduce clicks from people who were only checking the cost. If prices change too often for you to maintain, leave the price fields empty and show them only in the linked article.

What if I only recommend one product?

Fill in one pick row and hide the other two by leaving them empty. The rank badge and layout still work, and the verdict line becomes your recommendation. For a single product with more detail, the <a href="/tools/product-pin-maker/">product pin maker</a> is the better fit.

Can I make several affiliate pins for one roundup?

Yes. Change the headline and verdict to lead with a different pick each time, keep the same photo or swap it, and download a separate PNG. Publish them to different boards with the same tracked link to see which angle earns the most saves.
