REST API

Query the registry with simple HTTP requests. No auth required.

Endpoints

GET

/api/programs

List published programs (?q=, ?category=, ?type=, ?sort=, ?limit=, ?offset=)

GET

/api/programs/{slug}

Get one program by slug, or 404

GET

/api/categories

List categories of the published set with program counts

All three answer without authentication, send Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * and are cached for an hour at the edge. They serve only the records cleared for publication, which is a smaller set than the registry behind the site.

Query parameters

Parameter	Accepts	Behaviour
q	any text	Case-insensitive substring of the name, short description, a tag or the category.
category	a category name	Exact match. The current names come from `/api/categories`.
type	recurring, one-time, tiered	Exact match on the commission type.
sort	relevance, az, za, commission_desc, newest	Defaults to relevance. An unrecognised value falls back to relevance rather than erroring.
limit	1 to 500	Omit to get every match. Anything above 500 is capped at 500.
offset	a whole number	Skips that many matches. Defaults to 0.

There is no verified filter, and no verified field in the response. It is upstream data-quality metadata, not publication clearance and not a merchant endorsement, so the public payload leaves it out.

List programs

curl

curl "https://afftera.com/api/programs?q=ai&type=recurring&limit=1"

total counts every match, before limit and offset are applied, and filters echoes back what the route understood. Each program object carries the whole record; the sample keeps a few fields for length.

response

{
  "programs": [
    {
      "slug": "murf-ai",
      "name": "Murf AI",
      "url": "https://murf.ai",
      "category": "AI",
      "commission": {
        "type": "recurring",
        "rate": "20%",
        "mode": "percentage",
        "value": 20,
        "duration": "24 months",
        "conditions": "20% recurring commission for 24 months per referral"
      },

    }
  ],
  "total": 1,
  "filters": { "q": "ai", "category": null, "type": "recurring", "sort": "relevance" }
}

Get one program

curl

curl "https://afftera.com/api/programs/murf-ai"

This one returns the program object on its own, not wrapped in an envelope. A slug that is not published answers 404 with { "error": "Program not found" }.

List categories

curl

curl "https://afftera.com/api/categories"

response

{
  "categories": [
    { "name": "AI", "count": 4 },
    { "name": "Productivity", "count": 1 }
  ],
  "total": 2
}

total is the number of categories, not of programs, and a category only appears while something published sits in it.
