Affiliate Summit East 2025 Recap: A Powerful Week for PlatformPay.io in NYC

Affiliate Summit East 2025 Recap: A Powerful Week for PlatformPay.io in NYC

Affiliate Summit East (ASE) returned to the heart of New York City on August 4–5, 2025, bringing together over 4,500 advertisers, affiliates, ecommerce sellers, media buyers, and tech providers for one of the industry’s most anticipated events of the year.

Hosted at the iconic New York Marriott Marquis in Times Square, ASE continues to be the must-attend gathering for performance marketers looking to scale, connect, and stay ahead of the curve.

This year, PlatformPay.io proudly exhibited at the Meet Market, and we’re thrilled to say—ASE did not disappoint.

Nonstop Action at the Meet Market

Our booth was buzzing from the moment the doors opened. We had back-to-back conversations with current clients, new prospects, and long-time referral partners.

Whether attendees were looking to integrate subscription billing, improve subscription campaigns, or launch a new offer, we were able to show firsthand how PlatformPay.io helps advertisers unlock recurring revenue and build sustainable growth.

ASE is unique in that it offers free attendance to affiliates and media buyers—putting the right people in the room. And that made all the difference. Everyone came ready to network, do business, and find new ways to scale.

NYC: The Ultimate Conference Backdrop

Our team stayed nearby at Tempo by Hilton in Times Square, which made getting to and from the venue a breeze. The location was perfect for meetings, grabbing dinner with clients, and making our way to the various after-hours events.

And yes—we made it to plenty of those. From networking mixers to the high-energy ClickBid World boat party, the social side of ASE was alive and well. These events are often where the real magic happens, and this year was no different.

A Global Audience, All in One City

One of the things that makes ASE so valuable for PlatformPay.io is the international presence. With so many industry professionals from Europe and beyond in attendance, ASE offered an ideal setting for us to connect with both domestic and global partners.

Since PlatformPay.io works with advertisers and merchants around the world, having everyone in one place made for some extremely productive conversations.

Until Next Time

Affiliate Summit East continues to be a cornerstone event for PlatformPay.io—and 2025 was our best year yet. From meaningful conversations at the booth to closing deals on rooftops, the energy and opportunity ASE brings is unmatched.

If we missed you at the show, let’s change that. We’d love to connect and show you how PlatformPay.io can help you monetize more effectively, scale faster, and earn more from every customer.
