About Yieldkit

Yieldkit is a technology platform for performance and affiliate marketing that connects content and commerce. Currently 5,000 publishers, 72 networks and 50,000 advertisers are associated together worldwide.

Matching occurs through Yieldkit’s machine learning technology. It analyzes publishers' text-based content and brings together certain terms and keywords approved by the publisher with matching e-commerce offers and services from advertisers. Publishers can additionally monetize their content and advertisers have access to a high-performance in-text advertising format.

Yieldkit was founded in Hamburg in 2009 by Oliver Krohne, who remains a shareholder along with CEO Daniel Neuhaus, investor Lars Hinrichs and Waterland Private Equity. Based in Hamburg, Yieldkit currently has 35 employees.

Yieldkit is a company of the YK Group, which incorporates the work invested by Waterland Private Equity in affiliate and performance marketing. Besides Yieldkit, the group also owns digidip, a specialist for premium content monetization, as well the commerce network shopping24.
