An interstitial or an iframe could be interesting, and provide the disclosure.


Agreed, my personal preference is an iframe from a user experience perspective although from an engineering standpoint this could be a nightmare. The interstitial is somewhat industry standard, but feels very high friction. Thoughts on which is better in your opinion?


I like the iframe idea - it could actually be interesting to try to write the disclosure as marketing copy to join Refer.ly.

EG "[Firstname] thought you'd love [product name] from [vendor]. For spreading the love [firstname] gets a referral fee if you buy! Find out how you can start making money referring friends to products that you love too with Refer.ly today!"


The problem comes from frame breaking javascript. Something a non-trivial number of sites use to avoid click jacking.
