Can anybody explain this
I am trying to build a voucher affiliate site
just need to understand the main steps involved
do you get voucher feeds from the networks?
or do you get them from each program?
@Graybeard yes traffic will be SEO
and no I am not scared or delusional
well ok maybe a bit (of both)
 
By vouchers I am assuming that you mean discount code or coupon codes?

Merchants and not the networks themselves issue these codes or coupon deals.
Usually, merchants will email the short (or medium) term codes to their affiliates --this the norm from what I have seen in the past.
A network api for this would be nice --but I don't think that exists (or I haven't seen it).

Perfect
So then I am assuming this -->
  1. merchant emails code
  2. each code is input manually by affiliate
  3. affiliate sets start & end dates
  4. plus affiliate ID
  5. affiliate gets paid for purchase
have I got it roughly correct?
 
Can you plug in a direct feed from the merchant?
I am doing more research
found a useful post on Authority Hacker
10 affiliate coupon sites rated
  1. Coupons.com
  2. Top Cashback
  3. Local Flavor
  4. Advanced Coupons
  5. Walmart Affiliate Program
  6. Rakuten Rewards Program
  7. WikiBuy
  8. Deal Taker
  9. Ibotta
  10. Honey.com
 
Pretty much
with the exception of that any expiration is the date set by the merchant --not the affiliate
your commission is usually pro-rated(lowered) to the discounted selling price (however).
 
Answering my own question
turns out yes you can plug in voucher feed
  1. set up Wordpress site
  2. activate voucher code plugin
  3. then connect to voucher feed
Voila!
 
Constructing a voucher affiliate site, even a year after your initial inquiry, remains an interesting and relevant topic. If you're still pursuing this endeavor or if others are seeking similar advice, here's some guidance to help you navigate the process.

Additionally, you keep link stuffing posts. You have been messaged and warned 3 times now. READ YOUR F***ING MESSAGES!
 
Affiliate marketing takes time, but with dedication and a bit of fearlessness (we all have that!), you can create a successful voucher affiliate site.
