What Do I Need To Do To Get Involved?
We want to make sure that you have everything you need to make the most of this year’s International Performance Marketing Awards, so we’ve put together this handy step-by-step guide with everything you need to know!
Take a Look at Our Brand New Categories
Included this year are new categories for Social Commerce, Programmatic Advertising, and Best Brand Performance Campaign, as well as ‘One to Watch’, which will recognise exceptional changemakers who are pushing the boundaries of performance marketing across the globe.
There’s also the Best Use of Performance during COVID. This category aims to celebrate the achievements of those who have successfully adapted their strategies and navigated the pandemic, benefiting both customers and the brand.
Visit the IPMA website for the full list of categories.

Make Sure You’re Registered to Vote
As in previous years, voting will be used in conjunction with the judges scores to determine the winner of Best Affiliate Network, Best SaaS Platform and Best Performance Marketing Agency.
This year, you will need to register to vote in our voted categories. This enables us to qualify every single vote, and allocate scores based on company size, revenue and other data points, whilst still counting the votes of smaller affiliates and partners. There will be one vote per company, with full details of how to register to vote being announced in the coming weeks, so stay tuned by signing up for our newsletter.
