Affiliate World Dubai. SalesDoubler Review

Published: 04.03.2025

Affiliate World Dubai is one of the most prestigious international conferences in the CPA marketing field, which annually brings together top specialists worldwide. It is not just a meeting of the industry, but a platform for knowledge exchange, new partnerships, and discussion of the future of CPA. Our SalesDoubler team also went to AW Dubai to learn about the latest trends, find new opportunities for cooperation, and bring home fresh ideas. Our colleagues have already returned and we talked to them about Affiliate World Dubai and what it was like.

Affiliate World Dubai. SalesDoubler Review

Why is this Conference important?

AW Dubai is not just one more event but an event that affects the entire CPA industry. Our colleges met with dozens of incredible specialists and made the most of their time. We learned a lot about one of the most luxurious countries and the opinions of CPA market leaders.

This is the first international conference I have attended with my colleagues. I am glad we had the opportunity to exchange experience with many partners and experts from different countries. Some conferences bring together top players from Europe or Asia, but this large-scale conference brought together industry representatives worldwide.

Why did we decide to attend AW Dubai? Firstly, it’s one of the top international conferences; secondly, it’s an opportunity to exchange experiences with partners and industry representatives from different countries and verticals; and thirdly, it’s an exclusive collaboration. And to be honest, to eat Dubai chocolate, of course (laughs)

Affiliate World Dubai is an excellent opportunity for international networking. We are trying not to miss such events; it was a must-have for us to be here. Incredible people who are experts in arbitrage, great speakers, and most importantly, new acquaintances with potential partners.

The Atmosphere of AW Dubai

AW Dubai stands out among other conferences by its level of organization and selection of participants. There are no random people here – everyone came with clear goals and is ready to work productively. People are charged with results.

The atmosphere was extremely friendly. Everyone we talked to was open to communication, and the level of professionalism was simply outstanding.

The entry threshold for participation is quite high, which automatically screens out irrelevant audiences, leaving only those who are really interested in the industry’s development. This way, we didn’t waste time and got the maximum benefit from the trip.

The atmosphere of AW Dubai

This year, Dubai hosted two major conferences: Sigma and AW Dubai. The audience was split between the two events, slightly affecting the total number of attendees. However, there were still many people, which did not prevent us from having quality networking and achieving our primary goals.

Key Insights about CPA Market from AW Dubai

It’s too early to summarize the specific results of the conference, because the main work begins after we return. However, we can confidently say that our colleagues are satisfied with the results and have brought back many new challenges for the SalesDoubler team.

In short:

  • CPA is alive and well, and we’re working on it.
  • AI is moving forward with the development of creatives and campaigns. We repeatedly emphasize that using AI in your work is worth keeping up with modern trends.
  • TikTok is becoming more and more popular. The platform remains a powerful source of traffic.
  • Pinterest is gaining momentum in different verticals.
  • DSP platforms have started to show good results.

So, in addition to classic social networks such as Facebook and Instagram, TikTok and Pinterest are gaining popularity. The world of online marketing is constantly changing, and it is important to not only follow trends but also actively test new channels to stay one step ahead of the competition.

At the conference, we were assured that communication is the most important thing. Networking, networking and more networking – then you are guaranteed high ROI! Don’t be afraid to communicate, ask questions, and look for points of contact even where it seems impossible at first glance.

AW Dubai insights

Impressions from the UAE

Travelling always opens up new horizons, inspires, and leaves bright impressions. While European cities have already become familiar to Ukrainians, Dubai is an entirely different world where futuristic architecture meets Arabian luxury, and every corner breathes grandeur and innovation.

Our team was impressed by the high level of service, the perfect cleanliness of the streets, and the convenient metro, which runs right above the motorway and offers incredible panoramas of the metropolis.

This city has its unique vibe – bright skyscrapers, luxury shops, and perfect cleanliness. But even the city of the future has its own nuances – you won’t find true coffee connoisseurs here.

It was the first time we had travelled in such a group, but that didn’t stop us from working effectively or having fun. The long journey went faster thanks to books, memes, work and humour. Another funny thing was the taxi prices. It turned out that a taxi in Budapest cost us more than in Dubai! What a twist!

Victoriya, CMO SalesDoubler

The journey took longer than the conference itself, but it was nice to be in a warm land after the cold winter, so we brought warmth.
