Introduction
Zero Ad Network pays you for traffic you're already getting.
Users subscribe for $6-$18/month to browse the web without ads, cookie banners, and paywalls. You register your site as a partner. Each month, subscription revenue is distributed to partner sites based on how much time subscribers actually spent on each one.
No ad auctions. No data brokerage. No page speed penalties. You serve content the way you want - subscribers just see a cleaner version of it.
What you earn
Every subscriber's monthly fee is split across the partner sites they visited that month, weighted by time spent. If subscribers spent 30% of their partner-site browsing time on your site, you receive 30% of their fee (after the platform's 30% operating cut).
Subscribers who don't visit any partner sites in a given month still contribute - their fee is distributed equally among all eligible publishers in the Unattributed Revenue Pool. You earn from the pool even in months without a direct subscriber visit.

What integration involves
Your site needs to send one HTTP response header on every page:
X-Better-Web-Welcome: YOUR_SITE_TOKEN
This tells the browser extension "this site is a partner." The extension then records time spent and reports it to the platform.
That's all you need if your site is already ad-free. One header, and you're eligible to earn.
If your site shows ads, cookie consent dialogs, or has a paywall, you can go further: install a server-side module that reads each visitor's subscription and conditionally removes those elements. Subscribers get a clean experience; everyone else sees the site as normal.
Find the right integration for your site
From zero to earning - three steps
- Register - Sign up and add your site to get your unique site token.
- Integrate - Add the token to your site (one line of config, a plugin, or a small middleware). Submit for review.
- Earn - Once approved, earnings accumulate with every qualifying subscriber visit.
Around a third of internet users block ads. Google's Manifest V3 further limits what ad blockers can do - but doesn't restore publisher revenue. Zero Ad Network's answer: users pay a fair subscription directly, publishers earn based on real engagement, no personal data is brokered. It doesn't block anything - partner sites themselves serve clean content to subscribers.
