How do publishers receive product samples?

Publishers receive product samples in one of two ways:
– By ordering and paying for them directly from the shop — ideally using their own affiliate link to reduce costs and test tracking.
– Or via selecdoo, which places the order and sends the product to the publisher.

This protects shops from misuse by publishers who are only looking for free products. selecdoo also makes targeted decisions about which publishers are worth the investment — those with real revenue potential. In such cases, selecdoo handles the order and shipping without involving the shop.
