TES Affiliate Conference Returns to Prague with AI, Compliance and Payments on the Agenda

📍 Prague, Czech republic 🗓 Sep 25–28, 2026 🏛 Diplomat Hotel Conference

Create, Collaborate & Convert: the Diplomat Hotel Prague hosts four days of sessions, expo meetings and partner events from 25 to 28 September

TES Affiliate Conference is back in Prague from 25 to 28 September 2026, at the Diplomat Hotel on Evropská street. This year's theme is "Create, Collaborate & Convert." Affiliates, advertisers, paysites, traffic networks, payment providers and creator agencies will get three days of business, then a final day for partner events and departures.

Pre-registration opens on Thursday 24 September from 3 pm, sponsored by ImLive. Early arrivals can pick up badges then and skip the Friday queue. Friday opens with the Meet Market on the Loreta and Belveder show floors, from 3:30 to 6 pm. Saturday and Sunday are the main expo days, with the floors open from 10 am to 6 pm.

What's on the agenda

The seminar programme runs across five rooms. It is heavy on AI, but the practical focus is operations. ExoClick's Evan Zirdelis will demo the network's MCP integration, which lets AI assistants work directly on advertiser and publisher accounts. Other sessions cover AI retention systems for creator businesses, local versus cloud AI, and where AI spending actually pays off on adult platforms.

Regulation is a steady thread. Ofcom will give a briefing on the Online Safety Act for services with UK users. Attorney Corey Silverstein presents an age verification update and a broader legal session. VerityGuard and AMIE Vouch look at the commercial cost and revenue impact of AV compliance.

Payments get equal weight. Sessions cover:

  • Open banking as a tool against friendly fraud (ecardon)
  • High-risk bank onboarding (5 Circles)
  • APM-based subscriptions (LetPay)
  • Crypto and alternative payments (CryptoProcessing)
  • Multi-currency processing (MobiusPay)

The creator economy and dating verticals have their own tracks, with speakers from OnlyMonster, FansAPI, Supercreator, TRAFORCE and Masters in Cash. Search is covered too, including iGaming SEO architecture and optimising for LLM-driven answer engines. Panels on email deliverability and the future of media buying round out the programme.

Networking and partner events

MergedMedia's Speed Presentations run on both Saturday and Sunday. ElevateHER Hour takes place on Sunday morning, and a Texas Hold'em tournament is held that afternoon (invite only, 50 players). There are daily bars and food stations throughout, from sponsors including CrakRevenue, Chaturbate, ChargebackHelp, ASACP and Pineapple Support.

The evening calendar marks two milestones: ExoClick's 20th birthday dinner and Flirt4Free's 30th anniversary partner dinner. The main open party is Clickadu's night at FU Club & Lounge on Saturday, which requires a conference bracelet. Sunday brings Mobidea's Always Winning #6, Kadam's Traffic Playground and The Inner Circle, hosted by AdultForce, Pornhub and TrafficJunky. These events are invite only and organised independently of TES.

Airport shuttles leave the hotel regularly on Monday 28 September. The last one departs at 8:30 pm.
