How to remove the affiliate from a Shopee link
Affiliate links on Shopee (s.shopee.co.id/…, shope.ee/…) open the product with the affiliate's ID attached. It's written as an_ plus a number, in utm_source and mmp_pid. That account earns a commission if you buy. You don't need any of these tags to see the product.

What the tags mean
| Tag | What it is |
|---|---|
utm_source=an_… mmp_pid=an_… | Affiliate ID. The number is the affiliate's account. |
uls_trackid | Share ID for the person who sent the link |
utm_… | Details of the affiliate campaign |
Shopee adds about ten tags to an affiliate link.
How to clean it
Paste the link in the link cleaner above. You get the plain link back, ready to copy.
One catch: some affiliate links come with a seller voucher. A clean link drops it too, so if you want the voucher, use the original link. The same goes for supporting the person who shared it.
