is there anything in the TOS that prevents us from implementing an affiliate program ourselves using deep linking?

I am interested in creating an affiliate program with my app. I want to reward people who refer others to download and use my app.

The app will be free to download but with IAPs.

I know Apple pulled the plug to your affiliate system last year, but is there anything in the TOS that prevents us from implementing an affiliate program ourselves using deep linking?

According to your dev account agreement, employing affiliate links only require that such 'behavior is disclosed to the user'...


Beyond my opinion that perhaps a simple disclosure that users are forced to trip over in the process would suffice when it comes time to satisfy App Review, I'm not privy to any current info on what that means, exactly.
