When the stars align: why horoscope traffic peaks during January 2026

Do you think the horoscope niche is driven more by luck than by consistency? Well, in practice, it is a stable, predictable and well-controlled vertical, and we’re about to show you why!
Every year, performance peaks in winter, particularly in late December and January. So if you’re planning to launch ad campaigns at the start of 2026, now is the perfect time to put horoscopes on your radar.

Not a seasonal trend, but a recurring pattern
Our conclusions aren’t written in the stars, they're backed by real data. A quick look at annual revenue figures from the Mobstra affiliate network in the horoscope niche tells the story clearly.

December and January are the strongest months in the vertical. On average, they account for up to 30% of total annual revenue, making them the main drivers of the year’s overall performance.
This isn’t a one-off surge — it’s a pattern that repeats year after year, and it’s easy to explain from a psychological point of view:

Year-end reflection: the end of the year is a time for taking stock and asking what the new year holds — from career and finances to relationships.
Planning for the year ahead: many look for guidance on what to pay attention to, and what to be wary of.
Emotional mindset: the festive, almost magical atmosphere lowers scepticism, builds trust in “signs” and intuition, and makes people more open to spontaneous decisions.

Right now is the perfect moment for a decisive launch.

Why you should launch now

Traffic is still widely available, and competition remains low. While most media buyers are focused on the usual verticals, the horoscope niche with multiple monetisation models (especially Click2Call and BS Flow) delivers a clear advantage. Social media platforms treat it as a fully compliant product, and the audience is far broader than the tightly restricted, approval-heavy gambling space.
You can scale across markets with a combined population of over 400 million. The product is live across 20+ GEOs. That gives you plenty of room to scale, test different angles and localise your messaging without worrying about hitting a ceiling too soon.
The psychological trend is only getting stronger. After several years of global uncertainty, people are actively looking for guidance, structure and reassurance about the future. January 2026 is set to be the peak of this demand. Campaigns that start speaking to users in this mindset now will build trust early and achieve the highest possible conversion rates.
This is a real opportunity to diversify your revenue mix. Adding a predictable, high-performing vertical like this to your portfolio reduces risk and creates a new, stable source of revenue.

Your key advantages: creativity and direct support

Standard setups no longer deliver results. In 2025/2026, sending Facebook traffic to a generic landing page is one of the fastest ways to waste budget — regardless of the vertical. What works now are engagement-first funnels. For example, Facebook chatbots that start with real user questions and pain points, gradually warming the audience before guiding them towards a call or a subscription. These flows will help you stand out from repetitive launches, and keep users engaged for longer.
You’re not working alone — you have a strategic partner. You’re working directly with the advertiser. We don’t just supply an offer — we build and develop the product ourselves. For our partners, that means:

Tailored setups for your audience. We customise landing pages, call scripts and forms to match your specific target audience.
Ready-made landing pages. We offer tested pages that make it easy to understand the product and launch your first tests quickly.
24/7 expert support. From creatives and funnels to technical setup — we’re always available when you need help.

What you get is a live, working product, not a glossy promise.

In-product payment models — no holds, no approvals
Mobstra offers two monetisation models that can be adapted to different traffic sources and volumes:

Click2Call. Calls are handled by AI rather than a traditional call centre, keeping users engaged for an average of 7–8 minutes. Every minute is monetised and instantly reflected in your stats as a conversion. No hidden conditions — just transparent earnings.
BS Flow (Subscriptions). A flexible model that works well both for direct card payments and for more advanced funnels with upsells.

We manage the entire funnel, from landing page to payment. That means proven ideas from other verticals can be quickly adapted here. You bring the concept — we help turn it into results.

How to get the most out of this season
To put yourself in the strongest position, start now:

Sign up as a partner and get access to the product. It usually takes under a minute.
Discuss your traffic ideas and target audience with our manager. We’ll help assess the potential and explore customisation options.
Launch tests without worrying about approvals, holds or cash flow. None of that applies here. We’ll guide you through every step!

Don’t follow trends — create them.
