Hey Amol, the publications I submit to are Illumination, Illumination Mirror, The Startup, Better Marketing, Freemium, and The Side Hustle Club, mostly. Not every story I write has affiliate links. I think many publications are ok with them as long as they aren't everywhere and your Medium story doesn't feel overly salesy but, if you check out the submission guidelines/rules for the publication, they'll talk about their take on affiliate links and what/what's not accepted. Hope this helps.
