Whats the difference between a domain reseller and affiliate?

[Seltezer]

I know if I have an affiliate site I can refer people to other domain sites, but if my site was a reseller would that mean my site would use the services of another domain site while my site is hosting? So do I only need one other domain site to register rather than others? Need help please :/

An affiliate gets a commission for referral traffic through a tracking link.

A domain reseller is like your own storefront, it's usually branded, but basically is running GoDaddy or whoever's retail system.

Pretty sure that the commission structures are much different.
