Affiliates and affiliate sales are the lifeblood of many online businesses today. And smart marketers know that a good affiliate program can spell the difference between a business limping along on life support versus a well oiled super car on the broadband info highway.

gave you the best affiliate tools possible to ensure you can easily
attract, manage and reward your best affiliates and do it all

Super Affiliate Program
Super Affiliates are literally worth their weight in Gold. 1 Super Affiliate will typically drive more sales than then next 100 affiliates combined. Super Affiliates all know who they are and they also will require special consideration to remain on your team and selling strong for you.
It's very common that a true Super Affiliate will either ask for a
better commission rate than you're offering to your other affiliates
or a smart affiliate manager will know who the super affiliates are
and go out and get them and offer a better rate as incentive.
We've automated the entire process so you can land that whale of an
affiliate, set them up with special landing page URL's plus special
commission rates ...and do it all on auto-pilot.
- Super Affiliate Bonus Options - Pay your super
affiliate their bonus based upon a fixed dollar amount per sale or a
percentage of the sale. You can set this bonus to be anything you
choose and no 2 super affiliates need to be treated the same i.e.
there are "super affiliates" and then there are "MEGA-SUPER
affiliates".
- Product Based Bonuses - Set the super affiliate bonus on
a product by product basis.
- Graphical Bonus Reporting - It's not enough to simply pay
the bonus, the super affiliate needs to see that they're receiving a
bonus. We report the super affiliate bonus separately so they can
see their normal commission and their bonus commission in the report
graphs.
- Increase or Decrease Bonus Rates - Performing above or below expectations? Easily adjust their bonus rate to match or motivate their performance.
Custom Landing Pages / URL's - Super affiliates often do things a little differently and often need special landing pages ...either on your site or off your site. Having the ability to offer unlimited custom URLs creates unlimited flexibility and creativity to configure custom sales paths for your "supers". **Custom landing URL's are available to all affiliates but are controlled by the admin.
Progressive Affiliate Program
Motivate your affiliates with a performance based system that pays out increased commissions based upon achieving pre-defined sales levels that you establish.
- Sales Based Commission Levels - The more they sell, the
more they earn. It's a simple formula to driving increased sales
levels.
- Cumulative Volume - Set volume goals that only need to be
meet one time to achieve the higher commission levels.
- Time and Volume - Volume goals reset based upon a
specific time period. Resetting the commission level each
month encourages your affiliates to hit their sales goals month
after month and avoids paying top commission rates to "one hit
wonders".
- Unlimited Volume Increments - Keep it simple with just a few volume increments or keep the proverbial carrot perpetually dangling inches in front of their nose with a volume of sales increments / commission levels to keep them hungry to achieve the next commission level.
Super Affiliate System Integration - Progressive commissions integrate seamlessly with the super affiliate bonus program so you can still provide additional motivation and reward your super affiliates.
