as it stands right now, I have to redo our tour for affiliates to take away the store link on the page, that way their is no traffic leak, but if mpa3 had the ability to create a shopping cart in it's system, then affiliates can get credits for the sales they send from hits they send to the websites

jeez, i feel like I repeating myself here
Hi Jace,

NATS does not have a shopping cart built in, simply because NATS is not a shopping cart but an affiliate system and we feel that putting it all in the same app lower's both ends usefulness.

NATS does _SUPPORT_ shopping carts though, without a problem. We already have integrated plenty of shopping cart solutions and there are multiple ways of doing that depending on the application you use right now.

This way you also do not have to move all your products and your stores into the a different cart just to track affiliate sales, instead you continue using your old cart and NATS next to it.
