Hands down the most configurable and solidly supported affiliate software out there.

(I'm biased, but it's true!)

The stats reporting is lacking IMO, but I've heard it's very solid.

does nats also have a content management module for multiple sites?


also how much is the purchase price?
I see 1250$ setup and 650$ a month lease or 1500$ outright to buy it.
Is this correct?

Thanks for the info

Really, do you have a link with more info? I always thought it would be awesome if IPSP's offered cascade billing options. I assumed they didnt because it probably wouldnt be in their best interest to do so.

Do I really need all the bells & whistles? All I want is for an affiliate to refer through one number & get paid for whichever biller the surfer gets processed from (payments coming from either CCBill or Ibill. Basically just track from start to finish. Maybe I'm off the wall but a monthly recurring charge or surplus charges based on hits seems expensive.

Anybody using the ones mentioned above? How happy are you with them? & how happy are your affiliates with it?


What does a programmer charge for something simple?


Thanks for all the responses.

The disadvantage of most cascading systems is that you have to send the checks yourself(to your affiliates)

Any ready to buy packages/software that keeps all "the stuff"at the processors? Like escortbiz has with Tushycash?

Andre, I don't want to take care of making the payments - let the processors do it - thought I saw one that was allowing the processors to continue making the payments. (just out of my cost range though)

Are you using something right now?

I actually had a coder give me an quote based on a bunch of my needs & cool additions - (at the time we were supposed to have partners). Maybe if there are a few of us, he can make it a little more interesting for us.

Gotta find the quote.

Hi,

Well advantage of a product that is already there, is that it is faster to install. I mean you don't need to tweak, beta test, test again etc. It has to be damn stable to handle a lot of traffic. A product that proved his stability is a plus then.

what we, the small programs webmasters, need is just a script wich will subscribe every partner who signups to all our billers , then cascade the affiliates traffic thru the billers , then the billers take care of issuing checks to the affiliates . in the members area the affiliates should be able to see their traffic stats and see with wich billers they made sales ( they can have links to their accounts if they want to check directly)


it is not complicated to code i think , and i'm sick and tired of all these companies proposing scripts with too much useless glitter for prices ranging from 1200 to 7600$, what a bunch of crooks.

a script like i described above should cost no more than 350-400$.

its doable , its just that these companies think that all webmasters can cash out loads of money so they inflate the prices , its like tgp scripts some are proposing tgp scripts costing 800$ and some propose scripts at 80$ that are twice as good .

Meant to ask Giorgio_xo the same thing....couldn't find them either :-)


As for the price - maybe a little more than 300-400$ but not much more - in fact, I think there's more of a market for this than there is for the 7k ones.......how many small website owners are waiting & hoping for such a script??? If there is a monthly recurring charge that's understandable but some are ridiculous. Charging based on clicks (or surplus charging based on clicks) shouldn't be a factor - since between trades & unproductive traffic, it could cost well more than what it brings in!

Actually, my program isnt even "officially" open. We only started allowing webmasters to sign up to it a few months ago. We arent going to offically announce it until our next site is added. But we are growing at almost 35% a month and I would say that nats is largely responsible for that. Nats is perfect for an affiliate program of ANY size.

DOes NATS allow the processors to send the checks or do you have to cut the checks yourself?

If you're concerned about cost and quality at the same time definitely talk to the folks over at TabooRevenue.

Taboo Dude posted this link: http://www.trackingsoft.com/newroia.pdf

The page may be a bit intimidating but if you'll hit one of the ladies up on ICQ or Email they are fantastic to work with and also promote the hell out of your program for you. So you actually get marketing services wrapped into that deal. It's affordable enough that a very very small operation can use them successfully.

Thanks for the nice words undermyspell,

Trixxxia, the fact of the matter is we have been selling affiliate software solutions longer than anybody listed on this page. We started back in 97 and have serviced 1000 of websites, with over 200 clients currently in the mainstream, over 20 in the adult market, ranging from 0 dollars in sales a month to over 2 million a month per program.

Not tooting my my horn, (well maybe I am) but you will not find anyone more experienced in these type of solutions, especially here.

We may be new to the adult community but we are veterans in the mainstream.

If you need anything, hit one of our ladies up on ICQ, they will help you in any way they can.

Good luck with your program

BTW, here was our mainstream site back in 98
http://web.archive.org/web/199902211...com/index4.htm

Being able to write a script and having over 7 years experience in the field is a little different. We know how cheaters cheat, we know what works and what doesn't.

Again good luck

I found it in the webmasters area... It seems to be in beta and right now they only have ccbill on the cascade. I don't think isps lose anything, if they don't accept that person's card, then that person is done for them they can't make no money off of him, so why not send it to someone who may make money off of him?

While I wont pay $13k for a script that may cause me grief down the road, (think mpa2); I do think that script writers deserve to be fairly compensated. $350 is likely going to insult them.

We use NATS, and I couldn't be happier with it. They're great people, the rollout was painless even with a bunch of customizations, and even as good as the software is, there are new improvements and features every time I turn around.

Cheers

NATS looks very good and i'm really eager to buy it , but my prog is just started and i think its way overpriced , why don't companies understand that if the price is right they will sell more , even if they have to bill the support , i mean most people never use support anyway

Hi doober,

We do offer a CMS Module.

You got something wrong with the prices though:
Setup for lease customers is $1250, setup for outright-buy customers is $1500. The lease price per month is $650, for a quote for you if you want to buy it outright, contact me on ICQ (1889711) or AIM (fthylmann)

it is not complicated to code i think , and i'm sick and tired of all these companies proposing scripts with too much useless glitter for prices ranging from 1200 to 7600$, what a bunch of crooks.

a script like i described above should cost no more than 350-400$.

My oppinion might be biased, but I think a little different on this issue.

Good affiliate software, like NATS, is much more than just a "cascading" system with a few stats. The point of such a system is to offer the owner ANYTHING he might need to GROW his program to your "small" size to a bigger one. Your so-called "useless glitter" is what makes big programs big and what helps smaller programs to grow to a size where for example our $650 monthly lease price does not matter.

Good affiliate software needs to help you make the right choice at right time about various issues by providing valuable reporting and statistics.

Good affiliate software, in my oppinion, needs to let you run more than just partnership (percentage) based programs, but also per join or per active member type programs.

Good affiliate software needs to offer you advanced features like Follow Me programs or Console Free Tours or Cross Sale Management.

All of the above helps you maximize your ROI, and all of the above needs a lot of development which costs a lot of money. It also makes you a lot of money which makes the prices of the good products not at all too expensive.

thats the problem , only big programs can afford to spend this money as they have already a good members base , the prog can be payed in one day of signups , but in the case of small programs , have you ever considered a intermediary solution wich could be evolutive , to help small proggies get a kick start without getting washed of all their funds before they even get their first signup?

just a thought.

i must add small programs don't need any pay per signup option as they usually don't have enough cash in store to pay the first webmasters sending sales .

You are of course correct, but its the ability to offer it at some point which makes it so powerful.

Regarding your earlier question if we have an intermediary solution, I will have to say no, not right now. But you never know what might happen in the future

Wow.....thanks for all the responses!

Nathan - If the most basic of modules or part of the scripts were available to say startups - then you'd have:
1) a more affordable product = more small clients
2) you'd be retaining your clients for the 'next' module, simply because not everyone wants to start switching from one software to the other.
3) more talk about your program within the industry.


While making a big sale is good - making 100s of little ones, that will have to grow into the next module may be better to take you forward for a few years.

That's the way I see it. Not trying to offend programmers - thinking through the processes and then programming it to actually be tracked & more is surely not an easy task & you surely want to be rewarded (rightly so) but being rewarded by 10 right away instead of 100 who will probably reach your full modules within 2 years seems to be better business (numbers used just for comparisons)



Giorgio_xo - thanks for the links - going to check them out now.

lacorporacione - I don't think we have a problem with processing, we have a problem with getting all our surfers processed & accepted.

SABAI -- I have my moneyfrog I'm rubbing and the incense burning through - trying both :-)

well, we were just kinda brainstormin and exchanging ideas.

some pretty decent ideas went out of it , but as far as to know if and when it would take place i guess the best thing is to see that with Nathan himself.

but i'm glad that you and i are sharing the same views, and that Nathan is interested in hearing it and see what could be done.

The one that looks like it's 'affordable' to start is :
http://www.speira.com/index.php Monolith V2.0 - anyone have feedback? Looks complete - looks well thought out..

Feedback from users would be nice!

Some of the others in that list were way off the wall in pricing though - others have no price - just a contact us - which to me signifies 'off the richter scale priced' hehehe......
