What are Unique Impressions and Unique Clicks?
Unique impression is when a banner is displayed on the affiliates web site. This does not mean that someone has or will click on the banner, it was just displayed. A unique click is when someone clicks (repeated clicks from one individual do not count) on the banner displayed. If your site’s visitor views the same banner in less than 24 hours either by re-visiting or by refreshing or reloading page then impressions do not count and non unique impressions are reported.

Time is tracked from the last unique impression timestamp, so non-unique impressions do not reset the time mark again. After 24 hours the next unique impression may be generated from same visitor. Same rule applies to unique clicks.

What is minimum payment policy?
The minimum payout threshold that must be generated for an affiliate to be eligible for the payment can be set in staff area.

What is percentage base tracking?
Percent based tracking is managed by cookies, and is quite easy to install. Advertisers are required to install a few lines of code on the confirmation or thank-you page, or output this value to the page on your site that is right after the credit card, or after specific action has been accepted.

Percentage calculation is based on total amount. Percentage set in the campaign set-up and commissions to affiliates are credited to their accounts in real time.

What is flat fee tracking?
This is one of the simplest ways of tracking and it involves small amount of code to be inserted in your thank-you or confirmation page. When our lead tracking script is called it adds a credit to the account of affiliate that referred the lead or sale. This is the fixed amount that was specified and will be paid to the affiliate. At the same time this amount will be deducted from the Advertisers account balance.

Can Advertisers automatically or manually approve affiliates to promote their campaign?
Yes, the Advertiser will select which option they prefer when setting up a campaign.

Do you provide Advertisers with a co-branded sign up page?

Any other affiliate that joins the network from their links, and which are approved, are automatically e-mailed HTML code to the Advertiser offer. As a bonus to the Advertiser we set a default 5% monthly residual for recruiting the new affiliate to the network.

Can a Advertiser remove affiliate from a campaign?
