Wasn't sure, but it mostly works

PriceI hesitated because people complained about fees and glitches. In the end it does the job — a bit flaky sometimes, but support sorted most issues. I just wish fees were smaller.
Almost bailed, but glad I tried
Almost bailed, but glad I tried
PriceI almost bailed when I saw a $5 signup charge — felt odd, like other networks don't do that. I had a few bad runs with affiliate platforms before, so I was wary. Ended up trying it anyway; the fee was charged but they refunded me after my account wasn't approved, and access worked fine when it was. So yeah, my nerves calmed. Glad I gave it a shot, not as shady as I feared
Sign up experience
Sign up experience
PriceDon't even bother signing up, eh. They charge your card right away but then take forever to actually get your account goin'. And get this, they ask for all sorts of personal info that ain't even necessary, like your driver's license and proof of address, just for some affiliate program. Save yourself the hassle and just go with Amazon, eh.
Fee for joining network
Fee for joining network
PriceI didn't really want to sign up for this network because they were asking for $5 through credit card. Most legit affiliate networks don't make you pay to join, and it seemed weird to me that they wouldn't give your money back if they reject your application. It felt kinda sketchy, especially since they changed their name to cover up their history. Just to give you an idea, Amazon has tons of products available without any joining fee.
Advertiser experience
Advertiser experience
PriceMy experience wasn't great, eh. The joining fee was way too pricey and they also tacked on a monthly admin fee on top of that. Canceling was a nightmare - had to fork over a huge fee to get out of it. Found out later that so many of the sign-ups were fake, and when we asked for our money back, they made us jump through hoops and then flat-out said no. Not cool, eh. Save yourself the headache and steer clear of these guys.
