Which CPA Networks are Trustworthy?

by James Liberty
25 replies
I keep reading that there are several CPA networks
who will not fully credit you for all the sales and
conversions you make. (In other words, they
shave your payouts).

That said, can we start a list here of CPA networks
that are honest, trustworthy, and who will actually
pay you fairly for all of your sales and conversions?

Which CPA networks make honest payouts?

      I'm not just talking about receiving money. I'm talking about receiving all of the money you rightfully earned.

      Many people have said that some of the networks don't truly pay you your full earnings. It would be nice if we had a list of networks that were truly honest with their payouts.

    Hey James,

    To be honest, if you are promoting email/zip submits, it is unlikely you'll find a network that will pay you for every single lead you create, shaving is bad but unfortunately is just the way the industry works.

    If the advertiser is receiving batches of leads that don't convert on the backed then they will lose money, instead of pulling the offer completely they shave some leads here and there to reduce the impact of poor leads.

    It's something that you have to be aware of when promoting zip/email submits and need to factor into your campaigns. If you're seeing a huge portions of your leads being shaved then you need to ask questions or move networks, buit if only a handful are being scrubbed then take it on the chin and push on.

    I'm currently with Adscend Media, Pointclicktrack, Copeac and Blamads....they're all trustworthy and I believe they don't scrub...a lot.
    Sticking to the market leaders is the best choice, although there are new CPA networks that are rising in popularity.

      I suggest you stay away from limelightcpa.com it's nothing more than a scam basically, at least the email/zip submit cpa ads. If you pay close attention, it's just other cpa publishers trying to get you to publish their own cpa ads.

        What are you even talking about? All of our Email submits are direct from the advertiser. We also do not broker any email submits or own any ourselves.

        3 posts....yea your someone people should trust :rolleyes:

          Regardless of where it came from, it was on limelightcpa.com, if you're letting phony advertisers publish in your site, that's your responsibility. And what does the fact that I'm new here have anything to do with this? What can I possibly gain from this, except letting others know of my experience. I emailed you on this, and you just blew me off. Even your reply here is bad...

          I suggest going somewhere else, my 2 cents...

    If you want to know about the legit CPA networks today, go to AffiliatePaying.com or Offervault. They review which ones are legit and paying, and which ones are not. I hope you may find this very useful.

    People don't realize that it's not always a network that does the shaving, advertisers shave once in a while to make up for poor leads they will receive as a whole. In conclusion, EWA and Blam Ads does NOT shave ANY leads, guaranteed.

      That may be true Ryan, yet people are looking for a cpa offer that won't get ripped off PERIOD... weather its the network or the advertiser. If its the advertiser and it gets reported, the network should do something about it to maintains its integrity and trust with the cpa publishers. There are some good ones out there though, just gotta weed them out

        Well the quality of leads is a factor also.

        If the people you are advertising email submits to decide to fill in random junk like "ksvksdf@sfsdf.sdf" like many people do, then they need to compensate.

        I mean if you could GUARANTEE quality leads, then I could see where you are coming from. You can't guarantee quality leads for something like an e-mail submit though so you can't ask for any guarantees either.

      At the end of the day, people are going to split test the same offer across different networks and determine once and for all which one performs best. Perhaps it's by chance, but I've split-tested the same offer across 3 different networks and had pretty eye opening results.

    LIke Ryan said a lot of the time its the actual advertisers shaving on the back end. Mostly to compensate for bogus credit cards, canceled order, etc. When it comes to Email Submits, 99% scrub the traffic to make the traffic work.

      I have tried a few networks, so according to me EWA, BlamAds and Peerfly are the most trustworthy network.

    It's impossible for a third party to prove that a network/advertiser doesn't screw you on conversions. No one has this information except the network/advertiser.

      Have you tried the fingerprint tracker from Bevo?
      I found this really interesting.
      Bevo Media has recently introduced fingerprint tracking technology to the affiliate industry. Fingerprint tracking is a new technology in the online advertising world with the ability to identify a user based on a variety of settings within the users browser. This technology has been used in the past by large banks to detect fraudsters, top tier universities to stop cheating and other advanced areas in the CPM sector of online advertising. Bevo Media is the first to introduce this technology to the performance marketing (CPA) industry.
      The only thing is some networks, I have to send my AM the js code. Networks running on Cake is easier.

        Seems fingerprint tracking technology is awesome. If all CPA networks starts to use this technology then they will be more trusted, affiliates will relay on them about earning and conversion.
