Can I still succeed?

According to the affiliate agreement terms for Netflix under G.A.N., affiliates are not allowed to redirect domains to the offer and affiliates can only use the tracking software that GAN offers (which doesn't allow subids).

Am I the only one who thinks Netflix and GAN don't like affiliates? How can I properly track my leads if no subids are allowed? Is it still possible to succeed with Netflix with these obstacles?

    GAN tries to target webmasters instead of affiliates. You could design a site optimized for SEO to keep your costs down and use that site to promote netflicks that way you don't need to worry about tracking on the offer as much

      Yeah but what if he wants to promote using offline methods? How would he track without using sub-id? StatCounter or Analytics? LOL.

      GAN always makes things difficult, most likely because they are Google and they can. It's too bad Netflix had to partner with them, but on the bright side BlockBuster is starting to make a comeback!

    Are you saying they would cross reference the location of the people who sign up if you distributed it in some type of flyer with a link that would redirect them to your promo page?
