Instant Paypal Affiliate Scripts

by Raiel Schwartz
16 replies
I saw some sites using an Instant Paypal Affiliate script for membership sites. The script pays out an x% of sales (the direct sale and residual income).

I wanted to set up this program for my upcoming membership site but I was wondering what is the name of this script, or if they are any out there? Also, can this script deliver x% payments of back-end offers as well?

    Hi

    I think the script you're referring to is Rapid Action Profits. With the membership add on, it can certainly do what you require.

    Okay, just googled "Rapid Action Profits"

    made in 2007 and still $197.00/$297.00

    sure it's a great script. I didn't read through the whole salesletter, but it seems like a comprehensive solution, theres no "cheaper" alternative out there that just works as an affiliate program.

    Perhaps something like idevaffiliate but with instant payouts? I am using amember so I'm not really looking for a new membership script.

      Still?

      Yes!

      While we have had several price increases, we have also had good acceptance in the marketplace, allowing us to keep the price low.

    Craig,

    RAP will do exactly what you are looking for and then some. Great thing is, once you buy it, you can set it up as many times as you want. Use it for memberships (you need the RAP Members Package), use it for list building (think giveaways) and the features are beyond compare.

    If you want to understand what it will do, take time to read the whole sales page.

    Thanks,

    John

    Yes.

    The OP specifically requested info on an Instant Paypal Affiliate script

    PayDotCom does NOT pay instant commissions. Merchants can use Paypal to pay affiliates, but must do so by periodically creating MassPay files

    Hey Sid, I PMed you.

    Also, does your script integrate with already existing membership sites
    (ex: I am currently using amember and would hate for it to go to waste, can I use your script and set up affiliate program but use amember to handle sales or will it be incompatible b/c they're 2 separate scripts?)

      Responded to your PM.

      As for your question here...
      I'm afraid I really can't give a definitive answer, simply because I know little about how aMember works, and I don't want to give you false info.

      The chances of being able to handle sales and affiliate management using RAP, with aMember registration being the "deliverable", are very good. However, RAP isn't going to be able to manage affiliates if it is not also handling the sales functions.

      Hope this helps,

    Hey Sid,

    I've always wondered how refunds are handled on instant affiliate payout - ie. if a sale is refunded, does that mean I am just out the affiliate commission and I can't recall that payment back?

    Thanks!

      There are a couple of ways to handle this - one being your own suggestion.

      For inexpensive products, you might just refund the customer, and move on.

      However, more expensive products require a more professional approach with your affiliates.

      First, put an affiliate agreement on your affiliate sign up page. Make sure that your affiliates understand they are responsible for any refund requests from their customers. They are paid directly by the customer for their share of sales, so it is an easy matter for them to log into their Paypal account and refund the purchase. RAP is notified of this, and will automatically "bump" that affiliate to receive the next payment, so that commissions are kept in line.

      If the affiliate does not honor your guarantee, then you have 2 choices again...
      1. You can pay the customer out of your pocket and then Ban the affiliate. Once the affiliate is banned they receive no more payments, as subsequent sales with his/her affiliate ID revert to the merchant.
      2. You can advise the customer to request the refund directly from the affiliate (in most cases they will have done this anyway, because that's who they paid) via Paypal. Assuming the affiliate has no desire to have their Paypal account canceled - they will issue the refund.
      Hope this helps

        So, if I have RAP set up for 100% of 50% of sales, then RAP will adjust the pay to address depending on the cycle? If I am next to receive the payment from that particular affiliate, the customer will pay me directly? Then on the next sale from that affiliate, RAP will set to pay to address directly to the affiliate's PP account? Am I uderstanding that right?

        What's the difference in the $197 and the $297?

          Right on the money!

          $100 ?

          Seriously, Rapid Action Profits sells for $197.
          This provides the ability to
          • sell your digital products, with/without discount coupons, split testing of sales pages, and promote an immediate one-time offer after the front-end sale;
          • Paypal IPN processing of all payments/refunds
          • manage affiliates, instant commission payment, commission rates, and an affiliate center with affiliate tools, and affiliate sales stats;
          • maintain mailing lists of customers, affiliates, and JV partners, and do broadcast mailings to any of these groups;
          • Optional interface to any autoresponder service or self-hosted autoresponder script, via opt-in form, or (optionally) auto opt-in;

          The RAP/Memberhip Plus bundle sells for $297.
          This provides
          • All of the above, plus
          • Paypal subscription management
          • Management of membership level and access
          • Each "piece" of content can be made available
            1. Immediately
            2. Between specified dates
            3. X days after sign up (dripped content)
          • Gifting of memberships
          • Custom interface with other membership content systems
          That's off the top of my head, and I'm sure there is more - but those are the "biggies".

          The Membership Plus module included in the above bundle normally sells for $127. It is one of many Certified RAP Add Ons (think plugin), that has been developed specifically to work with RAP and extend the functionality of the core product.
