How do I get paid?
Prosperent pays publishers net30 which means we pay you 30 days after commission event takes place. This gives merchants time to see if a product is returned, or otherwise needs to be delayed for whatever reason.
How can I get started as a Prosperent Publisher?
I’m glad you asked. Sign Up. It’s quick and easy!
Would we put this ad code directly onto our site, or would it need to be run via an ad server?
The ad code can be placed directly, no need to run it via an ad server.
What type of code will it be?
Our ad code is javascript, very similar to Google Adsense for example.
How can we track our earnings?
We have a comprehensive reporting system in place that allows you to see which pages are generating earnings, which city/state/country the sales are coming from, and which individual products and retailers are providing those sales.
What impact will this have on our page load times?
Page loads are not impacted. The way we load our javascript, it loads last on the page, so even if we were ever slow, your site would not be impacted.
Would we have control of what type of ads do and do not show on our site?
Our algorithm's handle the bulk of that, but yes, we can filter specific merchants, brands, and products based on your needs.
What is the revenue split?
We take a 30% commission and pay you the other 70%. If you are a larger publisher this split changes to 80/20.
Do we get paid per view or per action? If so, what are the estimated rates?
Per action. Our average order size is $145.00. Our average commission is $15.44.
Can we implement through our ad serving technology Openx?
Yes, you can use this with openX. Just place our javascript in rotation like you would any of your other ads.
What are the comissions paid and terms?
The commission rates vary from merchant to merchant, but we are always negotiating the highest rates in the industry. We pay out net30 like most networks. The only exception is when a merchant that we work with extends a commission based on their return policy. Our reporting interface reflects this and allows you to see the status of each commission. It's the same as what you would experience with any of the other affiliate networks like commission junction.
Can I change the number of links highlighted by ProsperLinks?
Yes, you are able to control the number of links that show up on your pages, and you control the style of those links.
