CPAStorm Going to Incentive!

    A while back CPA Storm was running incentive offers then I believed they stopped. Now apparently their running nothing but straight incentive apparently now and in order to have an affiliate manager you need to be making around $1k a month!

    Your take...?

    Both statements are wrong.

    ^^ How are they wrong? When I first joined, they allowed incentive sites and then apparently stopped using them. I remember because I was going to promote an incentive product and asked my affiliate manager then was it still incentivizable and they said no, they stopped incentives apparently.

    I'm honestly a little bit nervous on whether they'll still be reliable. Has anyone been paid pretty good from them or what? I seen "flaco" says they have been paid less than $1k since May 2008. Is that good or bad (have you been sending lots of leads and not getting conversions or you haven't sent them much?)

    Apparently, if you make $1k a month then you will have a dedicated affiliate manager.

    CPAStorm is amazing. I have been paid a good amount from them. They have great campaigns and great offer conversions.

    ^^ How much have you been paid roughly if you could tell me please so that I can get a good idea of how stable they are... I don't want to promote their programs with legit info and then $3k dollar later there is nothing.

    You didn't ask me for proof. I have been using them for over a year. I haven't posted any payments by them since I get paid by check and do not feel like scanning and all that. I will however post proof in my blog as I get the checks. I can vouch for them so you can take my word or not. Thanks.

    Sorry, It all sounds too risky for me. I might try after they have a couple proven years under their belt. Good Luck

    If you are marked as an Incentive publisher - you will only see Incentive offers.

    True... but like I said, I spoke with CPAStormInfo (AIM Screenname) and they told me the following:

    1. CPAStorm is going ALL incentive! Meaning their doing incentive offers only from here on out apparently.
    2. In order to be assigned an affiliate manager, you need to be making around $1k a month minimum.
    3. Instead of NET15, publishers will be paid (like all incentive sites) - NET30

    I emailed my AM and got a reponse:

    Jennifer,

    As you have already seen, CPA Storm has been only taking incentive offers live for the past 3-6 months. Our focus has always been on incentive and loyalty marketing, and we are going to continue to operate in this manner. As for having an affiliate manager, we have re-organized accounts based on account manager strengths, plus how much commission various publishers are generating. You will have an account manager even if you are under $1K. All incentive publishers have always been paid on Net 30, so this is nothing new. Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Thanks,

    Rick Mirsky

    BankRollBucks, IDK who you had but my affiliate manager at one time said I couldn't run any of the offers on there as incentive because they were not an incentive network at the time. Maybe the messages are being confused or something, in either case, CPA Storm seems pretty good, although RevenueBoost has a few of the same offers with more payout so IDK what I want to do right now.

    I may give CPAStorm a try though, we'll see.
