    We do not approve every affiliate. We take pre-screening measures before considering getting in touch with the affiliate. We deny lots of applicants at this point for a number of reasons. Then we'll call you up and ask you some questions. After this, we cross-reference information and decide if to accept or deny an applicants account.

    Your account could have been denied at any point (I'm not quite sure who you are exactly, but feel free to contact me with your full name and I can give you a bit more information). By denying an application, we don't mean to insult anybody, it just means based on the information provided, we don't see a solid connection between our network and the applicant.

    Unfortunately during our pre-screening process, we have denied your second application for several reasons.

    Payments have been sent out for April commissions (10 days early). Thanks to our affiliates for promoting with us. We've been adding some exciting new offers, so we look forward to working with you in the future, and welcoming other quality affiliates into the network!

    Just to keep DP posted, payments for May are going out very early, yet again. Those eligible for payments should receive their payment on June 3rd or June 4th. This is 11-12 days early. Hopefully some affiliates who receive their payments will post proof here.

    Payments went out today. I've asked several affiliates to post payment proof, so hopefully they come through by posting screenshots. Thanks to all of our affiliates.

    CPATrend will be launching a rewards program within the next few months. In order to make it exactly what our affiliates want it to be, we've created a simple 1 question poll. Please vote for what you believe would be the best form of a rewards program:

    Thanks a lot.

    Each month with payments, I request that paid affiliates post payment proof here. However, they don't seem very eager to do so (judging by the fact that there isn't much payment proof posted here). However, for those who are more skeptical than not, I'd like to point you in the direction of mtmjohn's great site, affiliatepaying.com to check out our current reviews so far.

    I hope this eases some peoples minds about our network. If not, feel free to wait for more payment proof. You may also contact me at any time if you have any questions.

    If you have plans to offer Mobile offers or Email submit with Gateway like CPALead then send me pm with the expected date to add such feature and I might consider your network.

    Thanks for your interest Karismapie. Unfortunately, a gateway is not an immediate plan of ours. We're still working on fully developing the non-incentives aspect of our company. We certainly do have the long term goal of adding a gateway system, and already have blueprints of what we would like the gateway program to be like. However, this plan will not be put into effect in the immediate future.

    We do allow incentives, but we don't work with many incentives publishers. Our offers are mainly, at the moment, for non-incentives publishers. We welcome incentives publishers to sign up as well, but we will only be accepting the top incentives publishers.

    Can you elaborate (on here or via PM) what kind of incentive offers you typically have, and what it means to be a top publisher?

    The types of incentives offers that we have, typically are lead generation offers, free giveaway/survey type offers, email submits. We also have some offers, for example a particular ringtone offer, that pays $xx.xx per non-incentives conversion, and pays a bit less for incentivized conversions.

    When I used the term top publisher to discuss incentives publishers, that term is used loosely at our discretion. Basically, there's thousands upon thousands of GPT type incentives sites, mostly with poor quality traffic and owners that scam their members. We do not deal with many GPT sites, and will only really deal with the top tiered, trustworthy incentives-based sites, with quality, verifiable traffic (and very high traffic at that).

    1) You may use our network for anything that is not illegal or adult. According to our terms of service:

    "Ensure that all materials posted on your Media or otherwise used in connection with the Affiliate Program (i) are not illegal, (ii) do not infringe upon the intellectual property or personal rights of any third party and (iii) do not contain or link to any material which is harmful, threatening, defamatory, obscene, sexually explicit, harassing, promotes violence, promotes discrimination (whether based on sex, religion, race, ethnicity, nationality, disability or age), promotes illegal activities (such as gambling), contains profanity or otherwise contains materials that CPATrend informs you that it considers objectionable (collectively, "Objectionable Content"). "

    2) A gateway is strictly an incentivized way of making money. You are forcing people to complete an offer in order to receive something for it. However, without the gateway, you would use banners, PPC, PPV, email marketing, social media marketing, media buys, and many other various forms of legitimate marketing where you do not force a person to purchase a product or submit a lead form, but they choose to do so based on your marketing. Our network is based upon these forms of marketing, much more so than incentives-type marketing.
