    Who has experience of incentive marketing?

    I would like to know what people who use it think about it.

    From my small amount of research so far it looks like you get paid to fill in offers at affiliate programs.

    Does it really work in such simple terms?

    "so far it looks like you get paid to fill in offers at affiliate programs."
    Huh?

    It sounds like you don't fully understand what incentive marketing is. An Incentive is a thing that motivates or encourages someone to do something, in affiliate marketing, that "something" would be to complete an offer, a download, a mobile subscription. The incentive would then be unlocked for the user. Incentives can be anything from movies, virtual currency, ebooks, or cash. You aren't filling out anything yourself unless you've joined a GPT site...

    Does it work? Yeah, it works... too well actually. Advertisers are locking down on incentive advertising, a lot stopped allowing movie and cash incentives for their offers. Facebook is also cracking down on networks providing incentive offers.

    thanks for the info. It's interesting that they are starting to shut them down when I was thinking to start up a program that pays cash for what you have done

    Incentives are always a good thing. I use them to get massive amounts of traffic which translates into profit.
