The New Way Affiliate Networks Pay Publishers
By: Tomer Bar Zeev

Affiliate Networks help content owners monetize their websites. The content owners ' called publishers once they begin advertising on their sites for the Affiliate Networks ' earn micropayments when consumers click on the advertising and even perform desired activity such as make a purchase or fill out a survey.

There are hundreds of affiliate networks to choose from, but most publishers will work with a dozen or so that best suit their website and business. Leading networks include Commission Junction, LinkShare, Amazon and Google.

While business models vary, publishers are often only compensated if the potential customer performs a desired activity. Whichever the compensation method - usually cost per sale (CPS), sometimes paid for cost per action (CPA) and less common, cost per click (CPC) - Each action may equal a very small payment. Once the commissions accumulate to reach a pre-determined minimum, the contributor may request payment by a number of options. With most publishers working with about a dozen networks, the costs per payment add up. Selecting the method that is fast and convenient - with low fees per payment - is critical. For example, a publisher who chooses the wrong method, who receives 10 payments for $100 each month may pay $10 in fees and commissions for each check, or 10% of his income.

Checks and wire transfers tend to be the slowest and most expensive way to get paid - for both the recipient and the payer. Direct deposit is by far the easiest and most cost effective method available but limited to publishers with a United States bank account.

Publishers are keeping more of their paychecks, and getting them faster with the introduction of new, online payment, and offer services for international publishers and US-based publishers who do not have bank accounts. However, cashing out payments from online wallets can be complicated and can become as cumbersome as using the traditional payment methods. This is an excellent option for publishers who may have a lot of online expenses and generally spend their earnings with participating suppliers. However, cashing out payments from online wallets can complicated and can become as cumbersome as using the traditional payment methods.

Another option available to publishers with or without US bank accounts that offers easy cash-outs from ATMs is to get paid directly to co-branded prepaid debit cards such as MasterCard and Visa. The funds are transferred to the card accounts, and are accessible instantly online, at shops and restaurants or at ATMs. Furthermore, if issued by a US bank, the card accounts are FDIC insured and offer protections against unauthorized purchases.

Whether they get paid to a card, an online service or direct to a bank account, publishers around the world can now effectively monetize their content on the Internet.
