Hi all,
I a looking for a affiliate script to my site. I will only run pay per sales program. Can anyone recommand a good script to me?

I also have some scripts to consider:

ccshare http://www.tools4webmasters.com/ccshare.htm
Affiliate Script http://memberscripts.com./
Ultimate Affiliate http://www.groundbreak.com/cgiperl/affiliate_package.html

Is there anyone have any experiences of the above script? Thanks for any comment in advanced.

Bear,

Honestly, you're nuts to even try a pps sponsor proggy with some bullshit $200 script. It's gonna be nothing but pain for you. As I see it, you have 3 choices: buy a reasonable script that's available, have one written for you, or find out how much it would cost to license one from a big proggy that wrote one already.
The only predone ones we looked seriously at were: http://truestats.humaniq.com/ - too expensive for what it does(IMO)
and the other one I can't remember the url, the email addy is: marketing@prowebsro.cz

Good Luck.

Thanks for your comment.

But what I trying to do is using the ibill affiliate system. So that's why I am looking for a affiliate script.

What I thought is people can't easily cheat pay per sales program. Because it unlike pay per click or pay per fix amount of sign up. I just share the 50% revenue with other webmaster and I won't even pay something like $50 per sign up stuff. Is it still dangerous of being cheated?

If I knew how an affliate script worked, what it needs to do et cetera, I am pretty sure I could write one. I understand it's a demand for it anyway.

Does it need to handle absolutely everything itself? Right down to charging the credit card?

Bear,

Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought "pay per sale" = ""pay per signup". The best "cheap" partner script I can think of is clickman.com for $500.

I just noticted the RevShare program can track the stats. So why web site still want to use their own script like ccshare?

Well clickman does have its minor issues still but its improving as time passes. Personally i think its a great script and very easy to understand and analize the stats with my sponsor.

Why would you use such a script?

Well it allows you to track hits to catch spammers possible false signup generations along with other useful purposes.

You can start a program with ccbill and use their interface but personally i think its a pain to navigate and not all processors have that type of interface eather. Also you will always need some form of local script to setup the users access on your end after the billing has been proessed even with ccbill.

There is a pretty good freebee Accounts Manager for ibill at http://www.cgi-factory.com however this is not a rev share script its simply a way to setup the accounts after the user joins. For rev share you should go with clickman to start then upgrade if you feel a need but for CC processing and payments i think it will be all you need.

I would advise AGAINST clickman.

Thanks a lot for you guys suggestion.

Becasue what I really want is to use ibill Revshare.And let ibill to send checks to the webmaster. So I don't really need a program to show all the stats. Webmasters can log into ibill and see how much they earn. As for logging traffic, tools4webmasters said their script provide a simple stats for webmaster to see how much traffic they send. So I might go with their script. If you have a better suggestion, please let me know.
