An Affiliate Program offers you the opportunity to become an advertiser for us on a cost per action basis. A cost per action means that for every time you send a visitor from your site to our site and that visitor makes a purchase, we will pay a commission based on the sales value.

We consider our program to be a leader in its field as our commissions and average order value rank higher than the industry average, which has been attributed to our strong brands and excellent reputation within the industry.

There are at least three parties in an affiliate program:

1. The customer
2. The affiliate site
3. The merchant site

Affiliate programs have grown enormously in popularity, taking on many forms. For many web sites that don't deal much in e-commerce (selling products or services online) themselves, functioning as an affiliate is a good way to participate in e-commerce.

IAS’ Affiliate Program pays 10% commission on all sales orders for unique new customers. These customers are registered as affiliate customers and IAS pays commissions on these customers for ALL future transactions with IAS.

Commissions are paid by calendar quarter for amounts above $500 or, if less than $500, they will accumulate until the next calendar quarter.

If you are interested in joining our Affiliate Program simply Request an application form.

What happens next?

We will evaluate your application in good faith, and will notify you of your acceptance or rejection. This will ultimately depend on the quality, structure, content and overall compatibility of your website.

Once notified that your site has been accepted into the program, you may provide on your site one or more of the following types of links to the IAS site:

Product links:

You can select any number of products to be listed on your site, which can have graphical and text references to that particular product. A Product Link will be set from each product reference on your site to the corresponding IAS online catalog entry.

Special Link:

We will provide you with guidelines and graphical artwork to use in linking to our home page. To permit accurate tracking, reporting, and referral fee accrual, we will provide you with special “tagged” link formats to be used in all links between your site and our site.

We then pay you referral fees on product sales achieved through either of these product or special links.
