Now that you are able to get surfers to pay for your products and/or services, you will need to pay the affiliates that delivered those surfers to your website. This is handled in the "Programs Admin". The "Programs Admin" will aid you in creating payout plans for your affiliates. Each program has several "Program Options" that can be configured to tailor the Program to your needs.
