Adding a New Program

NATS4 allows you to create either a new Enabled or Disabled Program in the Programs Admin. You can customize your program options and configure your payout settings after adding the program. Like Cascades, these programs must be associated with sites that accept traffic from this Program. These associations must be made after the program is added -- otherwise the Program will not work properly.

Creating a New Program

Go to Programs Admin and click either the Create a New Enabled Program or Create a New Disabled Program link under your Programs list.

  • Enabled Programs will automatically enroll all new affiliates when they create a account.
  • Disabled Programs do not automatically enroll affiliates-- affiliates must be added manually to a Disabled Program.

Create New Programs

Special Note: new enabled programs do not automatically enroll current affiliates. For more details, please see the NATS4 Programs Admin article.

Extended Payouts

The Payout Extension Description provides an explanation of the string added to an extended payout. For example a dating site can create a special extended payout that pays $1.00 for every free profile created and authenticated. This field describes that payout since extended payouts are not included in the payout description. (Please ask technical support to help you setup extended payouts.)

Configuring Payout Settings

To edit the Program Default Payouts, click the right-side Edit Program Details icon and scroll down to Program Default Payouts. To add custom payouts for specific affiliates, enter the affiliate's username in the Username box, fill out the payout fields, and click the Add button.

Applying this Program to your Sites

You must associate your program with a site before affiliates can use the program in that site. If you don't make this association, your programs will not be available for those sites. Adding sites to a Program from the Programs Admin can be done individually or globally. You may add specific sites or all sites in NATS to this program.
