American cashback service Ebates was bought for a billion dollars
The market of cashback services is still quite young and you can create your own unique selling proposition in this market. In 2014, the American cashback service Ebates was bought for a billion dollars by the Japanese company Rakuten. According to various sources in Ebates at that time there were only 8 million users against 300 million people in the country. This means very little penetration of the understanding of cashback services to the masses.
Global B2C Ecommerce Sales 11% annual growth
Physical product sales dwarf digital. This is a 1 trillion dollar market. A large percentage of these sales are dominated by global brands. The compound annual growth rate from 2016-2020 is expected to be around 11% Cost per acquisition (CPA), also known as Cost per action or pay per acquisition (PPA) and cost per conversion, is an online advertising pricing model where the advertiser pays for a specified acquisition - for example a sale, click, or form submit (e.g., contact request, newsletter sign up, registration etc.) Direct response advertisers often consider CPA the optimal way to buy online advertising, as an advertiser only pays for the ad when the desired acquisition has occurred. The desired acquisition to be performed is determined by the advertiser. In affiliate marketing, this means that advertisers only pay the affiliates for leads that result in a desired action such as a sale. This removes the risk for the advertiser because they know in advance that they will not have to pay for bad referrals, and it encourages the affiliate to send good referrals.

Press about our cashback services
Cashback service allows you to return money back from online shopping
We use Django/python for development. Python is one of the TOP3 popular program languages.
Over the years of developing cashback services, we have developed adglink.com, a special CPA platform, which takes care of all complex operations, billing, integration, etc. At the same time, only the necessary and aggregated data provide to the cashback service, giving it ease and the ability to quickly unfold and change.
The cashback services market, as well as the online sales market, is growing by at least 11% every year and is still far from saturation. So far, less than half of people are buying on the Internet, and few percents use cashback services. This means that the market is still raw and a new player can always appear who will take his market share. Also, the presence of other players suggests that the market exists and you can earn very well on it.
The EXTRA package contains START and includes additional functionality. MAX contains all the functionality of the Extra package but also operates independently of the adglink.com CPA platform.
The base rate for adglink.com customers is 10%. This means that each cashback will be retained 10% for using the platform. No subscription fee
We integrate different sources and different countries. By default, you will receive about 1,200 stores that are present in the Russian and international markets. You can also connect international providers with whom you will get 2500-5000 stores.
Coupons will be updated automatically for those stores in which they are present. The basic coupon update period is 3 hours.
Basic packages include manual payment to users and can be integrated with payment systems as part of additional work.
In the legal field, this issue is controversial. Some lawyers say that you are returning a part of the money that the user himself spent in the online store, so there is no need to pay tax, some lawyers say that the user must pay tax on the income. This question is best clarified with your lawyer.
Online stores budget money for various advertising channels. One of the channels is called CPA and serves to pay for attracting customers. When your cashback service leads a customer and a purchase occurs, your cashback receives this booked money from the store, and you pay part of that money to the end user.
It all depends on the store. So for Aliexpress on some groups of products you can get cashback up to 90%. Booking.com has been paying $ 14 per confirmed booking for a long time and recently started paying about 4% of the booking.
All processing takes place automatically and in different ways. For some stores you can automatically become a partner, for others you can enter into a virtual offer. In any case, everything goes quickly and rarely when it requires the exchange of paper documents. We have been working in this market for a long time and within the framework of licenses we provide all the necessary consultations for the fastest possible launch of the service.
All licenses are deployed on separate servers, your own. We recommend to start using virtual servers and deploy them independently under your account on an independent hosting provider.
The cost of support depends heavily on your traffic, the servers that you need and the employees you hire. At the start, we recommend deploying the service on a virtual server, which costs about 1,500 rubles per month. If you serve clients in technical support yourself and there are payments themselves, then there will be no additional costs besides the annual domain renewal
Yes, you can refine the cashback service both with your own specialists and with ours. When finalizing with own funds, the possibility of free technical support is lost.
Base rate $40 per hour.
Cashback services, as well as all our services, are covered by an agent commission of 5%, which the agent gets for bringing a new client
Commercial offer is available by request.
