Affiliate Summit West 2010
We're back from Affiliate Summit West 2010 and already
missing all of the great people we met at the show. Each of
our partners in the booth had great displays and made the
mega-booth the place to be in the exhibit hall.
The 14 LinkTrust partners that joined us on the grass were:
Converting Offers,
CPA Flash,
Digital Target Marketing,
Elite Profits,
GetAds,
Healthy Payout,
National Web Leads,
OfferAlliance,
OfferWeb,
RateSpecial,
Restoration Media,
RevStars Media,
Simply Ink,
XY7.
With a Hole-in-One contest for a radio-controlled car, we
had publishers, advertisers, affiliates and networks
stopping by the LinkTrust booth to take a shot.
As the biggest booth in the exhibit hall, our partners
really were the center of activity. With so many different
networks and companies in one spot, it wasn’t unusual to see
people come to the booth to talk with a certain company and
end up meeting several of the other LinkTrust partners in
the booth.
After two days of non-stop traffic in the booth and hundreds
of new leads, we can’t wait for Affiliate Summit East.

photo albums.
Training Webinar
The release of more than 50 new features, upgrades and
enhancements last week means there is a lot to learn about
LinkTrust, even for expert users. We had a training webinar
for Feb. 3 at 11 a.m. (MST) to bring you up to speed on the
new features.
"In this webinar we'll make sure the partners leave knowing
how to use the new features to increase productivity," said
Gavin Grow, LinkTrust vice president of education.
"Affiliate fraud signup means LinkTrust partners can quit
wasting time wading through pools of fake affiliate signups
and find affiliates ready to contribute."
LeadsCon 2010
Yes, LinkTrust does leads too. LinkTrust’s Bret Grow and
Jeremy Coon will be manning the booth in Las Vegas at
LeadsCon 2010. Didn’t make a Hole-in-One at Affiliate Summit
West 2010? Try your luck in Las Vegas and win a
radio-controlled car! You can find them in Booth #502.
Payoneer Integration
LinkTrust and Payoneer Inc. are teaming up to provide
LinkTrust partners with an easy, cheap and safe way to make
commission payments to publishers. Payoneer has been serving
networks and publishers for more than four years, building
the best product offering and committing to excellence in
customer support. Payoneer’s client list includes some of
the leading networks. Soon their global payment portal will
be available to all LinkTrust partners.
After LinkTrust has integrated with Payoneer, publishers
will have the option to select a co-branded prepaid debit
MasterCard© alongside checks, ACH (direct deposit), PayPal
or bank wire. We anticipate our integration with Payoneer
will be completed by the end of February 2010.
For LinkTrust partners, using Payoneer means:
Cost-savings: Reduce payment processing costs
Fraud management: Enhanced visibility to payees
Rapid deployment: fully-hosted turn-key solution
Loyalty: Private-label card, branded cardholder website and
emails reinforce top-of-mind awareness
Localized solution: Multi-currency solutions with
multi-lingual cardholder support
Efficiency: Eliminate administrative hassles of cutting
checks, sending wires, tracking payments, re-issuing lost
checks, etc
For publishers, the card offering means
Fully functioning debit MasterCard: Immediate liquidity;
accepted at all MC points of sale, ATMs and online
Speed and efficiency: Increase working capital, shipped once
– instantly reloadable; no FX fees when funds used to buy
more traffic in dollars; can be cross loaded from other
affiliate networks
Safe: Funds are MC secured against unauthorized
transactions; accounts are FDIC insured
Low cost: Lower costs relative to other cash-out options
We’ll keep you up to date as the Payoneer integration
progresses.
