Hi,

Does anyone know where akashik got the scripts from to run their referral program? It looks VERY good. If akashik check this board or anybody else that knows, could you let me know?

Cheers

:D

If I am not mistaken, he had a design client that wanted it. He purchased it and then the design contract fell through. So he used it for his own referral program. Seems that it was a fairly costly script. He checks here, so he will probably respond.

Yup Greg's using GroundBreak's script. We purchased a copy some time back and have not deployed it as yet but it's a pretty good script to use, with support for multiple commission levels, recurring commissions, and "replicated" sites, among others.

Yes, it's the Ultimate Affiliate script from groundbreak.com It's pretty good - a fairly simple install, and works solidly. We had some issues getting the cron job to run right but that was more from our end.

FYI, yes to the design client too. The site never used the script, so as there was a licence lying around unused we used it on our own site instead.

The cost when we purchased it was $200. It's not cheap but probably better than anything else within $1000. The advantages are you're not paying a 3rd party a piece of the pie which means more back for the affiliate. The script itself could use some TLC to look at, but the coding appears very sound.

Updates are fairly regular as things come to light.
