iDevAffiliate ® Full Review

1. The Admin Center

The admin center of the iDevAffiliate software is the place where you manage your affiliate program. This is where you setup the program and tweak all the settings, set commissions, manage payments, follow statistics etc.

Let’s go through the admin panel in details, as you as a merchant will spend most of your time here.

The admin panel layout is separated into three main areas: header area, sidebar menu and main display area, which by default shows the affiliate dashboard, which sums up all the important stats such as commissions, website visitors, latest affiliates, etc.

In the header area, we can find the following options:

• System settings menu: this is where you tweak general settings, localization, email settings, PayPal payments settings, mailing list integration, etc. There is also an option here, which allows you to import existing affiliate accounts.

• Cart integration menu: here you can find options for integrating referral options and tracking into shopping cart on your website as well as manage integration profiles.

• General settings menu: settings found in this menu include customer tracking, affiliate links settings, advanced tracking options, fraud control, performance rewards, offline marketing, affiliate co-branding and affiliate library.

• Commission settings menu: this is where you setup and manage everything related to commissions and the settings include payout levels, tier payout levels, override commissions, coupon code commissions, per-product commissioning, promotional bonuses, recurring commissions and delayed commissions.

• Templates menu: this is where you setup visual parameters and templates used.

Besides the above settings, which can get a bit technical, the header tab also offers access to internal messages system and options for admin accounts management.

The sidebar menu offers following functionality:

• Reports: these are various statistics related to the performance of your affiliates and include daily reports, trends and stats such as top affiliates, top referring URLs, T&C reports, commissions and marketing statistics.

• Affiliates: here you can manage everything related to the affiliates selling your product. You can view and manage approved accounts, pending accounts as well as declined accounts. There are also options to manage tiers, send messages to your affiliates, email affiliates, manage user access, affiliate logos in case of co-branding deals and testimonials provided by your affiliates.

• Commissions: this is the area where you can view and manage everything related to commissions earned by your affiliates. The options include details on commissions, which are pending approval, currently approved, delayed or declined. You can also find recurring commissions here and create a commission manually (in example giving a bonus to a hard working referral).

• Traffic Log: here you can view details about each visitor, which was sent by affiliates to your website.

• Marketing groups: this section of the admin panel allows you to organize marketing materials and generate traffic to different pages or websites.

• Marketing materials: here you can provide your affiliates with banners, page peels, lightboxes, text ads, text links, html templates, email templates, PDF documents and QR codes, which they can use in their marketing efforts.

• Training materials: this is the place where you provide your affiliates with different training materials such as PDF documents or videos.

2. The Affiliate Control Panel:

The affiliate control panel is the public view of your affiliate program. This is where affiliates sign up for your program and get all the information on available opportunities. Affiliates can get marketing materials, links, banners, as well as view important transactions and earnings stats using the control panel.

The initial page of the affiliate control panel features a sign-up & login form as well as information about the affiliate program, commissions available and other details.

After the sign-up process, each affiliate will have unique user ID and password. Once the affiliate is logged in, the affiliate control panel looks like this:

On the top, the affiliate can see the most important information, which is of course his earnings and successful transactions. There is also a main referral link available which is used by the referral when marketing the product and which allows all sales to be tracked accordingly.

All affiliates will have access to all the training materials such as videos, PDF documents and other manuals using the left sidebar menu. There are also all important marketing materials available such as:

• Banners
• QR codes
• Page Peels
• Light Boxes
• Text Ads
• HTML Ads
• Text Links
• Email Links
• Templates

And more other resources which the affiliate can use to put up ads on his website or share deals with his followers via social media. The more high quality marketing materials you provide your affiliate with, the greater the chances are for their success.

Main area of the affiliate control panel is occupied with various stats on traffic, earnings, payments history, traffic driven to the site, etc.

My Account menu is where the affiliate enters his personal and billing information and other details.
