Since announcing the acquisition of EmoProfits last week, we have been busy getting things updated for you. Here is a rundown as to what's happened so far:

Copyrights and TOS Updated
We have updated all copyrights and TOS to reflect new ownership. We encourage all affilaites to review our TOS from time to time.

Affiliate Payouts
We have started making payments to affiliates to catch up on all amounts owed. We have paid off most Paxum amounts outstanding and have issued cheques for most affilaites that prefer that payment method. Please note, due to banking regulations, we are not able to pay any payment processor companies such as Dean Arrow and Associates or MTACC Inc. If you have one of these companies as your payment address, please update your account asap. Similarly, we are not able to payout ePassporte payments, so please ensure that your account payout method is correct. Also note, we have adjusted the payout fees and minimal amounts for various payout options to reflect the fees we get charged, please ensure that you login to your EmoProfits account to check the new structure. We will continue monitoring changes and making payments until all outstanding amounts are fully paid.

NATS Changes and Upgrades
We are waiting in the queue to get our NATS upgraded to version 4.1. This upgrade offers a substantial change in the affiliate are interface, which we think is a change for the better. This upgrade also addresses a number of issues in the back-end to fix problems with items such as changing account details when the current email address is no longer valid. We except this upgrade to be completed early this week.

Billing Updates
We are making a number of changes to our billers in order to improve choices available to surfers, which will mean more signups and more sales for affiliates. We have already added phone billing and euro debit options, we are working on further geo-targeted options to offer local payment methods. Of course, we pay on all billing options, so this will make you more money!

Affiliate Programs: NATS and CCBill Direct
We found that there was only 6 active affiliates under the CCBill Direct affiliate program, so in order to reduce monthly fees and overhead costs involved with running two separatae programs, we have decided to shut the CCBill Direct affiliate program. We are sending an email to all CCBill Direct affiliates to confirm this, and we request that anyone signed up under that program join our main nats program at http://nats4.emoprofits.com and update all their links before June 30th, 2011. After June 30th, the special join pages that go directly to ccbill will be removed and redirected to our NATS join pages. Please note, the only way to take advantage of the new payment methode mentioned above is to use NATS links.

Affiliate Tools
We are working on adding a host of new tools for affiliates to use, including banners, galleries, RSS feeds, hosted blogs, tube videos, tube feeds and more. Please take the time to drop in to the affiliate area http://nats4.emoprofits.com to get the latest tools as we add them. If you have any special requests or needs, please contact us and we will see what we can do.
