Merchants & Advertisers

Vendexo will work with merchants and advertisers to understand their e-commerce and marketing requirements. We will explain the various Internet marketing and online advertising options and services which we can offer. Together with the merchant, we can work out a strategic approach to help the merchant with their e-commerce goals and objectives.

How can you reach new customers? How can you break into new markets, countries or regions?

You create a advertising campaign, and for each ad you specify text or upload an image.

These can be used directly by your affiliates on their websites, and will direct visitors to your shop when clicked.

At computer specifying commissions

Specify how much you will pay your affiliates for their referrals.

You can specify a flat fee for clicks, visits and goals.

Key Points

  • Merchants can decide which affiliates they want to work with, and how much they should receive as commissions.
  • Payments to affiliates are performance based, so they only get paid when they deliver results for merchants. It's a Pay for Performance, or, in other words Pay for Results system, and is therefore very cost effective.
  • Merchants can decide what actions qualify for a commission, be they clicks, visits, goals or sales, and what the commission fees should be for each one.
  • Sales commission rates can be made dependent on the amount of the order.
  • Higher performing affiliates can be rewarded with higher commission rates.
  • Merchants need to keep a minimum balance in their on-line account which is created when they sign-up to the service. This amount needs to be sufficient to cover the monthly fee to Vendexo and the commission fees due to their affiliates.
  • We make one deduction from the merchant's account each month to cover the commissions and fees due.
  • Merchants have a minimum period of 21 days in which to mark a sales transaction as cancelled (void). They would do this in situations where their own customers cancelled the order shortly after making it, or if the payment from their customer failed to complete. This period can be made longer, if required, when their account is being set-up. Affiliates are not paid for cancelled orders.
  • If you don't have an on-line store already, we offer a hosted on-line shopping system which you can use as your storefront and which provides secure payment options for you and your customers. We can register a domain name for you which can point to this easy to setup store.
