If you run a tip-top merchant program, you’re probably using AvantLink’s reports to keep tabs on performance. But did you know that you can set up subscriptions to your reports? We have an article and video explaining how to use the reporting tool and set up subscriptions to reports you frequently need quick access to.

Affiliates

When you’re looking for new merchant programs, or trying to find an awesome product on sale from a program you already belong to, you’ll find them in the Merchant Datafeed on AvantLink. In fact, we have a nifty report, called the Merchant Datafeed Quality Report, which gives you insight into each program’s data feed, and the pros and cons, including a data quality rating. Read our article on the Merchant Datafeed Quality Report and check it out from your affiliate dashboard.
