where, besides clickbank, can i get a place to allow me to have customers be an affiliate? I would like 1 to my site but the ones i search are just wanting me to be their affiliate. clickbank's fees are kinda high plus charge u 50 bucks to start up. i would like 1 that doesn't require you to pay if possible.

Several good starting points already appear in the thread. asked for a no‑upfront‑fee route, noted that many shopping carts include affiliate features, and offered a packaged system used with ZenCart/VirtueMart. Broadly there are two paths: join a third‑party affiliate network (outsourced recruiting/payments but with fees and rules) or run an in‑house program (more control and margin, but more setup and admin).

A short decision checklist to use when comparing options: number of products and SKUs, expected affiliate volume, platform (CMS/cart), monthly vs one‑time budget, desired commission model and cookie window, refund/chargeback handling, payout methods and thresholds, reporting needs, and whether manual approval of affiliates is required. As a rule of thumb, digital products commonly use higher commissions than physical goods; pick initial values you can change transparently.

A minimal implementation workflow that stays practical: choose platform type (cart module, CMS plugin, or standalone affiliate script), configure tracking and test with dummy clicks/orders, build an affiliate resource pack (banners, email swipes, tracking links), set automated payout cadence and a clear refund policy, then run a small pilot to validate attribution. Troubleshooting pointers: verify conversion pixels fire only on the thank‑you page, confirm cookie attribution across domains, and watch for sudden spikes or many tiny conversions (possible abuse).

Practical cautions: “free” or limited‑free offers often limit features (reporting, creatives, automated payouts) or add transaction fees—read vendor terms. Networks can speed recruiting but add overhead and rules. Start small, measure affiliate ROI closely, and scale only after tracking and payout flows are proven. This approach addresses the fee concern raised by while acknowledging the cart/plugin route advised by and the packaged solution experience shared by .

I use JROX Jam for 2 online businesses I run. The first has a Zencart the second is a Joomla site running VirtueMart. Jrox is a full featured program with very good support, and has well documented integration procedures. In spirit of non spamming - PM me and I will send you the links to both of my sites, so you can see them in action.
The reason I chose JROX initially, is that they are FREE - for the first 50 members - and you get the full program, not some watered down version...
I also like JROX because you are able to provide much more detailed materials to your affiliates - email campaigns, landing pages, viral PDF's, banners, text ads, hover ads... real time tracking, flash reports...

I am just a happy user, with a humble opinion...
