Do you know of a good, off-the-shelf software to manage affiliate ads for a Web site, and also offer rewards, cashback or points to our users?

I guess this is a two part question, or even if it’s not meant to be, I will answer it that way.

As far as a good, off-the-shelf software, one that I would highly recommend is OpenAds. It’s free and it’s a great ad server for managing all of your affiliate campaigns. It’s got lots of analytics and other useful tools.

When it comes to a solution for rewards, cashback or points, a solution to consider is Mall Networks. They have a good solution that you might want to check out.

But otherwise, the rewards, cashback, and points affiliates have generally created the technology in-house.

There is nothing, to my knowledge, that you can just buy, install, and start using for this purpose.

Not knowing your business model or the stage you are in with this project, I’d say Mall Networks might be your best choice.

OpenAds is great for managing all types of ads on content websites. I've been using it for about 3 or 4 years now, since it was PhpAdsNew.

I've never thought about using it for my affiliate marketing efforts though. Most of the management, tracking, and testing for those sites is just simple programming that I do myself.
