I’ve decided to manage my affiliate program with iDevAffiliate software and I’ll be integrating it with PayPal. The product I will be selling is an ebook, and I’d like to know how I can set up automatic delivery for it. I would prefer to keep things inhouse as much as possible and avoid paying outside services. How can I do this with iDevAffiliate and PayPal, or is there a software I can use to integrate the two?
I am not familiar with how to integrate the two, but I’m sure there are hacks to do it. iDevAffiliate should be able to help with that issue.
Personally, I wanted to do the same thing a couple years back, and I went with a company called PayLoadz.
PayLoadz will manage the whole process for you: hosting the digital product, tracking and reporting sales, integrating with PayPal, and an affiliate program.
It’s a quick and easy solution. You upload your file there, create some confirmation e-mails, and provide your PayPal account information. They handle the fulfillment and copy you on sales notifications.
While you could do this a number of ways, I think many other options will result in manual fixes and hassles.

I’m working my fatblogging thing.
Can’t keep enjoying the fried chicken and pizza if I want to show my face in Vegas.

Watch out for PayLoadz. Their support is surly and slow, and they have a habit of cancelling acounts without warning.
Try e-junkie or bytecommerce—they both have more reasonable fee structures, and are nicer to work with.

Shucks, even my Horse can add those easy numbers. I’m new to ebooks (aren”t we all?) and tried to get a tel # or some support from payloadz and…zilch. I think it is run by 2 guys in the back of their garage. MAybe it’s ime for Paypal to handle fulfillment too?

Try to check how Aaron Wall of seobook.com how he delivers its e-book. He is also into outsourcing his digital product.
