Delivery AND affiliates?

I use E-Junkie for my products, because it's cheap and handles delivery.

But it doesn't handle affiliate payments. Instead, every month, I'm supposed to download a CSV file of who I need to pay and how much, then pump it through PayPal's system.

What I'd really like to do is have a system that pays the affiliates for me. Clickbank does that... but they don't do product delivery.

Paydotcom doesn't do either one.

So here's my wishlist:

1. Centralised system where I keep all my products
2. Takes the payment from the customer
3. Delivers the money to me immediately
4. Delivers any commission to the affiliate immediately
5. Throws the customer onto an AWeber list
6. Delivers the product to the customer

Anyone know something that does all this?

    Are you talking about physical products or digital?

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

    Digital at the moment; I'd like to go physical in a few months, but right now it's all digital stuff.

        My big issue with RAP is that it's self-hosted. I'm looking for an external service, so if things get screwed up I get to yell at someone instead of having to fix it myself.

          Ah...that's what I was going to recommend as well, or DLGuard, but you'd have the same issue.

    That's a tricky wish when you're searching for solutions that you're not hosting. They don't pay instantly for security purposes (charge backs, refunds), they add some delay. The newer changes with Paypal might change some of the systems.

    Otherwise, Plimus fits what you've described.

    Martin Avis (above) already gave you the right answer.

    RAP not only fulfills your entire wishlist, but there is also a Kunaki Add On that has been certified for use with Rapid Action Profits to handle delivery of your physical products once you are ready to take that step.

    Oh, and believe me...
    the ability to yell at someone else when there's a screw-up, is of no real help. At the end of the day, it will still be on you to resolve any customer issues - so taking time out to yell at someone else just adds to your workload

    Besides, once you've set it up... those screw ups will most likely be with your hosting provider (so you still have someone to yell at). Self-hosted is something of a mis-nomer, unless you are running your own web server out of your basement.

    From memory I seen a post where paydotcom was moving toward a new instant payment split with pay pal, I am not sure how far away that is, you may be able to send a email to inquiries ?

    Like Sid said, RAP will do everything you need. In over two years of use , and constant growth of the script itself. almost all problems end up being minor hosting glitches.

    Once it's set up and tested, it runs pretty flawlessly.

    Plus you get awesome support from Sid and an excellent users forum for help.

    At least something to look at.

    Thanks,

    John
