Is there such an affiliate network?

[nicuz]

I own a dating website and I would like to offer my affiliates 50% for every user they reffer and sign up for a monthly subscribtion. The affiliate will receive money every month until the user cancels his/her membership. Is there an affiliate network that can monitorize for how long a member keeps the membership and pay the affiliate acordingly? Thank you.

I know of in-house programs that do that. CJ may be able to do that, they have had at least one merchant that paid on a subscription type model. It was physical goods that shipped monthly, not personals but same kind of payment structure.

Is this what they are called? In-house programs? I've made a search in google and I did not find any of these programs. Do you know any?

"in-house" means a company developed their own program internally to the company ("in-house") as opposed to buying/using a program made by another company (dare I call it "out-house"?).

You may be able to license the system from another company or try to pay them to customize it for you.

Try searching for "subscription-based affiliate program" on Google and see if those companies have their own internal system or if they are outsourcing (out-housing?) to others.

Thanks for the tip.

Best way forward would be to try and get an existing affiliate in your sector onboard, then have him/her advise you on how to set up the program.

I have quite often found my best merchants in this way and we usually start with a small test of traffic, measure the results, adjust, repeat, etc.

Try searching for your keywords in the SEs and then contacting the websmasters to find the existing affiliates. Or some well worded stickymails to known big players through forums if you prefer.
