Neverblue operates on a Cost-per-Action (CPA) model. Payment is based solely on qualifying actions such as lead, download or sale. This type of marketing falls directly under Performance Marketing. Affiliates receive commissions when the lead or sale is generated from the ad they are promoting.
An Affiliate, also known as a publisher outside the Neverblue network, is any owner of online media where an advertisement can be placed and viewed by consumers. This can include website owners, newsletter publishers, search engine marketers etc. The sites and outlets that publishers and Affiliates own own is also referred to as online inventory.
An Advertiser, also known as a merchant in the industry, is a company that sells a product or service online. Affiliates promote an Advertiser's product or service by placing the advertisement on their own websites, e-mail campaigns and search listings in exchange for a commission when a conversion occurs. Those who work on behalf of an Advertiser are known as agencies.

So we accept International Affiliates?
Yes, in our continued international expansion efforts Neverblue is now accepting affiliate applications from across the globe! With regional offices located in Hong Kong and Amsterdam we are able to support our international affiliates with a high level of service.
The phone interview step is a mandatory part of our Affiliate approval process. No other means of verification will be considered. However, following approval if you prefer to communicate using IM, Email or any other means, we can generally accommodate that request. We do require that your account contains an updated phone number at all times.
Will I be approved if I don't have a website?
Yes, if you can provide an acceptable means of promoting our ads during the application process, you will be still be considered.
What are the various reasons for which Neverblue may deny an Affiliate from joining the network?
The main reasons for which we deny Affiliate applications are:
Failure to successfully contact an Affiliate during the phone interview portion of our application approval process - Affiliates who submit an inaccurate or incomplete phone number in their application will be declined. Please submit the country code, area code and full phone number in your application. Affiliates who do not answer our verification phone calls and fail to call or email back within a given time period following our initial call or email will also be denied
Inaccurate application information - We cross reference application information and if it is determined that an Affiliate has submitted an incorrect name, phone number, address, site or any false information, they will be denied
What's the fastest way to e approved?
Neverblue is committed to attracting and ensuring that only quality publishers become a part of our network. We strive to provide our Advertisers with choice Affiliates, and in return, we provide our publishers with exceptional customer service and access to the industries top performing and highest paying offers. To maintain this high standard of quality, our compliance department screens every publisher application thoroughly.
Therefore, in order for us to quickly and correctly process your application, it is critical that:
You provide only truthful, complete and accurate information that represents yourself, your Affiliate Marketing experience and your intended promotional methods.
You follow the application instructions carefully, as providing inaccurate and insufficient information will require us to delay or deny your application.

Each campaign will clearly state what promotional methods are allowed. If you have any questions about this or would like the campaign open to your promotion type, please contact your Affiliate Manager.

Neverblue's default payment method is cheque; however, Affiliates who meet certain requirements can also be paid via PayPal or wire transfer.
Do you send cheques to all countries / internationally?
Yes we send cheques to Affiliates in whichever country they are located.
How long will my cheque take to reach me?
The time between when payment is sent and when it is received by you is dependent on the postal system and hence will vary based on Affiliate location. Generally, Affiliates receive their cheques between 2 days and 2 weeks. Cheques delivered within the US and Canada will generally be received faster than those delivered to other countries.
