I will be opening the links soon, you just have to do a search on PKS once they go live and working...I think it is a no-no to add them here...

Hopefully, we can get them in the Affiliate Programs listing here too...It is a whole other way to leverage what we have here...The flip side of the affiliate marketing world...

This is something that is not for everyone, but in most cases a natural evolution as you gain more experience in the online world and well worth diving into...

Thanks for your interest, stay tuned!

Cheers!
Dave : )

I'm pretty sure it's ok to give a link if someone asks for it.

They just don't want people blasting their links everywhere.

I hope so...Another way we can leverage the power this platform provides us all....Cheers! Dave : )

Thanks, Keisha...

I will let everyone know when I have an answer/solution, as this really adds a whole new aspect to the platform and for members...We are always looking at this feature from an affiliate perspective...

But...

Selling your own product using an affiliate system, listing them here, and having the interested affiliates from here promote them could easily pay for membership costs and a lot more plus provide some good income for members too!

Cheers!
Dave : )

.... it all sounds wonderful! ... looks like you've given it considerable thought on the idea and yes, please kindly do keep us all up-to-date / posted ....

.... thanks kindly & chee-eerioo-o! ... ⭐️😊⭐️🎈

Yes, it is something that can develop over some time...Getting the foundation in place first is advisable...Like building a house...

Long term, it might be good to have your own products that you sell and pay others to market for you...

This is using the knowledge and experience gained here and turning it upside down...

I mean that you help others have the materials so they can promote what you have and only pay them when they make a sale...

Meanwhile, you also are making sales and keeping 100% of the income minus expenses (there will be expenses)...

This is affiliate marketing but leveraging the power it brings directly for your business and products/services...

Cheers!

Hi, Mate...

Good to hear from you, it has been a while...

I have the solution for creating and managing the affiliate program...This is done using a solid and recognized platform (PayKickStart)...

This question is how do we get the affiliate programs and products added to the Affiliate Programs feature within the platform here so when people are searching for what to promote they see our products...

Of course, your response does carry the question one step further...Do the offers have to be hosted on a major platform to be considered for adding within the WA feature?

I like the direction this is going, somehow I suspect we will be getting some guidance from Kyle & Carson on the parameters for getting our products in there...

Thanks!

Dave : )

Thanks! Let's see what the outcome is! I will let the community know for sure! Cheers! Dave : )

Yes, I thought so too...I did a search but found no results, so decided to ask the community in case I missed something. There were no articles or training anywhere...

This may be opening a can of worms for Kyle and Carson, but it would add a whole new dimension for the platform and how to monetize it...

I will let everyone know what the outcome is!

Cheers!
Dave : )

Great, Paul...

I have always operated under the assumption that you should always ask a question...

Give people/organizations/agencies the chance to say no...

You never know when it might be a yes, even if you have to ask it more than once in a few different ways to get there.

Cheers!
Dave : )

Great, Marion...I will be sending you a private message with info...Do not want to break any rules here...Thanks and Cheers! Dave : )

You betcha! It works well too...I can see the screen! Tx... :)

Hey Dave,

Keyboard shortcuts aren't always easy to remember, so when I find a site with too tiny a font to see, I use the View > Zoom option in my favourite browser.

On my mobile devices, I can pinch zoom in and out as necessary.

Thanks, Trish! I am going to try this as well....I do access WA on the phone too...Cheers! Dave : )

Hi, Taetske...

The glasses do help but the larger fonts are even better, less strain on the eyes...The supplement angle is something I will look into as well...Thanks!

Take care of yourself! That strain thing leads to headaches and worse...

Cheers!
Dave : )

p.s. typical me, I meant Words of course.

Thanks, Marion...

Yes, the Control + and - keys do it...Really helps this old person with lousy eyes!

Ever since I turned 63 2 days ago, I realized I just have to make adjustments...

No more jumping over tall buildings, running at the speed of light, etc. This eye thing is another one! :)

Hope you are well!

Cheers!
Dave : )

Nice one Marion!
I just tried it, woks like a charm:)

Very helpful question Fave. Thanks!

For old people like me...New that I have to do this - not sure I like it actually (having to increase the screen view)! What to do? Cheers! Dave : )

This worked!!!!!!

Thanks mate!

Cheers!
Dave : )

Before...

After...

REALLY Good! : )

Nice!, I'm glad I could help.

Hi, Alex...

Yes, I have changed the font size within the browser but for some reason, it does not affect the screens within the WA platform.

If that feature was added within the platform it would solve the issue.

Good tips on the interim solution(s), thanks!

Cheers!
Dave : )

The option to transfer cash credits is not currently showing on my account. I am not sure when it was taken away for all (because others have mentioned the option was removed...

I really need this feature to optimize our program so I am hoping that I can get some clarification from Kyle and Carson. I have raised the issue to their level and will update here and creating some updated training on the subject...

Here is a screenshot of my credit page transfer options which does not have cash credits as an option. If that is added back in as it once was, I will be a happy camper!

Cheers!
Dave : )

Hi, Keisha...Thanks...Yes, I looked at quite a few posts and tutorials even on the subject, but there have been changes since they all have been published, so although good starting points, did not answer the exact question(s) I had...

Hence this thread, and as we get updated info, I will add it here for all to use as a reference hopefully it will help some inquisitive member like me hehe...

Cheers!
Dave : )

Thanks, Diane! :)

Interesting. The option still exists in the platform. Do you know why it was stopped?

Hi - I can't find the details but will keep searching. I believe there were instances of fraud involved.

Could be...

Thanks Diane!

Thanks, Kim! : )

Hey Kim,

Not sure if I've gone monitor blind or what but I cannot find that option in my credit dashboard to make a payment to my yearly membership with those credits. Only an option to pay out to the email connected to PayPal account that I set up awhile ago now.

Help?

If you click on the 'W' icon at the top right of your screen you will be taken to a page of credits you have in your account...There are community credits and cash credits...

That is where you can transfer to other members...Apparently the cash transfer is triggered to appear only when you have some minimum on hand...

You can also buy cash credits and then apparently transfer them...That is what I am interested in, as then I can send internal money to other members...

The PayPal email address can also be changed from that page...

Hope that helps!

Cheers!
Dave : )

Hey Trish :)

Thanks to Dave's chime in. I wasn't aware of the "minimum" requirement.

I see the option in my credits area and attached an example of what it looks like. I selected you as an example. Just follow the steps Dave provides above.

Hey Dave,

What I wasn't seeing is the option to transfer my credits to pay for my membership. All else that Kim shared was an easy follow.

So, if I cannot see that option, how would your recipients be able to use what credits you forward them toward paying for their membership?

So... let me see if I understand you correctly. I have to wait until I have the total payment (or more) for my yearly membership BEFORE that option appears... is that what you are saying?

Here is what I have found so far:

Go to account settings (you can get there by clicking on your profile image and selecting account settings option), then

Scroll down to subscription settings, then you will see an option to pay for your membership with WA Cash Credits...It is in the upper right area of that section...

If you have the credits within your account, the payment will be taken from the cash credits versus from PayPal or a credit card...That is it!

I have asked a couple more questions from support/Kyle & Carson, and when I hear back I will provide more detailed information.

There is a training on some of this but things have changed since it was published...Might be time to either update that or create some more recent training that reflects conditions as they are now for this...

Cheers!
Dave : )

I see that you also do not have the option for transferring cash credits...Perhaps the intent is that we can only use cash credits that we have earned to pay for the premium membership?

In any case, I have asked for clarification and the request has been passed to Kyle and Carson for action/response. Once I have this, I will publish it here for all...

Why am I asking this question?

The internal cash credit system is a handy way to get things done for us, we can save some steps and time by using it versus transferring payment for services to the account of the person, and having them then pay for premium membership...

I can buy the credits and transfer, and done deal...A real time saver for me and for others too...I do see where it could be abused, however, and perhaps this is the reason it is not active...

Here is what I mean...

If someone were so inclined, they could get people to sign up for a trial month, pay the $19.95 for the first month for the referrals, get the premium sign-up credit, and repeat over and over again.

They could reach the 300 signups target to qualify for the Las Vegas trip at a net cost of $3285...This is calculated at $5985 ($19.95 x 300) - $2700 (commission of $1 for setting up accounts and $8 for the trial month x 300)...

This is not following with the intent of the incentive program of course...Maybe someone tried this? In our case, we are adding Wealthy Affiliate as a part of our professional development program for VAs...

We want them to learn how to build their own online business and use this platform to do it with (along with some of our training and tools that we have for them).

We are moving from providing "fish" for them (VA employment) to giving them the tools and resources they need to teach them how to "fish" (build their own online business) and get as many fish as they may want (as in income)!

Sorry such a long story, but now you know why I am asking this question!

Cheers!
Dave : )

Ooooh, there's my issue. My payout goes to my business PayPal where my membership payment comes from my personal PayPal account... which charges my credit card. Shuckers, huh.

Once you hear back from Kyle and/or Carson perhaps you could create a tutorial on that. This way you could share your tutorial with your referrals you transfer funds to... PLUS, all other members could gain information from your tutorial. Just a thought...

Thanks HEAPS for your patience with explaining this to me. Now I get it. LOL!

Thanks, Edwin...I will likely get a reading through support as well, there does seem to be some confusion...Cheers! Dave : )

Let us know what you find out. I’d be interested to know the final answer :)

Will do, Kim...I am sure this question will come up again with someone! :)
