Last time I checked, there were about 140 valid CPA networks out there (and counting…). So I’m thinking… how in the world are you supposed to know which one to sign up with AND should you just join ALL of them?
Well this post should help give you some guidance in choosing only the best CPA networks and forgetting about the other 100 or so others out there.
By using sites like Offervault.com you can type in a search term for the niche you want to promote and find all of the CPA networks and offers that go along with them. This is by far the simplest way to find CPA programs that can work within your niche of choice.
But you still won’t know which CPA networks are the best.
Here is what to look for in the best CPA networks:
- Find a CPA network that people are already talking about. The more active a network is the more likely they are to stay in business
- Look for a network that offers weekly payments. Sometimes you have to earn a certain amount to qualify for this.
- Only use programs that have a LOT of offers. If there are less than 100 offers on a network it is not worth it. You want the flexibility of having hundreds of other offers to promote in case the one you are currently promoting dries up.
- Make sure they offer top of the line tracking. Your CPA campaign will live or die based on tracking. Some networks are a little more tracker-friendly than others so make sure that are at least tracking 202 compatible.
- Stay away from networks that have automatic enrollment. These networks let everyone in and that is bad for the overall network. It’s a good thing if you have to go through an interview process or at least answer a phone call before a network will let you in. This keeps fraud to a minimum and let’s the best publishers shine.
- Work with CPA networks that offer the highest payout percentage. You can use offervault to try to figure out who pays the most commission on every action. Keep in mind that just because they pay a high percentage does not mean they are the best CPA network to use. This is just one of the many factors to look at.
- Make sure they are transparent in how well the offers are performing. The good CPA networks will allow you to see the conversion rate for an offer as well as the EPC (earnings per 100 clicks). This will tell you how others are doing with an offer on average across the entire CPA network.
Here are the top 5 CPA networks right now:
What is my personal favorite?
Sure, I could join all 140 of the networks out there and drive myself up a wall trying to keep track of everything, but I prefer to keep things simple. After a lot of research and using the 7 tips and guidelines above for choosing a good program, I decided to go with Peerfly. Those other 4 networks are good too, but I like how Peerfly was built from the ground up and offers a personal touch I did not see with the others. When I joined I just had to instant message one of the people at Peerfly and confirm what I wanted to do to generate income with their services, and by the next day I was able to start promoting offers.
Sign up with Peerfly Here!
Why I chose this network:
- Peerfly is an established network that is getting a lot of buzz, so they have already built themselves a solid reputation.
- They offer weekly payments, so you don’t have to wait 2 months to get your money.
- At the time of this writing they have over 1,000 offers to choose from.
- They are tracking 202 compatible.
- They offer very generous payouts. The highest I saw was $131. Crazy!
- They tell you the conversion rate and EPC of every single offer.
You should be able to find a category for your website because they have a broad spectrum of categories, ranging from finance and legal issues to bizz ops and ring tones.
And they have a great referral program too, which gives you 5% for a lifetime for anyone who you get to sign up.

Can you tell all 140 of the networks out there? I could not find them by myself.
Well that number keeps changing as more networks are shut down and more crop up. Just do a search over at offervault.com and you can see a majority of the CPA networks. Although there are more than 140 out there (much more), I would only trust the ones you see in offervault as they try to vet the networks as much as possible.
