What is NATS?

NATS is made by Too Much Media, a US software company founded in 2003. It is software, not an affiliate network: each paysite or program installs its own copy, sets its own commissions and pays its affiliates itself. NATS does not pay anyone and has no shared offer catalog.

For affiliates this means you sign up with every NATS program separately and get a separate login for each one. The upside is that the admin areas look almost the same everywhere. Once you know one NATS panel, you can find the tours, linking codes, hosted galleries and stats in any other.

Inside NATS a program usually offers RevShare, PPS or both, often with a webmaster referral bonus. The minimum payout, payment methods and schedule are set by each program, not by NATS.
