Performance with bloggers (CPA)
We organize performance cooperation with bloggers on a pay-for-result model (CPA): promo codes, referral links, payment for actions/sales. Honestly and bluntly upfront: CPA reduces your risk (you pay for results) but does NOT guarantee the volume of sales — how many conversions there will be depends on the offer, product, the blogger's audience. And honestly about tracking: attribution by promo codes/links is imperfect (some conversions are lost or disputed). Not all bloggers agree to CPA. Against promo code fraud. Without promises of sales volume.
Performance with bloggers (CPA) — overview

Performance with bloggers (CPA) is cooperation with influencers on a pay-for-result model: setting up tracking (promo codes, unique referral links, UTM, affiliate dashboards), selecting bloggers ready for CPA/hybrid, agreeing the rate per action/sale, launch, attribution and fraud control, evaluation. The work: tracking, selection, terms, launch, control. Honestly about 'CPA reduces risk but is not a guarantee of volume', this is key: you pay for a result (lead/sale), which reduces the risk of a drained budget, but this is NOT a guarantee that there will be many results — the volume of conversions depends on the attractiveness of the offer, price, product and the blogger's audience. 'CPA = guaranteed sales' = a lie (the payment model is guaranteed, not the volume). Honestly about 'tracking is imperfect', this matters: attribution by promo codes/links loses some conversions (people forget the promo code, buy later/from another device, cross-device) and generates disputes about whose conversion it is; there is no perfect accounting. We honestly set up the available tracking and show its limitations. Honestly about 'not all bloggers agree to CPA': strong bloggers often work only for a fixed fee or an expensive hybrid, because CPA shifts the risk to them; the choice on pure CPA is limited. Honestly about 'against fraud': promo code fraud is possible (self-purchases, leaking the code to coupon sites); we control and stop it. Honestly about 'checking for inflation' (as everywhere). Honestly about 'ad labeling'. Honestly about transparency: CPA payouts to bloggers ≠ our commission. Honestly about the effect: it sets up performance cooperation with bloggers on CPA (tracking, selecting those ready for CPA, rates, fraud control) with ad labeling, reducing risk through pay-for-result, but does not guarantee sales volume; tracking is imperfect; not all bloggers agree to CPA; against fraud. Honestly about access: an offer/economics fit for CPA, tracking/promo codes, a landing are needed. An important boundary: this is CPA with bloggers (influencer performance); regular integrations (fixed) — 510-514; CPA networks/affiliate — adjacent; conversion tracking — 460. The base price starts from 25,000 ₽ for setup/management (CPA payouts to bloggers are separate).

FAQ
Does CPA guarantee sales?
It guarantees the payment model, not the volume, honestly: you pay for a result (lead/sale), which reduces risk, but how many conversions there will be depends on the offer, price, product and the blogger's audience. 'CPA = guaranteed sales' is a deception. We honestly reduce your risk through pay-for-result, without promises of volume.
Is promo code tracking accurate?
Imperfect, honestly: attribution by promo codes/links loses some conversions (a forgotten promo code, a purchase later/from another device) and generates disputes about whose conversion it is. There is no perfect accounting. We honestly set up the available tracking and show its limitations rather than present figures as absolute accuracy.
Will any blogger agree to CPA?
No, honestly: CPA shifts the risk to the blogger, so strong authors often work only for a fixed fee or an expensive hybrid; the choice on pure CPA is limited. Plus promo code fraud is possible (self-purchases, leaking to coupon sites) — we control and stop it. We will select those who are genuinely ready for CPA.
