And who pays for it?<\/p>\n<p>This is it, guys!<\/p>\n<p>This is that point where everyone\u2019s heads start imploding, teeming with several unanswered questions.<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t worry, though.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why I\u2019m here: to clarify and demystify these complex concepts in the following paragraphs, deconstructing every piece of this overwhelming puzzle.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"whats-an-action-in-affiliate-marketing\"><\/span>What\u2019s an Action in Affiliate Marketing?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In the Cost per Acquisition (CPA) online advertising price model, an action means the user has to perform a specific task such as a sale or a click.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not enough for the user to view an advertisement or to click it, as it occurs with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/cpc-vs-cpm\">CPM and CPC<\/a>, correspondingly.<\/p>\n<p>The user needs to acquire, to have an intention, to be interested.<\/p>\n<p>This is how you make money with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/cpa-offers\/\">CPA offers<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/academy.mobidea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cpa.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5018\" src=\"https:\/\/academy.mobidea.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/cpa-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"cpa image\" width=\"700\" height=\"467\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Is it more difficult to attract users and galvanize them so they get something?<\/p>\n<p>Well, the answer is yes!<\/p>\n<p>Even so, in the end, isn\u2019t that what every company wants?<\/p>\n<p>To sale, to increase the client database, to boost those super sweet revenues?<\/p>\n<p>The only difference between CPA and other pricing models such as CPM or CPC?<\/p>\n<p>The means to achieve the ultimate goal &#8211; the conversion.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"kinds-of-actions\"><\/span>Kinds of Actions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It really depends!<\/p>\n<p>By the way, this last sentence is like a mantra in marketing.<\/p>\n<p>The most common types of actions are definitely subscriptions:<\/p>\n<p>The user pays an amount to get a product or a service during a specific period of time.<\/p>\n<p>For those actions, the advertiser &#8211; the owner of the offer &#8211; pays an average amount of revenue per user.<\/p>\n<p>This means that the CPA can be the same for a user who remains associated to the subscription service for three weeks or for one who only stays for one quick week.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s an estimation and an average number, since we can never guess each user\u2019s actual behavior.<\/p>\n<p>However, an action doesn\u2019t only refer to a cost.<\/p>\n<p>CPL &#8211; Cost Per Lead &#8211; is a similar pricing.<\/p>\n<p>Ever been able to check those viral <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/sweepstakes-offers\">sweepstakes offers<\/a> in the form of a contest where the user only needs to fill some data to fire a pixel, and a conversion?<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s referred to as a lead: a user who is a potential client.<\/p>\n<p>Now you\u2019re asking: how can an advertiser make money by paying per lead, and receive no payment whatsoever from the user?<\/p>\n<p>Awesome question!<\/p>\n<p>Now, this is where the beautiful essence of marketing becomes real.<\/p>\n<p>CPL offers are a way for the advertisers to build a database of interested users and to later sell them paid products.<\/p>\n<p>Remember\u2026 at the end, this is the goal of each company.<\/p>\n<p>But do advertisers manage to turn all the leads into real clients?<\/p>\n<p>Hell no!<\/p>\n<p>Since the user only needs to insert some data, the conversion rate is really high, when compared with the normal subscription services.<\/p>\n<p>However, the payouts are low, because only a small sample of users can be monetized.<\/p>\n<p>Want to learn about another pretty common action?<\/p>\n<p>A sale!<\/p>\n<p>This is when the user actually acquires a product or a service at one go, and not as a recurrent payment.<\/p>\n<p>This is known as CPS &#8211; Cost per Sale.<\/p>\n<p>This means the users pay for the product or service they acquire, so the payout the advertiser will assign is higher, but the conversion rate is lower, since the user needs to clearly spend money, usually via credit card.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, a subscription, a lead or a sale, can all be considered as actions.<\/p><div class=\"mobid-in-content-15-p_2-2\" style=\"margin-top: 26px;margin-bottom: 26px;\" id=\"mobid-3575678674\"><div class=\"mobid-adlabel\">Advertisement<\/div><a data-no-instant=\"1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/recommends\/semrush-v1\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" class=\"a2t-link\" target=\"_blank\" aria-label=\"backlinks\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/PD-970x250-Discover-backlinks-faster-than-ever-1.png\" alt=\"\"  srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/PD-970x250-Discover-backlinks-faster-than-ever-1.png 970w, https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/PD-970x250-Discover-backlinks-faster-than-ever-1-250x52.png 250w, https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/PD-970x250-Discover-backlinks-faster-than-ever-1-700x144.png 700w, https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/PD-970x250-Discover-backlinks-faster-than-ever-1-768x158.png 768w, https:\/\/www.mobidea.com\/academy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/PD-970x250-Discover-backlinks-faster-than-ever-1-120x25.png 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 970px) 100vw, 970px\" class=\"no-lazyload\" width=\"970\" height=\"200\"  style=\"display: inline-block;\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p>Sometimes you may get confused in the game, since ACTIONS are quite the broad term used for every occasion.<\/p>\n<p>Even so, when we refer to CPA offers in mobile content, the idea of subscription comes to mind!<\/p>\n<p>Comfortable with these terms and concepts?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s now look at the players in the puzzle.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"cpa-game-%e2%80%93-the-players\"><\/span>CPA Game &#8211;

the ones with a higher probability to convert.<\/p>\n<p>Now let\u2019s go back to the user\u2019s journey.<\/p>\n<p>They\u2019ve viewed the advertisement and it looked appealing.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, they reacted by clicking and being redirected to an offer.<\/p>\n<p>This offer was implemented and designed by the advertiser.<\/p>\n<p>It kind of blends with the ad and &#8211; most of the times &#8211; with the website\u2019s layout.<\/p>\n<p>Did the advertiser work directly with the publisher so that this alignment could be possible?<\/p>\n<p>No! It was in this window of opportunity that the affiliate had a chance to shine.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, in that specific moment, the affiliate showed the offer they thought best suited the potential user\u2019s wishes.<\/p>\n<p>This means the user entered the offer, saw the content and decided to acquire the product through their mobile phone.<\/p>\n<p>They didn\u2019t need to make a bank transfer afterwards or to call a specific number to confirm the purchase.<\/p>\n<p>By accepting it on the offer page, the carrier was able to charge the user directly and get them to pay.<\/p>\n<p>The user was pleased with the product and the price they paid, and lived happily ever after &#8211; or until the next action.<\/p>\n<p>The CPA mobile ecosystem is impressive\u2026 and at the end, who paid for the product?<\/p>\n<p>The user.<\/p>\n<p>To whom? To the carrier.<\/p>\n<p>And what about the other players?<\/p>\n<p>What happens in this world is that the carrier distributes the price the user pays by giving a commission to the advertiser, who pays a commission to the affiliate network, who then pays a commission to the publisher.<\/p>\n<p>Get it?<\/p>\n<p>The story I\u2019ve so brilliantly told you is a very short story of a user\u2019s action.<\/p>\n<p>Now you can try to imagine these players increasing in number.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m referring to those awfully big agencies or networks, which actually provide complementary services and get part of the commission.<\/p>\n<p>The product needs to be really good so the user pays more for it.<\/p>\n<p>And how can we optimize this route?<\/p>\n<p>How can each player be responsible for adding value to the chain?<\/p>\n<p>How can we only have happy clients?<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s pretend we\u2019re playing the part of each player and trying to understand what\u2019s more important for them.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"user\"><\/span>User<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>If I\u2019m a user, I\u2019m the one that actually brings money to the table.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m the most important piece of this ecosystem since I\u2019ll be tempted to buy the best type of products\/services &#8211;
