VM Affiliate
VM Affiliate provides the tools and technology required to create, manage and track an affiliate program, from scratch, with no hassle, provided that e-commerce activities are powered by VirtueMart.
Basically, installation and configuration take less than 5 minutes. At the end of this simple process, your affiliate program has been deployed. Affiliates can then already bump into your affiliate program’s offerings, sign up for it, and start advertising your products.
VM Affiliate integrates seamlessly with VirtueMart, acknowledges and uses its settings, blends within its administration as well as your website’s layout, tracks referred visits and orders, automates many tasks, and, best of all, it achieves all this without interfering in any way with VirtueMart processes or files.
It provides the administrator with a fully-fledged administration section to manage the affiliate program, and the users with an affiliate panel, where they can become affiliates, manage their accounts, have access to advertising material and personalized information.
Unlike other standard, stand-alone affiliate tracking software, VM Affiliate takes full advantage of its integration with the shopping cart, namely VirtueMart. This integration provides VM Affiliate with precious knowledge that enables it to grab the wheel and automatically operate and maintain the affiliate program, relieving you of this effort.
VM Affiliate comes in 16 languages: English, French, German, Russian, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Hungarian, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, Greek, Romanian, Persian and Malaysian.
VM Affiliate is currently compatible with Joomla! 1.5, 1.7, 2.5 and VirtueMart 1.1 & 2.0.

its simple easy to use
easy to set up *if you have the right language file, well most language files you have to make yourself*
if your looking for a simple program and you don't have to hire any programmers(cause you can code yourself) then this one will work.
you can use it on all the websites you own.

lack of support
because of all the bugs it had be better be put off as open source then a paid extension.
you can't download the component from the website after you paid and follow the download link

I really wished i could get my money back at this stage.
Hello Dear Mr./Mrs.,
First of all, which are the problems/bugs you are refering to? Please do report them in our forum in the Bug Reports section or e-mail support@globacide.com and I assure you that we will fix them.
Indeed, the launch of the VM 1.1 and Joomla! 1.5 compatible version was delayed, due to intense testing, and big number of support requests, even for few-clicks installations.
I, as the main developer of this software, officialy mention that the VM 1.1 compatible version will be released near the end of the coming week.
Also, why do you keep emphasizing that VM Affiliate is very simple? What features would you like that VMA does not support?
Since currently it supports, for example: multi-tier affiliate tracking up to 5 levels, banners, paypal payments to affiliates, payment method manager, managing affiliate links, and so on...
However, the main task of VM Affiliate is complete integration and automatisation with VirtueMart. It automatically registers clicks and sales (coming from referral links that are also automatically generated), automatically confirms/removes sales upon order status update in VirtueMart (you can set the final status of the order, stage at which the affiliate will be credited), completely integrates in VirtueMart's menu, and Joomla! framework, and so on.
So, please contact us as soon as possible by e-mailing "support@globacide.com", to solve your issues and get you satisfied of our product.
Kind regards.
