Revamped WickedBucks Debuts

Wicked Pictures has unveiled its reinvigorated-from-the-top-down affiliate program, Wicked Bucks. Famous for introducing adult actress Jenna Jameson, the company patiently refashioned its affiliate program with a slew of new features and affiliate draws.

Developed by Leslie Sharp's Double Click Management, WickedBucks offers a customized gallery builder with which webmasters can create, export, and publish galleries. To attract surfers, there is niche-specific free content for use in promoting the company's varied websites. 

Along with dedicated 24/7, personalized webmaster support, Wicked Bucks' NATS-based back-end features real-time stats, allowing affiliates to query and sort their data. The affiliate interface provides sub-account and banner-code tracking, allowing affiliates to track websites and banners separately.

A cascading billing feature reduces the number of sales that are declined due to processor scrubbing, and affiliate payments are distributed bi-weekly.

With literally hundreds of nominations and AVN Award wins for Wicked Pictures' line of films since it began in March 1993, owner Steve Orenstein was eager to redevelop the Wicked Bucks affiliate program.

"We've spent 14 years solidifying for the consumers who Wicked Pictures is as a company and what to expect when purchasing one of our movies," Orenstein said. "It was time to create a Web presence that mirrored that image. The time was right for us to create valuable programs that help us form strong bonds with the Webmaster community."

According to Sharp, "We're in the process of developing a hot new version of the website tour and members section for WickedPictures.com, with a focus on a customized surfer experience. Utilizing big-name adult stars, tons of exclusive content, and excellent support, members will stay longer.

"When strategizing who the best potential clients were for my new management and consulting firm, Wicked Pictures seemed liked the best brand name to approach about revamping their online image, since they had been out of the Internet game for several years," Sharp continued. "I couldn't be more excited to be working alongside of Wicked [while they claim] their rightful position in the Internet market with both the consumers and the Webmaster community."

Wicked Bucks affiliates can earn up to $35 per sale or a 50-percent revshare for any sales to a Wicked Pictures site. Affiliates receive up to 35 percent for life on all sales to WickedLive, a webcam website, and up to 35 percent on all WickedLive VIP sales. At WickedVOD (the company's video-on-demand site), affiliates earn 25 percent for life on every sale.
