NATS has released the second version of its back-end affiliate program software.
The new version has a newly designed admin area, more billing options, and a long-awaited program overview page.
“The biggest change and improvement, without a doubt, is the design of the admin area,“ NATS partner Fabian Thylmann told AVNOnline.com. “Next to that, we have officially added another nine billers or gateway providers to the system. These are all changes based on feedback or requests from out clients.“

NATS 2.0’s new features include:
Admin Design – now uses its own design completely instead of being integrated into individual program design.
Configuration – new configuration options are available, including a wildcard search, disable redirect on bad code, enable error posts, gallery builder, automatic thumb system, and disable auto campaigns.
IP Tracking – now done in three ways: query string, cookie, and IP.
Dialer Support – now fully implemented.
Flat Prices – allows charging surfers any price the corresponding gateway supports without having to set up the price in NATS beforehand.
Automatic Campaigns – the program will create campaigns on the fly if the query variable autocamp=ABC is added at the end of link codes.
Unencoded Link Codes – now supported by the system.
Join Page – if the NATS code in the URL of the join pages is not the one that will be used for the sale, NATS will redirect the browser so the code is correct.
Cascade System –if a site now has multiple cascades with the same description, NATS will pick one cascade at random when displaying the join form. A weight can be set for each cascade, which affects the likeliness that it will be picked.
Members Admin – search for transaction types per-minute, and expires are now available.
Admin Reports –payment and surfer summary reports have been added to the system. In addition, a CSV output dump for the Profit & Loss and the Payment Report has been created.
The NATS Gateway – allows webmasters using a gateway with their own merchant account to use NATS without changing join forms.
Site Partners – allows assignment of a reseller to every site, along with definition of how much that reseller should receive.
New Module –the NATS Entity Module allows NATS owners to set up multiple companies that own sites in their version of NATS.
Program Overview – a special report opening in a new window without full design attached supplying all the data the program operator needs to know.
General Changes – separate cost fields for processing fees for better profit-and-loss reports have been added internally.
Billers – new to the system are 2000Charge, VXSBill, Verotel, EuroBill, NoCreditCard, GXB, Universal Processing (gateway), Symmetrex (gateway) and Plug’n Pay (gateway).
Other additions made in the final stages include more advanced account reps, single-option join forms for CCBill, total active members for reseller stats, and NATS start page settings (admins and resellers).
