AvantLink, an affiliate network, has announced the launch of AvantLink.ca, the Canadian version of its network consisting of affiliate marketing programs specifically for the Canadian market. With the Canandian online retail marketing growing swiftly, AvantLink is capitalizing on a unique opportunity.

As we noticed at this year’s eTail Canada conference, retailers in the country are still quite behind in their digital strategies, but show a hunger for advancement and growth, and a need for partners serving their market.

AvantLink.ca will work in conjunction with AffiliateTraction Canada, a Canadian outsource program management company, on bringing in and managing many of the affiliate programs available at launch.

AvantLink.ca will retain all of the dynamic tools for affiliates found on the AvantLink.com network and place the same emphasis on working with high-quality affiliates and merchant programs. AvantLink.ca will be launched with a number of popular affiliate programs including:

– Under Armour Canada
– North by Northwest
– Skull Candy Canada

All existing publishers on the AvantLink.com network will be automatically added to Canadian network, while any new publishers wishing to participate can apply to the network. All publisher and merchant applications to AvantLink.ca will follow the strict quality control and verification guidelines in place and used by AvantLink.com.

Publisher payments will support Canadian, US, British, and Australian currencies and will be payable by EFT/direct deposit or checks (CAD only).
