FSRevolution is written in PHP, uses a MySQL database for storage, and the Smarty template system to control the look-and-feel of the site. For security purposes, the majority of the PHP code is encrypted using ionCube technology. The template files are entirely unencoded, though, and each of your sites have an associated CSS file to control the colors, fonts, and layout for the script. These controls allow you to modify the design however you’d like while leaving the system intact.
Administration Panel Features
-
DASHBOARD
Get a quick overview of what needs to be done with quick access to do it: support tickets, order verifications and shipments, credit requests and exceptions – it’s all in one place. Flag items throughout the system to have them show up in a big red box at the top. The Dashboard is your one-stop, at-a-glance view of all the important pending stuff. When it’s all green, you’re good. -
SITE MANAGEMENT
If you’ve got 1 site or 10, you can easily manage all of them from one central location! A “site” is the front-facing part of the script and is where your users flock to sign up, log in, and start completing your affiliate campaigns for prizes. Choose from a variety of site types and add as few or as many offers and prizes to offer a unique experience for your users. A site can be based solely on referrals or users can earn points or cash themselves. You’re free to customize the requirements as you see fit and you can even set a percentage of points or cash that a user can earn from their referrals. Every site uses the same set of customizable template files, so each site’s title bar, header image, and SEO settings can be easily altered from within the admin panel. Statistics are just a click away so you can quickly see which sites are most profitable and which are failing. -
OFFER MANAGEMENT
Manage all of your affiliate campaigns (or create your own!) on one page, or work with one affiliate’s offers at a time, sorted by commission. Using the offer “grid”, you can add or remove an offer to or from every site with just a few clicks. Adding offers can be done manually using an intuitive 3-step process, or can be imported on a larger scale using Mass SQL-compatible affiliates. Offer categories are unlimited and can be used any number of ways. Keep track of which offers are performing the best at any time with one-click statistics. You can easily restrict offers to being completed just once and then hidden from the user, or allow them to be completed multiple times. Credit requests can be allowed or prevented on a per-offer basis. -
AFFILIATE MANAGEMENT
Your affiliates control your offers, but you control your affiliates here. Two instant crediting methods are supported: postback (or closed-loop reporting) or DirectTrack, with importing credits from a CSV file being a manual option. Commission statistics can be viewed with one click so you can see always how your affiliates rank. -
FRAUD DETECTION & PREVENTION
A number of measures are in place to give you the best chance of catching users before they defraud you and your affiliates. E-mail verification is provided by default, and when combined with the phone verification addon, most fraud can be defeated before the user’s account is even active. Highly visible warnings are provided throughout the admin panel when viewing users found to have matching IP addresses, passwords, or street addresses. Unique to FSR is a cross-checking system wherein you can exchange details with other networks using FSR to check that the details your user provided actually matches other sites – and that they haven’t violated any of your affiliate’s terms by completing offers more than once. -
SUPPORT TICKETS
A built-in support ticket system allows your users to quickly contact you if anything goes wrong or if they have a question. Canned responses are available to quickly handle repeat tickets. -
MULTI-COUNTRY SUPPORT
Decide exactly which countries you would like to open each of your sites to, and assign offers to their respective countries to make sure only users registered in that country see those offers. -
CREDIT EXCEPTIONS
If something goes wrong during an offer crediting (through postback or CSV) such as a bad user ID, offer ID, or invalid IP attempt, the attempt is logged and shown. Also, if the commission for an offer is higher or lower than what was expected, this is logged as a credit exception and an admin is notified. -
CONFIGURATION
Dynamically configure the name of your network, the default terms of service & privacy policy, support e-mail address and screennames, referral link variable, how long the user’s cookie should last, e-mail verification, whether or not to hide completed offers, as well as a maintenance mode for your site. -
CUSTOMIZABLE E-MAIL MESSAGES
Customize the e-mail notifications that are sent to both users and admins. -
ADMIN MANAGEMENT
Manage admins and what they can access as well as what they’re notified of by e-mail: support ticket replies, order approvals, credit requests, etc.
User Side Features
- GLOBAL REGISTRATION
Each user has a single login for all of your sites which can easily be extended to any other site in a few clicks. International registrations are also supported! - PUBLIC OFFERS PAGE
Before a users register, they may now view a list of offers without having to log in! - STATUS PAGE
All of the information you’ll need all in one place: referral status, credited offers, order status, credit requests, messages from the admin, and a scratchpad to save notes about ongoing trades. - STATUS BAR
A bar at the top of every page which lets you quickly see your status from all pages: referral status, offer credits, and any new support ticket replies or admin messages you may have. - PROFILE
Change your profile information and account preferences here which include auto-notification of: support ticket reply, admin messages, offer credit, referral signup, referral status change, account status change, and order status change. - OFFERS
Easily sort and view offers all on one page: display instant, one-day, or all credit times, partial, 1 credit or more, or all credit values (as well as point value), free, money back, or all offer costs. Also sort by offer name, credit time, cost, or date added. Or only view offers in certain categories (Casino Offers, Free Trials, etc.) - ORDER
View the status of existing orders or place one if you’ve met the requirements. If you have enough referrals for a prize with lower requirements those prizes will be displayed and you can easily switch to that prize with a single click. If one of your referral’s is placed on hold or has an offer credit removed, your order status will temporarily be set to Denied. If you obtain another referral or the user’s hold is removed, your order will automatically be re-submitted for approval. You may also place multiple orders if the site allows it. - SUPPORT
Create support tickets, credit requests and view their status all from one page. You can even close your own ticket if you find you’ve answered your own question. - CREDIT REQUESTS
If a credit request’s status is changed to “More Information Needed” the user will be able to edit the same credit request to add more information and resubmit it without having to create another credit request. - CONSTANT STATUS UPDATES
All support tickets, credit requests, and orders have status updates that occur at each stage. Find out when an admin has read your support ticket, or your credit request has been sent to the affiliate, or when your order was shipped. - REFERRAL INFORMATION
Now you can tell how many offers your referral has completed, not just if they’re green! You will also be able to see if a referral is on hold and for what reason.
