Our verdict
JANet is a network based in Japan that pays on a single CPA model, which suits publishers aiming at that market rather than anyone shopping for revenue share or a mixed model. Payouts start at ¥1,000, and Affiliate system action tracking keeps the reporting model simple.

Pros and cons
Pros
- A single payout model, cpa, so statements stay simple to read
- 500,000 publishers listed, well clear of the 30,000 median for networks compared
- Tracking is Affiliate system action tracking, so credit follows the advertiser's own confirmation
Cons
- Support runs on help centre only, with no named account contact in the terms
- Payouts wait: Monthly close, paid on the 15th two months later
- Merchant pricing is open-ended, Initial and monthly management fees set by agreement, so what a conversion pays is agreed per advertiser
Who it suits
- Publishers whose audience and offers sit in Japan, given the base in Japan
- Anyone paid for a conversion rather than a share of sales, since cpa is the whole model
- Sites that would rather clear a modest threshold in ¥1,000 than wait on a large balance
Who should look elsewhere
- Publishers who need revenue share or per-sale payouts, which AWEmpire (LiveJasmin family, casual-dating tier) offers through PPL, PPLR and PPS
- Publishers who want several models at once, since Admitad runs cpa, cpl and cps
- Publishers after a far larger publisher base, since A8.net lists 3,726,707

Frequently asked questions
What commission model does JANet pay on?+
JANet pays on cpa and nothing else is listed, so earnings arrive as a conversion rather than a share of sales. On the merchant side, advertisers are charged Initial and monthly management fees set by agreement, which leaves pricing agreed case by case instead of set from a published rate card.
What is the minimum payout on JANet?+
The threshold is ¥1,000, so a first transfer does not need a large balance to clear. The comparison median is €43.85, and JANet ranks 11 of 105 brands on that measure, which places it toward the higher end.
When are JANet payouts sent?+
Payouts follow Monthly close, paid on the 15th two months later, so a conversion approved this month is not paid until a later cycle closes. Publishers who need income sooner will find the schedule slower than networks that pay monthly, and the threshold in ¥1,000 does not shorten that wait.
How large is the JANet network?+
500,000 publishers are listed, well above the 30,000 median for networks here. A8.net lists 3,726,707, so JANet sits in a large tier without topping the list, which is ample for a Japan-focused audience.
How does JANet track referrals?+
Tracking is Affiliate system action tracking, so a conversion is credited once the advertiser's own system registers the action. That is worth checking before you commit: a slow merchant confirmation pushes the delay into the monthly close described in Monthly close, paid on the 15th two months later.
What support do JANet publishers get?+
Support runs on help centre only, with no named account contact in the terms. Email support covers 74.4% of networks in this group, so a publisher with a question about an offer or a held payment may be reading documentation rather than reaching a person.
Does JANet pay recurring or revenue share?+
The only model listed is cpa, so recurring commission and revenue share are not part of the stated deal. Publishers whose traffic converts on later purchases, or who prefer a slice of sales value, should read the current offer terms before building a plan around either.
What do advertisers pay to join JANet?+
Advertisers pay Initial and monthly management fees set by agreement, so the merchant side is negotiated per agreement rather than drawn from a published rate card. Publishers see the effect indirectly, since what an advertiser offers for a conversion is agreed individually alongside the cpa payout.
