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

Scored 9.3 / 10 by AffCue.

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.
