Our verdict
PaySale is a straightforward network for publishers who want the models listed at CPA, CPL and CPS alongside in-house tracking, rather than novelty. Senders with steady conversion volume get paid once and three times per month, which suits people who prefer a predictable rhythm over varied schedules.

Pros and cons
Pros
- CPA, CPL and CPS in one place, so payout types can be mixed across offers
- Tracking is in-house real-time S2S tracking, so conversions report without a third party feed
- Payouts go out once and three times per month, so cleared balances move on a regular cadence
- Operating since 2009, so the network has a long record
Cons
- The $100 threshold means a first payout needs real volume before it clears
- Models listed at CPA, CPL and CPS leave out revenue share and recurring commissions
- Payouts run once and three times per month, so a balance at the $100 floor still waits for the next window
Who it suits
- Publishers with steady volume across several verticals who can clear the $100 threshold
- Media buyers who want a plain dashboard and in-house real-time S2S tracking rather than a bespoke reporting setup
- Anyone starting out, since the network has run since 2009
Who should look elsewhere
- A8.net, if a network built on cpa alone fits your offers better
- Admitad, if you need revenue share alongside cpa, cpl and cps
- AWEmpire (LiveJasmin family, casual-dating tier), if PPL, PPLR and PPS payouts suit dating traffic
Payouts
Payouts run once and three times per month, which gives you a steady rhythm rather than a single monthly batch. The threshold is $100, so a balance needs to build before the first transfer is approved. Plan the offer mix accordingly and keep an eye on the balance as it grows.
Frequently asked questions
What commission models does PaySale pay on?+
PaySale lists CPA, CPL and CPS as its payout models. CPA suits sign-up and install offers, CPL suits lead generation campaigns, and CPS pays on a completed sale. Revenue share and recurring commissions do not appear in that list, so publishers who rely on lifetime value should read each offer's terms closely.
What is the minimum payout, and how often are payments sent?+
The threshold is $100, and payouts run once and three times per month. That floor is higher than many networks here, so a new account can wait a while for a first transfer. Steady traffic across several offers is the practical way to clear it.
How does tracking work on PaySale?+
Tracking is in-house real-time S2S tracking. Because the tracking is built in house, conversions post as they happen rather than arriving in a delayed batch from an outside feed, and your reporting stays in the network's own dashboard.
How long has PaySale been running?+
PaySale has been operating since 2009. A network of that age has had longer to build relationships with advertisers and to settle how it reports conversions, which matters if you plan to keep sending the same traffic for years.
Which kinds of offers suit these models?+
PaySale pays on CPA, CPL and CPS, so look for offers that convert on an action, a lead or a sale. The vertical mix across the programmes on this site is led by retail at 23.8% and adult dating at 31.4%, and you would need to ask the network for its live offer list.
Who does PaySale suit?+
It suits publishers with steady volume who can clear the $100 threshold and who prefer a plain set of CPA, CPL and CPS payouts. It also suits media buyers who want reporting handled through in-house real-time S2S tracking instead of stitching separate tools together.
What support do publishers get?+
Your reports sit with the network itself, since tracking is in-house real-time S2S tracking and payments run once and three times per month, so most questions about clicks and commissions go to its team. Across the programmes on this site, email is the main channel at 66.1%, with a help centre in 58.9%.
Is PaySale a good starting point for a new publisher?+
The $100 threshold is the main thing to weigh, since a small balance can sit below it for a while. On the other side, the network has run since 2009 and keeps its reporting in house, so a beginner gets a stable place to learn without assembling tools.
