Mobstra Affliate Program Review

New products and offers that have shown a good performance in one GEO are localized for other countries.

What markets are worth testing out according to Mobstra? The audience is big in the UK, France, and Romania, in Sweden and Finland it is smaller, but also solvent. At the same time, small countries (for example, Hungary, Macedonia, Croatia, or Bosnia and Herzegovina) show a good CR thanks to the localized creatives and content, since there are still few local products for these GEOs. You can check out the examples of translated prelanders and headlines in the Ad Examples section in your personal account.

For conversion tracking, Mobstra uses a standard S2S post-back. Only leads who have made a payment are displayed in your dashboard. Thanks to high-quality offers and a simple campaign flow, affiliates do not have to wait for the approval of leads and get their payout faster.

Affiliates can also work with any popular tracking solution. The FAQ section contains detailed instructions for integration with Binom, AdsBridge, Bimob, RedTrack, and Keitaro. By the way, you will find a pre-set integration template in Keitaro.

Testimonials

We work with nutra offers. Mobstra and their offers are a new niche for us. In such cases, the attitude of the affiliate program and the manager to the newbies is extremely important. Mobstra has mastered this aspect (we have seen different cases in our time). Constant support, any information on request, assistance with set-up — we received all this immediately at the start. They didn’t abandon us, the newcomers to this vertical (as it often happens), but they really helped us figure it out. We hope to continue and strengthen our partnership with Mobstra.

Alex

I have been working with the Mobstra affiliate program for a month, my experience is fully positive! 

The managers are always in touch and very helpful. The managers advised us on offers and GEOs, and we quickly managed to reach a good ROI. 

A convenient payout system, once every two weeks with an option to request an early payout on good terms.

I hope for a long-term and strong partnership with Mobstra 😎

Today’s market has many look-alike affiliate programs for nutra/gambling/dating, but this does not apply to Mobstra and its team. New and fresh offers with an interesting flow. Horoscopes, IQ tests, dating — everything is focused at paid calls or SMS. I like that there is a large selection of landing pages for any GEO. In any affiliate program, support team makes for half of the success: Mobstra has this aspect in great shape and I thank them) I can safely recommend this program, the quality and speed of service is top-notch.

Advert Classic

I have a positive experience working with Mobstra affiliate program. I have been working with them for about a year, and I will do so, I hope) The process differs a little from other platforms, because here you get paid not for a confirmed lead, but for a call or SMS. By the way, I have managed to get into the green at the very beginning. I would like to note the excellent work of the support team (Vladimir, cheers =)), they help both at the start and in the process. If any issues arise, they are also quickly solved. At the moment, I’m still working with one vertical (esoterics), but are a lot of verticals. The choice of traffic sources is virtually unlimited, you can work with the ones you like best. Personally, I was sad when Mobstra stopped sharing TikTok agency accounts. But it was most likely caused by the multiple bans on TikTok. In general, if you are a beginner just read a couple of case studies from Mobstra, and go ahead.

Alesya

I have been working with Mobstra for about 4–5 months. I heard about this platform long ago, but somehow unusual offers did not attract me. Mobstra has its pros and cons, like any other affiliate program. This is purely my experience. I work solo, run free traffic, usually drive traffic to nutra offers targeting Russia.

Weak points:

  • Only European GEOs, mostly Eastern Europe except for France and England.
  • I’d like to see higher payout rates. But they are not too low if we are talking about “free” traffic. I think, bigger traffic volumes will bring higher ROI. I can get more with e-commerce, but it is less predictable than IVR.
  • The resulting content. I personally came across the fact that there is a limit of the duration of the call. I don’t know whether it’s a technical issue or not.
  • The payout system is not convenient, you have to wait to get the fund with no commissions. If you want it earlier — you have to pay. It’s unpleasant to lose even several euro on transactions in the current circumstances.

Advantages:

  • The very idea of this program, selling calls is easy. And most of the offers are white-hat. I have not had a single ban during my time.
  • A large selection of products that cover many verticals, and the principle of operation (calls) is the same. I find this fascinating.
  • Great support team. Modify a lander, translate a text, or request a payout at midnight — easy. For me, it’s the first affiliate network with such dedication.
  • No shaving or late approval, so affiliates don’t lose the money they have earned. No hold period and traffic validation. If there are leads — you get paid. 
  • A bonus system that looks like a percentage of the amount you have earned by the end of the month. Even with smaller volumes, the program supports affiliates financially. Which is very nice and partly compensates for the drawback with low rates.

In general, for me, Mobstra has become that safe haven where you can drive traffic with no headaches, knowing that you will drive leads and get paid on time. It’s definitely worth a try.
