Commission Junction is a very popular affiliate network. They host a wide selection of affiliate programs, and offer some of the best reporting tools available. A few things that set Commission Junction apart from other affiliate networks are:
Mentionable:

- Access to hundreds of merchant programs and millions of ads in one place.
- Consolidated monthly payments. Commission Junction will consolidate commissions you earn across all affiliate programs you participate in, and send you a check each month. Payment is available in 16 currencies.
- Tools to optimize performance. Commission Junction has developed tools that can help you improve the performance of your business.
Important Note:
Commission Junction uses different terms to describe the parties involved with affiliate marketing than those used here. They use the word "advertiser" instead of "merchant", and "publisher" instead of "affiliate," but the meanings and roles are the same.
