Also it is a bummer how bad Adam and Eve has dropped the ball when it comes to biz dev online- affiliates / white labels, etc. Low hanging fruit for all their competitors I suppose.

If you decided to though you would simply need a tour [clone] without links to the store on it for affiliates.
Many sites direct affiliates through a stripped down tour without twitter and social links etc.

A white label is simple enough, but we run into some trouble with api integration, especially when we get collisions with usernames.
You can put it on a tour if you are using nats (we're integrated) It's not a traffic leak because we can track which affiliate is sending sales. We pay you and you pay them.

While Sex Toy Distributing does not offer white label stores, by all means, W/L's may be a better choice for you depending on how hands-on you want to get in this new endeavor. We keep our focus on great products, quality service, and a vast variety. By doing so, this helps us keep our wholesale prices extremely competitive. If you'd like to sell adult novelties and set-up your own online store however and with whoever you'd like - just load it with all of our products via our XML feed...and make all the profit.

Lots of good info and food for thought so far, thank you!
I will probably initially include the PPV/PPM on my Tour in addition to the Members area, since I am still deciding about doing a limited invite-only affiliate program, and I want to see how it does on it's own.
Also, one reason for the store is for people who don't want to join the site and who only want a few select videos. Site subscribers gain access to all of my content on the DVDs, plus the rest of my library, when they join the site, so only if they want to see the videos after their subscription expires will they make video purchases. For those folks, I was hoping to get commissions on purchases of items not available on my site (toys, 3rd party video rental/sales, etc).
I can certainly see creating a separate Affiliate Tour down the road, and I like the concept of having the Affiliates be able to get credit for sales through the store (I was not trying to cut them out, but rather to create an additional revenue stream, plus to make my content more widely available through the store's portals as well).
Does anyone have thoughts on MallCom?
