what platforms do you use on your token?

Assuming you're asking what blockchain we use for our token? If that's the case, our token is ERC20-based (Ethereum).

Yes, both the token (ERC-20) and the platform are on Ethereum. This makes sense for us because ICOs are natural customers for us, and most ICOs are issuing ERC-20 tokens.

Hi, guys, tell me where are you incorporated?

Hi wickedabc,

We are a company operating out of Chicago in the United States. Foreground is incorporated in the state of Delaware for legal reasons (as most United States tech startups are).

Very specifically, our office is here:

https://www.google.com/maps/place/11+E+Illinois+St,+Chicago,+IL+60611/@41.8906454,-87.6362069,15z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x880e2cade0c3760f:0x5487f3105e140498!8m2!3d41.890722!4d-87.627451

We love visitors, so if anyone is in the Chicago area and wants to drop by the office, please PM me.

Like I stated in your bounty, I am liking the sound of this platform.

When do you anticipate the beta to be released so we can interact with it?

Thanks for the follow-up @ Cryptosaint$. We will be launching the product by having our ICO be the first ever affiliate campaign on our own platform to show future users and customers that we are confident in our solution and to get a feel for the implementation. That way, we can immediately work on improvements.

With that said, we are on schedule to release the platform and have affiliates sign up starting on November 28th (the start date of our ICO).

What type of analytics are available to track the affiliate's link turnover success?

Crypt0e, Foreground plugs directly into the smart contracts that facilitate the advertiser's transactions. This allows us to log every transaction that occurs and provide affiliate's with a 100% accurate record of their conversions (this works beautifully for ICOs). This is dramatically different than the status quo, where the affiliate network usually has little-to-no integration with payment services the advertiser is using.

There are a lot of things we can do from an analytics standpoint. The Beta will provide more basic functionalities. As our userbase grows, we'll leverage the feedback from our community to build more elaborate and needed tools as requested to improve Foreground consistently as we move forward.

okay not too bad to look at the project on this thread of course in this case I still need to see more about how it would be great to use it in the future. Make just some other examples

Our initial customers are anyone who sells goods (ICO tokens, crypto exchanges, hardware wallet retailers, etc...) for cryptocurrency. We allow these sellers to integrate our product directly into the smart contracts that receive their payments, providing them with an instant affiliate program. There are already 3 billion dollars worth of crypto transactions occurring (even excluding exchange transactions), and these sellers/merchants don't even have access to the most basic affiliate tools.

Our product is also broadly applicable to the general affiliate industry ($7 billion market). We can reduce costs in this space by establishing an efficient market for affiliate services using the blockchain as a common protocol that connects advertisers and publishers.

what is the requirement to become your affiliate?

All you need to do to become an affiliate is to go to the Foreground DApp and generate a referral link for the advertiser that you want to promote. The Foreground DApp should be launched in the coming weeks, so we're already starting to build a list of affiliates who want to earn Ether by promoting ICOs and crypto merchants. If you sign up for our newsletter we will let you know when the DApp is live and you can start earning Ether as a publisher/affiliate.

That about sums it up

. @feizy, once our app is live we'll have supporting documentations available and will also be able to assist you with your signup via slack or email.

Will the payment, via the affiliate programs, settle at the end of the day or is payment realized instantly? How do I establish credibility? Also, how do you 'find' advertisers or publishers that are the correct fit? Thanks again for the previous quick response.

Also - in case you missed it on the previous page, here's a link to a Huff Post article talking a bit more about the product and some of your questions specifically:

1. The settlement period can contractually be set by the advertiser. It can be instantaneous or delayed (like it normally is in traditional affiliate marketing) depending on the campaign specifics the advertiser selects.
2 & 3. In a nutshell, your payment or conversion data build your profile and reputation within the Foreground ecosystem. Thus, advertisers and publishers will be able to analyze one another using various data points and metadata to find their best fit.
