You’ll need to complete Trada’s Optimizer application. Once you are accepted, you’ll be able to create a marketplace login and password. Note: if you don’t hear back from Trada right away, it is because we have a backlog of qualified applicants. Trada’s marketplace is very selective, and we ask that you be patient.
It’s that easy?
Inside the marketplace, we have have a progressive access system, so you’ll need to do well on a few campaigns to show us you understand and can execute highly sophisticated, CPA-driven campaigns. We’ll help you by providing all the data you need to see where you’re doing well. When you do great work, you’ll level up and get access to more campaigns.
Is there a fee to become an Optimizer?
No, there’s no cost to become an Optimizer. We don’t ask you for a credit card, and you won’t be asked to pay for training. Working in the Trada marketplace is risk-free.
How do I earn money in Trada?
Trada has two campaign types in the marketplace. Here’s an overview of each campaign type:
PAY PER CLICK (PPC): In the PPC model, advertisers set a fixed ‘optimal’ price to pay for all clicks in the campaign (for example, $0.80). If you’re able to generate a click for less than the advertiser’s specified campaign bid price ($0.60), you are paid the difference ($0.20) for each click you generate on that keyword. It adds up! We have Optimizers who work for a living in Trada.
PAY PER ACTION (PPA): For PPA campaigns, we work with advertisers to set an optimal price for a conversion, or action (say $20). If you can generate conversions for less ad spend than the advertiser’s target conversion payout price (maybe you get a conversion for $17), then you get to keep the difference between the payout price and the cost of the conversion ($3) for every conversion you generate.
The numbers above are only examples and do not account for Trada’s marketplace fees.
What are Trada’s marketplace fees?
Trada takes 25% of your gross earnings as our fee for creating and running the Trada marketplace. Remember, when you work for Trada, you earn money risk-free and can work as little or as much as you like. You don’t have to find or manage clients. You can work wherever you want in the world.
How do I get paid?
Trada’s advertising experts receive a check in U.S. dollars once a month. We run payments the last day of every month, and Optimizers receive a check within the first week of the following month (i.e. payments for April earnings are mailed the first week in May). Currently, we send a U.S. check to where you reside. We will be offering different forms of payments in the future.
What’s the fine print?
In order to comply with labor laws, you must be 18 years to work in the marketplace. There are no exceptions.
We also require that you use your real name in the Trada marketplace. Our advertisers want to know the Optimizers working on their campaigns.
