C2 CPA Network is the first and largest CPA network in Brazil, and partners with 300+ affiliates who run CPA offers on their blogs and web sites. The company upgraded from another SaaS provider to CAKE for tracking because it needed deeper and more granular insight into how CPA campaigns were performing for affiliates looking to monetize their content, and advertisers looking to generate more exposure for their products. The organization also required a more accurate, reliable and scalable solution for its aggressive growth plans.
