About viva9
viva9 was formed in 2006 with the view that Affiliate Marketing presented some fantastic opportunities in the corporate space.
A combination of three companies all focused in the online space, viva9 has, in the last three years achieved revenue growth of over 800% by offering the market performance marketing products with integrity.
Our core product is the Commission Monster affiliate network, which was started in 2003 as an Ecommerce focused commission-based affiliate network. We have since added Rewards Palace, our own consumer-focused rewards portal, and partnered to create Survey Choice, the freshest,most responsive, deep-profiled database.
Commission Monster was an immediate success, but it was in 2006, with the creation of viva9, and a new management team, that we were able to make inroads into key media agencies, and large clients, including most of the major banks.
viva9 is now a major player in the performance space in Australia. viva9 is a 100% subsidiary of the IPMG group - www.ipmg.com.au
