1.
What is the Associates Program?
The Associates program aims to add a card
site to an existing website. It is designed
for webmasters who would like to have a greeting
card site of their own without having to write
the programs for one. It lets you interface
with the backend programs of 123Greetings
and creates an "easy to use" front end for
you. You can take the guided tour and see
how the system works.
