Platform Update: Cooldown Periods, Code Usage Analytics & Program Management Flexibility

New year, new features! We’re kicking off 2025 with exciting updates that give publishers more control over their creator programs and give creators deeper insights into their performance. Here’s what’s new:

Creator Cooldown Periods

We’ve introduced customizable cooldown periods for publishers managing creator applications. Now, when a creator is denied or removed from a program, publishers can set a specific number of days (or indefinitely) before they can reapply. This will help maintain program quality while reducing repeat applications that don’t meet your criteria.

Creator Code Usage Analytics

While we normally focus on publisher-specific features in these updates, we wanted to highlight a new addition for creators. Creators can now track how often their code is used and how many unique purchasers have supported them in their dashboards. This gives creators clearer insights into their impact, helping them refine their engagement strategies and optimize their promotion efforts, ultimately leading to a better-performing creator program.

Increased Creator Management Flexibility

As always, one of our main goals is to make managing creators as simple as possible. With that in mind, publishers can now move a previously denied or removed creator directly to pending status, streamlining the approval process without requiring a new application. Whether a creator has improved their content or circumstances have changed, this flexibility helps publishers adapt quickly.

Coming Soon

Of course, that’s not all we’re working on. In the coming weeks, we’ll have more improvements, and we’re beginning work on a major new addition to the publisher dashboard. Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to evolve the Nexus platform in 2025! As always, we’d love your feedback, so if you have any questions or just want to learn more about Nexus, send us an email!
