MontRED takes pride in creating innovative tools for affiliates. One such interesting tool is the RSS feed for coupons. The best part is that it comes pre-coded with the affiliate-id and coupon-code.

Our coupon datafeed uses RSS version 1.0. Here is what it looks like:

As you can see above, the affiliate code (affid=999) and the coupon code (cc= GNEF3712) are included in the URL.

Here is the link to our coupon feed: http://www.montred.com/affiliates/tools/feeds/rss.php?affid=999. In this link, you simply have to replace ‘999’ with your affiliate-id.

So what’s the big deal about this feed? First, with this RSS feed, you get the up-to-date coupon info. No stale info, no expired coupons.

Second, compared to a small number of merchants/networks who provide RSS coupon feeds, MontRED’s RSS feed is pre-coded with the tracking-id (your affiliate-id).

Check out how MyDataFeedScripts made a smart use of our coupon feed. They built a customizable Coupon Ticker that pulls our RSS datafeed and displays MontRED coupons in a slideshow form. See the live tickers here, here, and here.

So go ahead and add this link to your favorite RSS reader (MyYahoo, GoogleReader, firefox etc). But don’t forget to replace ‘999′ in the link with your own affiliate-id.
