Do you remember any gems/plugins out there to support an affiliate (referral, partner) like system?

e.g the 37signals affiliate program

Any help/links would be appreciated.

Is an open-source Rails e-commerce CMS that apparently supports an affiliate program out of the box. I'm considering it for an upcoming project, however I have no experience with it yet.

    Thanks! this looks promising, by the way I ended up writing my own affiliates system. – jpemberthy Oct 20 '10 at 14:11
  • Hi Juan I'm looking for a rails 3 aff. solution at this moment. Got any tips how'd you start with your affiliate system? –  Nov 08 '10 at 23:55

    @Ayrton, Hey I'm sorry for the delay, well I ended up writing the whole system by myself, it's not a big deal, I created an `Affiliation` model that acts as join table for `affiliate` and `referred` (https://gist.github.com/c3446da1918e5bb07753) and then I added some logic on the controllers, I could share with you the code, just let me know if you're still working on this! – jpemberthy Dec 01 '10 at 14:04
  • @jpemberthy I'm going to start with this very soon. I would be pleased if you could share the code –  Dec 04 '10 at 14:51
