IP.Nexus includes a range of other features to help you get the most out of your community monetization.


Sell advertising

IP.Nexus enables you to sell advertising packages, offering ad space throughout your community. Space can be sold as self-service packages in your store, allowing customers to choose their own campaign parameters and banners, and having them run automatically. You can choose to run campaigns on a random cycle, or consecutively. You can even display your advertisements on pages external to the IPS Community Suite.

Referral tracking

Encourage word-of-mouth advertising by using the built-in referral tracking in IP.Nexus. Customers can use buttons and banners you provide to introduce new customers to your store, then pay them a percentage of the resultant sale as a commission. IP.Nexus handles it all for you!




Collect donations

Make use of your great community spirit and collect donations for good causes from within your community. Create multiple campaigns for different charities, and optionally specify a goal for each. As users donate, progress bars shown on your community homepage reflect how far is left to go to meet the goal. Donating is simple, and completed via the familiar store interface.

CPanel integration

With the built in CPanel/WHM integration, IP.Nexus allows you to sell hosting packages in your store. Configure the various package limits, and IP.Nexus handles the rest. When a purchase is made, IP.Nexus assigns a server based on the current loads and server groups you've specified. When packages expire or are renewed, IP.Nexus automatically suspends or reactivates the hosting account.



Extensibility

Extend IP.Nexus to perform custom tasks using some of the extensibility features built in. There's Billing and Support APIs to enable your own applications to generate or validate invoices, or interact with support requests. Custom scripts can be executed when packages are purchased or support requests are created. And as part of the IPS Community Suite, there's many hook points you can use to add new functionality to IP.Nexus screens.
