It is customizable and completely systematizes all of the processes needed to successfully run these campaigns.

 

The AccessTool® is a proprietary “content locker” that is used to monetize any type of premium digital content like videos, music, or eBooks. Content lockers, by definition, attract users with the premise of access to premium content without having to spend money.

The AccessTool® displays up to 1,000 offers and is customizable to match the design of any website.
