The new language options apply to MPA3’s online interface and administrative manual, and is scheduled for release in various phases. Phase one will bring Spanish, French and German versions of the software to market. Phase two will include Japanese and Norwegian software, with more languages to follow, according to company officials.
Company officials also said the decision to release multiple lingual versions of the software was prompted by MPA3’s victory at the 4th Annual XBiz Awards for Best Solution Provider. MPA3 is the only affiliate software available in multiple languages.
“We are members of a global economy. Our clients reside on all of the world’s continents and language should not be a barrier to doing business any longer,” Mansion CEO Oystein Wright said.
Mansion initially developed MPA3 and its members area management system to streamline paysite administration. The new MPA3 software, available for download at www.MPA3.com, follows Mansion’s recent 2257 information management module addition to its suite of affiliate program tools.
In addition, a search tool gives webmasters the ability to search by URL, by model and scene with a new “wizard-style” find option. Mansion also offers consultation, design, hosting and website programming.
Wright told XBiz in June that the company often also creates modules for individual clients in addition to rolling out universal upgrades to its programs.
