摘要

A computer-implemented method, system, and program product are provided for ensuring payment for a successful sales lead that is provided to a product vendor. A plurality of customer leads are received from a lead provider web site, the customer leads including at least customer information and a product preference. The customer leads are stored in a plurality of records in a leads database. The plurality of lead records in the leads database is filtered to validate customer information and product availability. A lead acquisition algorithm is applied to the filtered lead records to determine a plurality of leads to acquire. A lead distribution algorithm is applied to determine at least one product vendor to send each acquired lead. A product vendor sales management database is accessed to determine the acquired leads that have resulted in product sales to customers associated with the acquired leads. The acquired leads stored in the leads database are compared with a plurality of sales records stored in a sales database to determine matched pairings of acquired leads and product sales. Payment due from the at least one product vendor is determined and billed based on the matched pairings of acquired leads and product sales.
