CPA stands for Cost / or Commissions per Action and is essentially an umbrella type for a number of other models such as CPI and CPS. This is the most popular model among publishers because it offers a win-win relationship for advertisers and publishers.
The former find this model the most attractive one because, with a catastrophic level of fraud that devastates CPC and CPM models, CPA provides a safer ground to work with. The latter have less headache as well, knowing that they can safely deliver something advertisers want.
