Does Linkshare require exclusivity from other networks other than CJ?

[MikeyL]

For an Advertiser. Does Linkshare require advertisers to be exclusive to them only? or just against CJ?

Thinking about putting same offer on Linkshare and Peformics

To my knowledge, it's not that they require exclusivity, they just prefer it. In other words, if you do not go exclusive with them, then they require a 5k or 10k pre-pay.

No, they require exclusivity (at least as of a few months ago). The only exceptions are if you're putting an offer in their LeadAdvantage network. From what I recall, Waterfront Media had to pull their offers (South Beach, Sonoma Diet) from all CPA networks a bit after they moved their offers from CJ to Linkshare, presumably due to the Linkshare exclusivity agreement.

To specifically answer your question, they will not allow a Linkshare offer to also be in Performics. Are you already in Linkshare?
