I inquired about my pending commissions and I got this response. However I never read about this on their help section, did I mised it. Is it just me or they do this to everyone.



Please note that new publishers go through a payment approval process. Payment processing for new publishers takes a little longer than payments for publishers that have an established account with Commission Junction. The approval process for new publisher payments delays the distribution. Once the new publisher has completed three pay cycles and shows a history of good activity with no disputes from advertisers, the publishers will receive payments in a more timely manner.

Now that your status is no longer "new" you may be able to receive your locked commissions during the next payment processing to be completed on or about October 20th if we confirm that your advertiser(s) have funded their accounts to cover their commissions.

Yes, it's true. All new publishers must go through this process.

It makes you wonder why they don't mention this on the sign-up page.

It should also be in twice, for good measure.

I don't think it's too bad.. since they are a sort of matchmaker and are not paying the commissions themselves, they are not an insurance company.

Also, I'm sure it's not them that originally set out with this policy, instead it is probably some scam tactic to screw CJ that became popular that forced them to do it.

I don't know, maybe people buy a bunch of goods through a friend, pocket the commission, then have the friend return the goods or dispute the charges.

Then when CJ and the advertiser come looking to reclaim the commission you earned, they can't find you (you moved, closed your bank account or whatever, or you're a foreign student who moved back to Latin America or whatever with a pocket full of cash).

Anyway, I'm just making this up, not trying to supply you with a business plan or whatever, it just seems to me enough people have probably tried this and cost CJ and their advertisers lots of money that I don't blame CJ for having to be careful.
