    Yesterday, I just launched another site and received 3 clicks through eBay affiliates code (traffic sent from YSM). This morning, I checked my CJ stats, and was surprised to see a $2.09 'bonus' from eBay for that domain? Does anyone know how you get a bonus?

    Thanks!

    Nope. They pay on commission off of sales or new user sign ups.

    i also got a bonus from e bay. Sure would like to get some answers on this!!
    I wonder if it has anything to do with rev share. Maybe the difference between the next level of sales? maybe if your total sales is like..100.00 you get the extra 5% as a bonus?? Just a guess...lol




    Revenue Share Compensation

    eBay Revenue Compensation
    $0 - $99.99 50%
    $100.00 - $4,999.99 55%
    $5,000.00 - $199,999.99 60%
    $200,000.00 - $699,999.99 65%
    $700,000.00 - $2,999,999.99 70%
    $3,000,000.00 + 75%

    I received an email about performance incentive error.. and they applied the error as a bonus. I also noticed that it already went through locked then applied to my total commissions for last month. I just thought it was weird that it was applied to one of my new domains, but I'm sure they just added it 'somewhere' to apply it.

    Hello,

    There are a two main ways to get bonuses from eBay.

    Hanji was right. When you jump tiers, say 50 to 55%,
    you get the extra 5% on the first $99.99--about $5.
    Imagine jumping from 70 to 75%. What's 5% of
    $2,999,999!? :eek:

    The other is refund of the withholding. This appears
    as "bonus" in CJ I believe. Here is an explanation from
    the horse's mouth:

    In English, this means eBay holds 6.5% of your commission
    until they get paid. Sucks but makes sense.

    Hope that helps,
    Ty
