Hi, i have a few questions My Ebay account, was suspended last year due to the ebay tos, and i have been using my gfs ebay account since. Would i be able to sign up to the ebay affiliate program under her account (under her name, addy etc) but have it linked to my own CJ account? (under my name, addy etc) so that the commisions goto my cj balance. I know i can make a new account, but i have friends that currently have been gettin suspended regularly due to the crap they are selling and they are saying it is EXTREMELY hard to make new accounts now with the "new ebay" and "paypal" linking them together. I just dont want anything happening to the good account i am using now (to sell everyday legit items) by making a new seller account under my name with fresh feedback. I also dont want to raise suspicious activity by using two ebay accounts at the same time and i really need her account since its easier for me to sell since the "trust" is there with the good feedback rating. So if i join the ebay affiliate program and fill out MY information but use her account user name, would it be a problem? i could try, but i rather ask you guys first =)
Do you need an ebay account to become an affiliate then? I don't remember ever having to tell CJ my ebay username?
That's correct, they don't. You are "selling" other peoples stuff. Now just don't go and get your cj account banned.
you don't need to have an ebay account in order to be an affiliate. just apply to be an affiliate straight through cj. you normally get automatically accepted.
