You should contact CJ directly. I know that you need to have been selling for at least a year and have a minimum of $50,000 in sales per month to apply. You also need pay a fee of a couple of thousand to join and then deposit at least $3,000 with them.
no you pay cj and they pay the affiliates. best start off w/smaller networks and work your way up. I don't know why people think its soo easy to become a merchant.
