Help me understand How CJ Lists Commissions

    I am new to CJ and have only made one sale, so far. However, I have a fair amount of clicks.

    Do most advertisers post a commission in real time, or do many of them pay once a month -- or only on a certain day each month.

    I can find no answer to this question on CJ's site.

    I'd appreciate your help.

    Hi nickjason,
    Well welcome to cj! The best worst company you will ever work for.
    I will explain as best I can the payment process for you!
    Today is July 25th and lets say that I made 139.00 today woohoo! right
    So here is the fun part. Merchants have until the 10 of the next month to do one of 3 things.
    1st they leave it alone *we want this* and it locks
    2nd they are jerks and extend it *gives them 45 extra days to either reverse it or keep it and pay you*
    3rd they reverse it and your sale is lost.
    So lets say they leave it alone and it locks. Once they pay cj. Cj will cut you out a check or direct deposit your money on or around the 20th of the next month.
    If they extend it and after 45 days they decide to let it lock they again pay cj and the same dates apply
    If they reverse it come here to dp tell us what they reversed and who they are, it serves as communicating between affiliates and makes us all aware to stay away from them
