How does an affiliate merchant automatically deny an application in CJ?

    I applied to the Geico insurance program, and I was immediately denied. It is automated somehow, and not looked at by an actual person. My site has classified ads for cars, so it is obviously relevant to car insurance.

    Furthermore, how the heck do I contact them? On the denial script, it says to contact the account manager for further details. There is no contact information on the Geico account page? This is pretty frustrating.

    I finally got a response today. I'm new to CJ (only a few weeks now), so I didn't have enough stats in the system. They autoapprove by your ctr's, etc. in the CJ network. They said i could send them traffic numbers, etc. of my site but I have found a better solution I think.

    CJ can be frustrating to work with, as their system is so heavily automated, it's hard to talk to a real person. It's even harder to talk to a person that cares, or can help you there. Customer service is their worst attribute.

    Seems you are not in their favorite nation/IP list.
    CJ is worst to join now. look at others.

    In Commission Junction, an affiliate merchant can automatically deny an application by setting specific criteria for their program's acceptance. These criteria could include factors such as the publisher's location, website content, promotional methods, or previous performance on the platform. If an application does not meet these criteria, it will be automatically denied by the system without the need for manual review by the merchant. This allows merchants to streamline their program management and ensure that their brand is being promoted by publishers who meet their specific requirements.
