wow, i am using linkshare as one of my channel and its been more then 90 days now and no check form them. Emailed then bunch of time and everytime an automated reply. Is it usual???
They do pay. They are a reliable company. They have big merchants listed with them including Wallmart. I'm not sure but their payments may be Net 60 or Net 90, which could be the reasons for late payment. I think they only pay once they receive the money from their advertisers aswell, but not 100% sure on this. Have you tried phoning them?
I'll tell you what: I can't stand LinkShare. I just pretty much don't bother with them because I think their affiliate interface is so irritating. I really recommend anyone thinking of getting started with LinkShare just use CJ instead. They have all of the same types of programs (in fact they have a far better selection) and it's so much better run. Oh, I've also had a situation where I wasn't paid my check from LinkShare but that was a complex matter because the affiliate program had left Linkshare (even though they were still included in the linkshare directory.)
