Hi, I have 2 questions: --- 1) If I put a direct product link on my page and the user clicks on it, but then decides to buy something else from the shop, will I still get a commission on anything he buys? 2) In general, is it true that whatever link I use, I get a commission on the user's entire shopping cart? For example, if a user clicks a banner, do I get paid for his entire shopping cart? And the same for direct product links or not? I was confused cos after testing my link, I tried to select another product but the URL changed...
1) If I put a direct product link on my page and the user clicks on it, but then decides to buy something else from the shop, will I still get a commission on anything he buys? Yes - once they click your link and go to the merchants site a "cookie" is placed on the visitors browser and the nice part is that most of the time, if they don't buy right then and there the have someing called a "30 - 45 day" cookie , which means that if they come back to the site without clearing there cache or using some one elses link in the meantime then you will get commission from whatever they buy 2) In general, is it true that whatever link I use, I get a commission on the user's entire shopping cart? For example, if a user clicks a banner, do I get paid for his entire shopping cart? And the same for direct product links or not? Yes - each merchant will have an over view or payment chart or scale to let you know what % they are willing to pay on each sale, Most merchants even have a tiered structure so that if you do a certain volume with them they will reward you and give you a bigger piece of the pie which equals more $$ for you I was confused cos after testing my link, I tried to select another product but the URL changed.. Thats not a problem as the "cookie" is now set in the browser
