What if someone completed a online purchased on my merchant/advertiser will it show up right away in the report or it takes time to show up in the report? And where specifically will it show up? is it under sales? or commission? I wanna know this because I'm testing affiliate program now in my website for one week and I chose CJ to verify If is it really profitable. But it seems like the report is very confusing.
Welcome to CJ!!!! In the land of CJ it sales do not show up right away, that would be too nice, it actually depends on the merchant. Some send the sales report in "batches" and some do it by "pixel" If you have made a sale yesterday it will show up today (since its the weekend and cj sleeps on the weekend) It can take a couple of hours to a day so be patient. You will see the money you have earned in two spots! On top where your user name and cj id is a $0.00 that will have money in it. Also you will see it if you click reports!
