    Hi all,

    Have a quick scenario here and looking for some responses.

    Say Customer John visits an affiliated site (ex Sony.com) from CJ. He then minimizes the window, opens a new window and visits my site. He visits my affiliated site on the second window and visits Sony.com from my affiliate link but then closes my window. He then proceeds with a transaction from the first minimized window. Will the cookie from the second window be in the users cache on the first window to make a commission off the sale?

    Thanks

    Usually, in that scenario, you would be given the commission. However, this may vary by advertiser - some may use session variables to disqualify things like that (i.e. if they visit Sony.com directly first, but don't close the window, and proceed in that same open session). From what I've seen, very few (or no) advertisers in CJ do this.
