Where is your refferal Id shown?

    I want to advertise a product but I notice my link sends the users to a general page where they have a variety of products. So I want to check that I will get commision for those products before I decide to try advertising it. I created a link and just click the first product and when to the order page on clickbank. But I can't seem to find a section where it lists the affliates name. Is it usually listed on the order form?
    Thanks

    Sometimes a vendor will encrypt your hoplink (referral ID) so it does not appear in the URL.

    For example: the "earth4energy" product page is set up this way.

    Im pretty sure you'll still get your comission, but recheck your hoplinks just in case.

    When all else fails, you can test your hoplinks by purchasing from your own affiliate link with a friend or relative's credit card, then get a refund unless you got money to blow on testing products.

    Hope this helps

    oh ok thanks but I'm not talking about my clickbank id appearing in the url but
    in order form. So doesn't it usually show your clickbank affliate id when someone visits the orderform? But this one doesn't have that

    Ok, I think I know what your referring to.

    I've never seen my affiliate ID in the order form before.

    I'm pretty sure that your aff. ID is tracked in another way.

    If you make a sale it will show up on your daily sales snapshot, but remember that clickbank goes by Pacific Time so there could be a delay.

    You can also check out the clickbank "analytics" under the Reporting tab for order form impressions and submissions...but this is not entirely accurate, especially since clickbank just started doing analytics recently and they also did scheduled maintenance recently.
