Basic affiliate URL question

[blake07]

Hello there,



Just getting started as an affiliate, and I'm not quite sure if I'm properly set up to receive credit for sales.



When I click on my own affiliate URL, I'm transferred to the site where the product is actually purchased. No unique URL remains. When I click 'Add to cart', the URL of the sales page is the exact same as if I had proceeded directly through his site.



My (probably really big newbie) question is, how am I getting credit for a sale that happens several pages past my affiliate URL?



Thanks in advance!

Presuming you obtained your affiliate link code from your E-junkie Affiliate Admin, when a buyer clicks your hoplink, that sets a cookie in the buyer's browser which expires in 6 months, so anything that buyer purchases from that seller during the lifespan of that cookie will earn you the seller's specified commission (if any) for the product(s) purchased.



Please contact the merchant who operates your Affiliate program with any other questions you may have about their particular program. You can use the Contact Merchant function in your E-junkie Affiliate Admin to send a message to the email address we have on file for a given merchant.

Clicking an affiliate's hoplink sets a cookie in the buyer's browser that expires in 6 months, so any product the buyer purchases from you during the life of that cookie will earn the referring affiliate your specified commission share percentage.
