Redirecting to my own download page

[sachibhat]

Presently I'm using e-junkie's own download page where i have a opt-in form. Now i want to use my own download page..How to direct customers to my download page after they pay

Hello,



With redirection you can specify the "Thank You" page as a URL on your site. Instructions can be found on our help pages here:

BTW, we would advise against using static download links in your own thank-you page, as anyone could pass the URL of your page or links around the Internet for anyone to access anytime without paying, indefinitely. You can, however, use an IFRAME to display our thank-you page and links inside of your own thank-you page, which would allow you to take advantage of the unique and expirable download links issued by our system for digital products; see these forum posts for more more details:

I entered the redirected URL. But how to check if its redirecting properly

[E-junkie_Guru]

You can use your Seller Admin > "Send free thank-you email/download link..." to issue yourself a free test email, which should contain a download link that actually activates the redirect if you have one configured.



Note this trick will only work for products with File Download enabled (as that option includes a thank-you/download page link in the email), so if you are issuing a test email for a non-digital product, temporarily enable File Download for that product and Submit to finish editing the product, then issue the test email to yourself for that product, then disable File Download once you have used the link in the email to verify that your thank-you page looks/redirects as you intend.

Great conversation and I think that I can do what I want to... but want to pose my specific question to the thread.



I have developed some "e-learning" applications - web based - flash content. Each application has a number of support / media files associated with it....



It sounds like I can put all my files including my "play.htm" file link to a directory on my site - e-junkie will "mask" the url and I can limit the number of hours / days that my customer has access to any given app?



Do I have this right?

[E-junkie_Guru]

I don't think our download links would work the way you describe. E.g. if you would specify the URL of your play.htm file as the download source for a product, our download link would only send a copy of that one file to the buyer, not redirect them to view the file on your server in its full context with other supporting files.



However, you may be able to use product-specific Redirection URLs on each product, so that after checkout, a buyer would be redirected to your URL as a thank-you page. You would need to provide some method for the buyer to bookmark your paid-content page, as File Download links cannot be combined with Redirection (so the thank-you email would not provide a link to reach the thank-you page that directs to your paid-content page). See more on Redirection here:

I'm trying to bypass ejunkie collecting name/email of my customer.

I've got a free report and ecourses, and I manage the email lists elsewhere, so what I want is to use ejunkie for the affiliate program.

I envision this:



My affiliate send client to landing page. They click on 'send me this product now' link which goes to ejunkie to record cookies/affiliate info and then it automatically redirects back to my page so the client can sign up through me.



Ideas?

Thanks

Our Affiliate program is not a free-standing service; it is designed to be used along with actual orders taken and checked-out for payment using our cart system.



Our Affiliate program works like this within our cart system:

You configure your cart here and add products that buyers can purchase with your cart. You can specify an Affiliate commission percentage for any product and enable Affiliate links, so that when an Affiliate posts their link code to refer a sale that actually goes to checkout and completes payment, the Affiliate is automatically credited the specified commission amount on the price paid for that product. If the Affiliate's link refers a buyer who does not take a sale to checkout and payment through our system, then the Affiliate is not credited for the referral alone on any sale which was not actually processed by us.
