yes still no reply in 48 hours, I feel ignored and to be honest they probably have no answer so they just ignore it

I cannot believe I wasted so much time sending mobile traffic, very shitty

j3rkules 02-27-2017 01:20 PM

They need to optimize it for mobile asap.

mechanicvirus 02-27-2017 05:39 PM

I guess keep sending hits anyway because ???????

xxx6live 02-28-2017 01:43 AM

Wtf? Over 50% of the traffic i send there is mobile, 1000 uniques a day. So do you say it is not tagged with my affiliaye code?

Yes that is correct and you probably are seeing low registrations because of this

... everyone wants to fuck someone ;(

BigFurry 03-01-2017 11:49 AM

This is crazy if true, and not just a misunderstanding.

Cookies work the same on mobile browsers as on PCs. If this is true, they actually had to write EXTRA LINES OF CODE intentionally to prevent cookies to be stored on mobiles.

Which is called SHAVING.

And as others pointed out about the percentage of mobile traffic these days, it could be 50%.

cybermike 03-01-2017 01:49 PM

Pretty big oversight if true :\

drexl 03-02-2017 01:26 AM

The hits are recorded in the stats before redirecting to mobile cb where no cookie is saved.

I wonder if there's anyway to retroactively re-attach customers to affiliates, at least those who still have the cookie on the main domain.

Also, the following shows a custom 404 with a link to m.chaturbate.com (with no aff ID)
Code:

https://m.chaturbate.com/affiliates/in/?track=default&tour=hr8m&campaign=xxx
For those guys here who say "if true"
Try it for yourself: in Chrome open the Developer Tools, enter Mobile mode, navigate to your affiliate link, go to Application > Cookies to see what has been saved.

Then don't promote it. They even have traffic leaks (banners) on their site. Screw it. Try BongaCash instead. Their website and whitelabels are translated in many languages, geo targeted, accepting various payment methods, even local ones. They even let you place your own banners from EroAdvertising, JuicyAds, ITMCash or even to upload your own banners and point an url for them. Good luck! :thumbsup

or simply remove the line of code that prevents the cookie from being saved.

They probably will do nothing with it ;(

BigFurry 03-02-2017 03:15 AM

Ok well, if cookies are set after the redirect, they didn't remove lines of code. They just haven't added the code to place cookies to the mobile backend.

Regardless, this is not wizardry, it's a simple thing. They can use the same code for storing the cookies on the mobile site as on desktops.

They should not have launched a mobile version at all without that there.

Bump for justice, or pressure to get this going.

bongacash has a very bad rebill quote. Paying customers disappear after few month.

Is all mobile traffic redirected to the mobile version of chaturbate? I just got a new US registration on a mobile device, registered today and spent 125.98$ of tokens.

What link was used or was it an embed iframe? The latter doesn't redirect to the mobile subdomain.

I guess it depends on the device. I don't use/have a smartphone, but i do have a tablet, which is a mobile device too. Most sites (Chaturbate included) show the desktop version on tablets and not the mobile version.

I promote white labels on my own domains, this cookie issue doesn't seem to apply there, because there's no redirection in that case for sure.

A link. Tour name "Your Chat Room (homepage if you're offline)".
I use a different tracking id for mobile devices. A tablet is a mobile device for me.

Yes and i think for everyone else :), but that does not matter as long as sites (Chaturbate included) treat them as if they were desktop and don't do mobile redirect. I'm speaking from experience. I'm using a tablet for more than 2 years now and it's quite rare that a site would redirect to the mobile version, desktop version is the default for the most part and it's just a 8" tablet.

Most mobile devices aren't tablets, so it's not the solution. It's just that you don't lose the tablet signups at least.

Do you know the type of the mobile device? That might get you closer to the reason.

I think there's a misunderstood here... I'm sending mobile traffic and I'm getting registered users and sales too. What is not ready for affiliates yet is the mobile version of the website, but if you send mobile traffic you will get your sales

There is no contradiction here. When you first send a visitor, they are able to keep track without cookies. For instance in the server side session data, or by always keeping the affiliate ID in the url parameters. (I haven't checked.)

However. If the guy closes his browser, and opens it a few hours later, and types in "www.chaturbate.com", they won't be able to tie him to you unless there is a cookie saved in his browser.

ody 03-07-2017 10:39 AM

OK, I got you... And why don't promote whitelabel instead of chaturbate directly? You will be sure the user will sign up under your ID with whitelabel

drexl 03-07-2017 02:28 PM

go to your whitelabel, scroll all the way down.

there is a link "powered by ..."

hover over it to check the campaign ID (which is your affiliate ID)

this ID isn't mine.

EDIT: now I think about it, it could be that we all have 1 campaign ID per domain. so the campaign ID is not the affiliate ID. It is a one to many relationshop

Sorry for the confusion. I'm off to bed ...

Sometimes white labels hang. I notice they are slower and there are less girls, some girls choose not to be on white labels.

Plus chaturbate is all over the white labels. It is on the video in the upper right hand corner. People quickly realize they are on chaturbate instead of the white label.

Which is fine, if you get to retain the revshare when the customer switches over to the main site. But who knows if this is the case?

If you are making any money, continue with what you are doing. But you should go mainstream. Where you can control your inventory and income streams. Become as vertically integrated as you can get. Lost the middle man hat. Make others depend on you.

Chaturbate is pinned at the top of all the get rich quick sites now. They are losing their need for salesmen.

pornuploader 03-10-2017 07:50 AM

since ten days ago my sign ups suddenly dropped as well

What you say makes sense to me, but then when I look at Joker's stats (who uses whitelabels from what he said) I'm kinda confused.

Also, if mobile traffic is lost when using the promo tools' links, isn't the best bet to use the wl?

At the end of the day it boils down to who wins the cookie: does anyone know how this really works? I received an email from support saying that if a user goes to my wl then signs up on to cb he is gonna be mine, but since cookies are domain based I don't see how that's done.

Similarly, when a user goes to the default affiliate link, a cookie is saved against chaturbate.com, a visit is counted in the dashboard and then there is a 302 redirect to m.chaturbate.com where no cookie seems to be saved: how do they bind the affiliate to the customer?

biiiglia 03-15-2017 08:13 AM

I tried to inject an affiliate cookie with a 1x1 iframe to my own room. Then you can use the promo tools links where visitors can click on and redirect to the mobile version of chaturbate. But it doesn't seem to work. It only works when visitors navigate back to the desktop version of chaturbate.

DDUK 03-15-2017 09:58 AM

So I signed up on my phone, made sure I went straight to my site and followed my link with campaign ID and Tracker ID set and guess what?

It didn't show in my stats....

dubs 03-15-2017 10:07 AM

So it's safe to say chaturbate is shaving mobile signups
This needs to be stopped and brought to there attention by everybody effected, I have sent many emails with no reply back

drexl 03-15-2017 01:46 PM

There are Chaturbate folks on gfy, it would be nice to have one of them chime in on this.

I am not sure "mobile is not supported for affiliates yet" is an acceptable answer. Either it is not ready and you don't take the traffic from affiliates or it is ready and then you pay the commissions.

Brian mike 03-15-2017 03:14 PM

Bump for an answer :thumbsup

Andreweb 03-16-2017 01:41 AM

This is a big issue since almost 60% of all traffic is coming from mobile devices
