If you run a resource site and your job is reselling sponsorprograms through affiliate codes, you might be interested in this. If you sell memberships, you're interested too: Read on ...
We started promoting Snow's programs few days ago, because he was generous enough to make a TGP2 gallery section as well (nice job, thanks). We posted some announcements and got some referrals too, BUT....
Out of the 7 referrals we had in our list, we also were contacted by 2 people I KNOW, who told me they just joined using our refcode. Now, these 2 ppl were NOT in my reflist. We tried to sort it out with CC Bill, but they found no errors anywhere. We presented them with the cookie information of my two refs, which had our affiliate code in there, as well as the URL from where they clicked the link. So, all the information needed was in the cookie, yet those referrals were not automatically assigned to us.
In my book that means that we are not getting credit for AT LEAST 28.5% of the referrers we 'score', as these are only 2 ppl I know that contacted me, might be more than just those 2. Which means we are reselling a product without getting paid, kinda like a charity case.
If their tracking is the same for selling memberships, you might as well loose at least 28.5% of your sales too. Needless to say I am VERY disappointed. I like most sponsors I use, but if we give them new salespeople (gallerybuilders and siteowners), we'd like to get credit for that, this way the sponsors are making more money, because they do not have to pay their resellers
This SUCKS A.
ps. I'll stop crying now
