on a ccbill site. lets say someone clicks a link code off a gallery. then 5 minutes later they click the same sites link code except it has a different account # in it on someone elses gallery. which account gets credit for the sale? the first code or the second one?

If the search worked I could find the post from last week

I made a test and it looks like the last one to refer the surfer gets the credit.

the search does work.... do you remember the title?

The first cookie gets the credit.

Hmmm, I only get this error when I do a search

Warning: mysql_query(): Unable to save result set in /includes/db_mysql.php on line 212

search for Author: swedguy and cookie as keyword, or no author and ccbill cookie.

swedguy

Are you sure that's still the case?

It was like that when they used their old cookie system. Not sure when it changed, but 2004 some time.

andrej_NDC

nope, the new cookie overwrites the old one each time

damn you're right the search is down. good thing i'm good at manual searching:

I have asked 4 or 5 times (directly to CCBill), and have always been told that the first cookie has priority. If this is something that has changed, I have a lot of explaining to do to several affiliates who have asked me the same question. I got my account in mid-'04, and since then I have never gotten any message from CCBill stating that this has changed.

Damnit, would have been nice to have heard this from CCBill.

im making my own tour for a ccbill site i promote. im promoting it with a 3 or 4 different traffic sources... but want to track my traffic. should i just use a different code in the tour and make duplicate html files with just a different code for each different traffic source?

I got this answer from ccbill few weeks ago, when I asked them.

newbreed

I have asked several times and always got the same answer as I posted above. If they changed something, they should have notified account owners that there was a change in the tracking system.

That point cannot be argued, at all. If they changed something, they should have notified account holders. Period.

It makes perfect sense that the last one to refer a surfer gets the credit. It's good that they changed it to the way it's now.

If a sponsor set the first cookie and then ignored any other refids all hell would break loose. Everyone would have hidden iframes with refer.ccbill links on their TGPs or galleries.
