Question: Selling Digital Product in E-Junkie with My Affiliates

Fernando Veloso · 09-13-2009, 06:54 PM

Guys,

If I am selling a digital product in E-Junkie with the support of affiliates, i will pay them every month.

But what about the PayPal refunds AFTER i pay the affiliate commissions?

Do I lose twice? The product money + the affiliate commission I've already paid?

Any insight on this?

Dealing with refunds is something you're going to have to figure out for yourself. If you sell a product with a relatively low price point and don't get many refunds, it might be best just to chalk it up to a cost of doing business. I certainly wouldn't ask for money back from the affiliates you've already paid!

Another thought - do you pay your affiliates immediately for each sale they make? Most of the major affiliate companies have a waiting period (ie - they only pay out once a month or every few weeks) so that any refunds won't be credited twice. If you have a higher priced product, this might be something to consider.

Hey smisen,

I intent to pay affiliates at the 15th from previous month sales but since the Payment processor is Paypal... and this is a IM product... i know i'll have some "later" chargebacks.

I just wanted to know IF there is some "automated" option in E-Junkie to deal with this - no biggie.
