Hi
Is it true that if I choose a affiliate product from clickbank to sell,
and the product has a opt-in box on their sales page, I will not get my commision if they choose to opt-in and if they buy in the future the full money will straight to the company?
helen.
hope this question makes sense:confused:

    Hi Helen..

    It's NOT strictly true, although if a customer does the opt-in and then goes away.. there is a chance that you may not get commission if they buy at a later date..

    BUT

    This is the same with ANY customer who leaves the site to return later... upon visiting the site, they are "cookied" to your affiliate link.. if they clear cookies before they purchase, then you wouldn't get the commission anyways, regardless of whether they opted-in or not.

    Peace

    It is not necessarily true

    If subsequent links are directed to the sales page then
    your affiliate cookie will ensure you get commission.

    If the links contain the vendor's affiliate link
    then you will not.

    Clickbank uses a cookie system for tagging hits. I can't remember how long it is good for but they will give you credit even if they leave the site and come back later. Even if they join the owners list..

    No, if you chose a product that have a % commission per sale then that would be your commission to that product if for example the product is $500 per sales and you will get commission of 10% then you have $50 I think. I suggest you to promote with the best product that can give you higher commission.
