    If they clear cookies and then go to the merchant just typing in google the merchant's name you won't get your commision....but if they purchase something at the merchant after following your affiliate link you'll get your commision...hope it helps

    You normally don't get commissions from any affiliate program when a customer clears their cookies because that's how a majority of them track signups.

    HostGator has some good stats on that here:

    Most sites on the internet require cookies to be enabled, and this technology will remain part of the internet for a long time.


    A customer who has cookies disabled on their browser will not be able to have their sales tracked; however, studies have shown that cookies are rejected by users only 0.68% of the time, so you have a 99.32% chance of making a successful sale.

    I dont think so as it happened to me , though not on CJ but on themeforest. One of my client bought theme under my referral but I got nothing. On contacting support they replied if client has cookies disable or any option not to store cookies , no way to track the referral.

    I think it is "sick" to clear cookies before buying a product by following someone's recommendation or clicking on a review link, but unfortunately there are this type of people and yes, you will not get commissions without cookies in effect.
