Sometimes your tracking ID is displayed at the top of the first page but not so much as it relates to each additional page meaning it's possible that you may be generating sales that you aren't being credited and paid for. So do you trust that they'll rightfully credit and pay you most/all of the time?

    Absolutely - I have never had any problems with them.

    First you have the orders report which does not always match up with the earnings report, because it only becomes earnings when the item has shipped

    Good luck

      Yes, I do.

      I have had commissions countless times on items sold that are completely unrelated to anything that I am promoting. The cookie that amazon puts into place when anyone clicks through to their site takes care of that.

    If someone clicks thru your link and buys you get paid. Not sure what you are saying here.

    Yeah your not allowed to post that (Jon), but to answer the OP question your affiliate link goes beyond the first page that they clicked as I have many sales that are not original item that was clicked through and get credit when the item actually ships.

    A cookie is created on the first page... like people already said. A cookie is a file downloaded to the computer of the prospect with relevant information, for example the affiliate who referred them. It lasts for 24 hours, so whatever they buy during the next 24 hours, you get an affiliate commission.

    Once they click through your link, you've got em for 24 hours if they buy anything, tracking ID doesn't need to be displayed (in the url I guess you're talking about?).

      Right the tracking ID disappears once someone clicks onto something else (another page, another product etc) this is what caused concern about it not being properly tracked.

        They have cookies......

        Don't worry about that, it has carefully been thought of before you even think of it.

        You will be credited if any sale is generated because of the cookies it stores on computer.

    Yes, I do. Until now I have got nothing suspicious about them. You can verify your affiliate links working fine or not.

    Yes, Amazon seems to be very trustworthy. As a matter of fact, they have built their business model around being one of the most trusted names on the Internet.
