question to people who sell amazon products

10 replies
I trying to figure out if you send a link to someone with your code in it and they decide to keep shopping or click on another product on the same page, will you still get credit for it? or is it just the product that you referred them too?

    Yes, if you send someone to Amazon via your affiliate link, you'll get credit for any purchase they make on the site.

      Thanks, but are you sure about this? Reason I am asking is because when I go to my own link, I see the Ref- with my id in it in the link but when I click on another products the id goes away.

        The cookie is still there. One of the things about the Amazon program, which helps make up for both small (by IM standards) referral fees and the 24 hour cookie, is that anything someone buys while that cookie is active counts as a referral item.

        This works to your advantage when people buy accessories (like a case for their new Kindle) or other items to bring the order total up to get free shipping. Not only do you get paid for these extra items, they count towards your sold item count for the performance commission levels.

        Yes, you'll still get the credit, even though you don't see the id. The Amazon cookie is good for 24 hours.

      Your associate ID is in the links. You get credit. "A Store" is just another widget for displaying your chosen items.

    Yes you get credit; though the cookie only lasts for 24 hours on different products to what was in your link.
