When using our Referral scheme all banners include a unique affiliate code. All the banners are served up from our servers, using the request URL details and the code we know where the banner has been served and what your affiliate code is. When this banner has been clicked we log the click and the visitor for 30 days using a tracking cookie.
If that person comes back and buys within the 30 days they are recorded as a conversion origination from you and you get paid 20% of their order. Unlike most that just log the affiliate code we log the URL serving the banner and various other details. This means that we can provide you with detailed information within your control panel helping you to make this work well for you.
What if the visitor does not have cookies enabled?
Well, most affiliate networks will tell you that they cannot track the person. That's why we serve the banners, we can log the URL that the request came from tracking it back to yourself, so that you don't miss out on that all important conversion.
