Cj.com and Api's question for cashback site please answer

[bouli]

Hey. Hopefully someone here can help me out.

I am starting a cashback site and i will be using various api feeds to import offers into the site from cj.com/affiliate window/ trade doubler etc.

My question. For the product feed tools that i can use to pull in the 100's of advertisers on cj.com do i need to manually apply to each advertiser one by one to get approved or is there such privlidiges for publishers that they are automatically approved and are free to promote whatever product/offer they want?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

This depends, for Affiliate Window they have a system place for that. I asked Affilaite window and they said this.

I said....."....Finally, within the shop window, there are advertiser's displayed that I have not joined with, is that a bug? I don't believe I would earn commission would I? That's why I want to know how to display specific advertisers."

They said "...You will see advertisers you are not joined to displayed within create a feed as they are linked accounts which are linked to some of the advertisers you are joined to. If you place products from advertisers you are not joined to on your website and a sale is made through them, you will be automatically signed up to their program. However, we recommend you join the advertiser first through the Darwin interface before promoting them on your website.

Kindest regards,

Sean"

Hey m33ranger251.

Thanks for coming back to me on this. I have asked in multiple places and very few seem to know the answer to this. Seeing cj.com as such a big place one would think that it would be easy to source the answer. I have tried high and low on cj but fail to get an answer from their knowledge base and god only knows when they will reply to my ticket! :)

Are you involved in the cash back side of things yourself?
