This is not a show stopper, but an annoying bit of being an affiliate marketer.
Do you have experience like this:
- Receive email notification about a sale is made
- after a month, no commission was received, contact the product owner

- Replied: the customer mentioned other person as his referrer during the product registration, so I'm paying him the full (commission) amount. Thanks for your understanding.
I asked for further explanation
" If you have a page on your website that the general public can search out, as opposed to an educator who is referring based on one of the following (Seminar/Meeting, Word-of-mouth, Newsletter, etc.) then that will always trump the impersonal web-page excerpt – as long as they list that referrer in the Registration."
This happened to me 3 times. And to be honest, nothing I can do about it.
Do you have similar experience?
