How Offers Credits / How Things Work

[dietzel]

UPDATE - JAVA SCRIPT IS REQUIRED IN MANY CASES FOR AN OFFER TO APPROVE - MAKE SURE IT IS ENABLED

Essentially here is how any Get Paid to Site works. Regardless if you are doing an offer for cash or for a prize of some sort all work the same way

*Sites rely 100% on cookies and tracking pixels

If you do not have cookies enabled or functional on your pc, ANY site you go to your completion will not be credited to the site owner.If you are having problems with an offer becoming approved you will have this problem on all other sites with similar technology. Cookies + Tracking Pixel = Industry Standard


ok now for simple English:

You browse one of our sites, or one of our competitions sites. You see a bunch of different offers. You click on one of the ads/offers.

When you click on the link, before you hit the advertistors site, you have been redirected probably 2-10 times, between ad networks, internal tracking for the said site, tracking for the sponsor etc.

Upon clicking on it, the first network that we use drops a cookie on your computer. If your computer does not have cookies enabled or something deleting cookies as they come in, your done, nothing will credit regardless.

However if cookies are functional, a tracking cookies/session cookie is stored on your pc.

As soon as you hit the point in a said offer where it triggers the tracking pixel (a hidden image in a page) it looks for that cookie. It basically says " If cookie exist, find who sent them to our site than credit their account"

If the cookie is there when the tracking pixel is loaded, DING the person's site responsible for landing that cookie earns credit.

Now How do we know who is who and who to credit?

Its good you asked that. EVERYTHING you click on from our site, the links contain a unique id for each user/offer. The unique id is also stored in that tracking cookie in some way. Basically if and when the pixel loads the stored cookie, it goes, ok we have affiliate Dietzel and Dietzel with tracking code XX-123-55-55 in it. Lets credit their account and record this tracking code.


Most advertisers post back to us telling us a lead has been generated automatically, and we record the tracking number/code in our database.
We than search for pending tracking codes vs ones in our database. If there is a match it goes DING DING APPROVE. If no match can be found by the time it gives up (currently 24 hours) it goes deny.

If the advertiser does not support post back, we import their stats every 15minutes. Some stats are delayed up to 24 hours as noted on the individual offers.

Our systems are 100% automatic, no human intervention is taking place on offer approvals. If it did we would not be able to pay out daily but only once a month.


Basically as long as you have COOKIES ENABLED and your Anti-Virus/Anti-Spyware program disabled (if it deals with cookie deletion) you will be credited.



All offers on our site have been tested and work as long as your a unique lead to the advertiser and meet the requirements they ask for to qualify as a lead/sale.

If we did not receive credit, than you did not receive credit. Simple as that.

On that note, ALWAYS let your pages load completely before you go to the next page.You never know where or when the tracking pixel will show up, it's better safe than sorry,
