Why Was An Offer I Completed Denied?

Question:
Why was the offer I completed denied?

Answer:
It can be one of MANY reasons.
1) You are already in the sponsors database.
a) Your name
b) Your Email
c) Your address
d) Your Phone number
e) or IP Address
2) You are not in the Geographical location for the said offer. Most offers only accept USA traffic, some accept Canada/UK and some accept worldwide.
3 ) You do not have session cookies turned on. Our sponsors use session tracking cookies along with IP address to track
4) The sponsor did not credit us for your lead for whatever reason they have, typically it is because of number one. Some Surveys register you for other sites if you say yes to the option in the survey. Be careful.
5) You did the offer already, you can only do it one time
6) Offers are approved and denied automatically and manually.

Unfortunately if they do not credit us, we can not credit you.

Definitions to Unknown Terms

Double Opt-In
- A user has subscribed for a newsletter or other email marketing messages by explicitly requesting it and confirming the email address to be her own. This is usually done by responding to a confirmation email sent to the email address in question.

This eliminates the chance of abuse where somebody submits somebody else's email address without their knowledge and against their will.


Cookies - Cookies are small files stored on the visitor's computer which record information that is of interest to the merchant site. Despite concerns that some people have, cookies are in no way dangerous -- and can not be used to steal names, email addresses, phone or credit card numbers. With affiliate programs, cookies have two primary functions: to keep track of what a customer purchases, and to track which affiliate was responsible for generating the sale (and is due a commission).
