'Disappearing' CJ.com income?

[MarkB]

Hi guys,

My small Credit Card site has made (up til yesterday) 2 sales and 3 leads.

Now, 2 of those leads have been removed from my stats, so I'm down about $20. What could the reason for this be? They're both for the same merchant - the others are from other merchants...

Does this happen a lot?

It will probably be because the 2 people didn't actually complete the process and backed out before they received the cards. This may happen a lot with credit cards as so many people have bad credit ratings and I think these would only be tested a little way into the process. Just guessing though.

Well, the leads are for applications that are completed... it may have been seen to be dodgy applications or something, though...

*sigh* :) At least I know people will apply ;)

Just received an email from the merchant, via CJ, to say the reversals were due to a change in their system that treated rejections as referrals. However, they're going to return 50% of the reversed fees in due course :) Not too bad, really.

They do take money out of your account if you don't get enough.

Well, that's not the case this time.

Reversals etc... are pretty common with finance merchants and webhosting merchants for that matter.
