You will reach the £11.00 tier for ACRUs and also be compensated 35.00% of eBay Revenue for each Winning Bid and BIN. In total your monthly commissions will be £16,250 = (£11.00 x 1,000) + (£15,000.00 x 35%)!Simply put, the more activity you drive to eBay, the more you will earn! |
FAQs
Q: What does an "ACRU" mean?
A: An "ACRU" is defined as an individual who: (a) registers for eBay from the specific URL designated by eBay; (b) confirms his or her registration with an eBay-supplied password sent by email; (c) then goes onto eBay and places a bid or uses BIN to purchase an item within 30 days of their original registration; and (d) does not have an account with eBay at the time of registration. The program is not session based - users do not need to click, register, and make a bid or use BIN during the same visit. They can come back and finish the registration process within 30 days.
Q: How does eBay define Revenue that is shared with our affiliates?
A: Revenue is a percentage of fees that eBay actually receives based on eBay.co.uk listings where you delivered a Winning Bid or Buy-It-Now (BIN) through your promotional links as confirmed by eBay and its partner's automated tracking infrastructure.
Q: What constitutes a "Winning Bid" or "Buy It Now (BIN)"?
A: A "Winning Bid" is defined as any bid or BIN placed after a user comes to eBay from your promotional link (within 7 days of the cookie being dropped), resulting in a Winning Bid / BIN as confirmed by eBay and its partner's automated tracking infrastructure.
Q: What is the credit withholding policy?
A: The eBay affiliate program withholds 6.5% of revenue from each Winning Bid posted to Commission Junction in order to account for any credits that may occur from successful auctions. At the end of each month, we compare your actual monthly credit amount with the standard 6.5% withholding rate, and true up your account to accurately represent the traffic you have driven.
