For some reason the affiliate panel is no longer reporting raw clicks since 23/11/2017.
We have approve unpaid commission pending payment so will report of any issues as and when should it be necessary.

Got my first sale last month and received my payment.
Nice commission and they are not too saturated by affiliates either so it's well worth putting up some links.

We are still receiving our affiliate payments in 2021, in case anyone else is interested in promoting a sex machine merchant that is still paying.

Another Shockspot affiliate here who has received commission payments for a good few years. Sometime it's a bit of a wait to receive your payout after requesting and you get to the point where you start thinking they have stopped paying, but then I out of the blue I will get a nice PayPal notification telling me how much I have received.

What is the commission percentage on the shock spot affiliate program?
Do you think they will allow me to buy 2 machines using my own affiliate link and get the commission?

Not sure if anybody else actually emailed shockspot? I did, and for those wondering about their affiliate program, they have confirmed it is still running and payouts are due.
Any payment delays are due to return/chargeback periods, affiliates commissions are paid following expiry of this period to ensure that any refunds from affiliate referrals can be made and to prevent affiliate fraud.

Looks like the affiliate reporting/tracking is broken and possibly no commission paid as a result.
Having noticed my clicks at 0 for a while, I visited shockspot.net via my affiliate links and no click is showing on the traffic overview or raw clicks report, so wondering if there is a problem with the affiliate tracking.
This issue seems to have started around the 24/04/2023.
Any other affiliates got this ??

I just checked and am seeing the same issue via
https://www.shockspot.net/affiliate/affiliates.
Out of curiosity, plus I recall the affiliate manager saying that some updates were due (not thinking he meant with the affiliate program), I followed the affiliates link in the footer of shockspot.net to see if any changes were evident and I have found that the link for existing affiliates to login has changed to
https://shockspot.postaffiliatepro.com/a....php#login, which is a newer version of Post Affiliate Pro, their affiliate software. Having logged in to this using my affiliate account details there are clicks reporting.
So, to hazard a guess, I would say they are upgrading their affiliate software.
I am fairly confident that clicks/sales are not being affected by this issue.

Looks like they have moved to
https://shockspot.postaffiliatepro.com/affiliates/
The old shockspot affiliate dashboard now shows a 404 error.
All appears to be working.

Are any Shockspot affiliates able to confirm the status of this affiliate program - Are they active and paying affiliates?
