I ve setup a full feature site for BP based on xml feed (several week of work) and now my revenues is still 0 .

I m sure there s at least two sales , because i tested myself the system and bought two different games from 2 differents emails (including a totally new hotmail email that cant be in their database already)

other companies like real/trygames provides stats with number of download … sales and refund etc.. ,

I ve heard of the point mentionned by Neroli but how can we verify they dont cheat ? at least they should report sales (which game sold and when) and report that this customer is already someone else affiliate.

Also wondering about the My Game Space page. Not much seems to be happening there. One thing I noticed…if you look at the My Games Space home page, it automatically lists featured games, even if you haven’t changed anything. Now, if you look at somebody else’s game page, it usually lists different games, or games in a different order. I think this hints at the games which are selling best for your particular affiliate code (based off of what I’ve been promoting and what appears to be featured on my own page).

But yeah….real stats would totally help! It’s kind of odd that they didn’t include these from the beginning.

One could even start doing casual games program via his local town, introducing leaflets to people to try free games. (Or whatever! :) I’m 100% there’s still plenty of room for newcomers.

In fact… those who will come today will be one happy campers after 3 more years… ;)

That is why it’s harder to get in now, vs. 3 years ago. A lot of the regular customers are taken. It’s tougher to convert new customers, so you really need to think out of the box.

As a late comer, I’d like to see them adopt a new model so that we get paid for directing traffic at the moment, sort of like Amazon?

I’ll wanna test this too and see what happens. They might track your IP and disallow discounts when buying through affiliate account.

Or maybe the purchase will be tracked later time (like after potential chargeback or something?).

@James: yes, I agree.

The first thing i did was test my affiliate link to see if they track sales. I signed up as a customer and bought a product and the sale was not tracked in the affiliate program. So clearly they cheat sales.

I asked for a chargeback and explanation for the reason they were not tracking my sales. Contact form and email got me no replies three months down the track.

I ended up making $20 off sales through them by selling their downloadable games (mostly because i didn’t get around to changing the link)

And now today I get charged by paypal for buying a $6.99 game through them from my customer account. A game I did not buy. (after making more than 15 game sales to them, the ones that were tracked, nither of my sales were).

I have reported this to paypal.

So i’m $15 down for making two game purchases (that were not tracked and one I didn’t even make). Which gives me a total of $5 for over 15 game sales.

If you have any dealings with this company be very careful. They are uncontactable and from my experiance unscrupulous. They don’t even track clicks.

I’ve been promoting and selling stuff through affiliates since 2001. I have never seen customer service or sales scraping as bad as this.

Stay away.
