Does Affiliate Lounge assign cookies to the Affiliates?
Affiliate Lounge does assign a cookie to all affiliates referring to the AffiliateLounge website, but these cookies are only assigned once the user joins the program. The tracking of an affiliate is effected by the Affiliate ID that is present in your link and the user ID that is attached to the user when accessing the website. Upon accessing the Affiliate Lounge website using your redirect link, the user is allocated a user ID (usually looks similar to: uid=12345). This user ID is linked to both your Affiliate ID and the cookie that is saved to the user’s computer upon their joining of the program. Once registered, their new Affiliate ID is then permanently linked to yours, and as such, you will be paid in terms of their revenue generated for as long as they are part of the program.
