Some CJ/SID Help

[Dave]

Hi, I have a question about SID in CJ.

Say I have users signup and each one gets a unique user id. If i assign their user id to the SID on all the affiliate links on my site, and they make a purchase, will I just be able to go into CJ and in the stats it'll have the SID which I can then match up to my records?

Very interesting idea! I think it should work but am also eager to hear someone with more experience using SIDs, as I just started including them in my links recently...

Yes that should work, it's pretty much how cashback sites work but they probably automate the reporting side.

I once set-up ISD tracking and yes that will work. I did this awhile ago, but as I recall, you have to make sure that their user ID doesn't contain special characters.
