Will provide more information as I get it.

EDIT: Buy.com is moving to LinkShare. Personally, I look forward to using some of LinkShare’s feed tools with Buy.com

Here’s the original email:

Buy.com would like to thank you for promoting the Buy.com program through Commission Junction. Buy.com will be closing its affiliate program through Commission Junction as of September 30, 2010. Please take some time to remove any links or banners promoting the Buy.com program through Commission Junction before September 30, 2010. Buy.com will continue tracking sales and submitting batch files through November 2010.

All inquiries regarding Buy.com after the program is closed with Commission Junction should be directed to:

Melissa Salas,
Director of Marketing, Buy.com
melissas@buy.com

Again, thank you for all your promotional efforts of Buy.com through Commission Junction.

We are excited to announce that, effective immediately, we are increasing the commission from 30% to 33% on all direct sales. That’s up to a 10% increase in your check! Thanks to the productivity and profits you have generated over the years, we now have the opportunity to offer this powerful direct sales incentive to you in the New Year!

As a result of this new incentive, your compensation program will have one tier, instead of two, and more effectively support and encourage your direct sales activities. We hope the increase in commissions will make it possible for even more million-dollar affiliate program earners!

Here are some frequently asked questions (and answers) you may have about this change:

1. Does the commission increase apply only to GetResponse, or to other Implix products I can promote as a GetResponse affiliate (WebsiteWizard, EbookGold, Hypertracker)?

The increase will apply to all Implix products ? your commissions will now be 33% instead of 30%.

2. Does the commission increase apply only to new sales (generated after the increase was announced) or to all commissions that I currently earn as an affiliate?

The increase applies to all 1st tire commissions ? we are increasing your check by up to 10%.

3. I used to have 2nd tier commissions – what will happen to them?

As we have removed the 2nd tier from our affiliate program, you will no longer receive those commissions and they will be removed from your account. However, your direct sales commissions will be increased from 30% to 33%.

4. Why did you remove the 2nd tier?

After careful analysis of affiliate feedback, we realized that the 2nd tier was no longer popular, and changed the program structure to better meet their needs.

As always, we are here to answer questions about the commission increase or any other concerns you may have. Just let us know if you need any help!
