Anyone got any idea on how the 2CheckOut Affiliate scripts work? How can I split sales using it? The support told me that I could split sales with other users using the affiliate program:

This is the email I got from them:

This can be done by using a third party affiliate program and setting up
like below. Also, you can have your visitor sent back to your site after
the sale and you can use a script to grab the details you need.
Third Party Affilliate Programs
2Checkout.com supports almost any affiliate program that works off of
a hidden image tag on the sales confirmation page.

Just fill in the < image src= > string that is provided by your
affiliate program. 2Checkout.com payment routines will fill in dynamic
parameters like "order number","order total", "your product id", "quantity
ordered".


<img src=" ">

To have the string populated dynamically put the following variables
in the appropriate location and the payment routine will fill them in after
the sale is complete:

$a_order - 2Checkout.com Order Id.
$a_total - Total Dollars Paid.
$a_product - Your product id
$a_quantity - Quantity of product id sold.


Example src string:


https://affiliate.com/sale.cgi?order=$a_order&total=$a_total&product=$a_prod
uct&quantity=$a_quantity

If the buyer bought 1 of your product id 01-Widget for $2.00, after
the sale the string would become


http://affiliate.com/sale.cgi?order=123456&total=2.00&product=01-Widget&quan
tity=1

You would need to find a good script that will work through an image tag. I would suggest search Yahoo or something for Affiliate Programs.
The you would set the script up on your server to work how you want it to and then put the link in the 2CO Control Panel and it should work.
Now this all assumes you find a script to work well for you, I would suggest php the better felxibility type.
Just my 2 cents.

The affiliate program is set up for use with ad-merchants like CJ and clickXchange.

What happens is that when the user completes the sale, that image is loaded. When that image loads, the affiliate merchant processes it as a sale, and your affiliate is paid.

Hth ... its 4:50 am here, and Im struggling to make sense :cool:
