If a customer visits the bet365 website via your affiliate link but does not sign up, then a cookie is placed on the customer’s PC. Providing the customer does not delete his cookies, if he revisits the bet365 website direct at a later date and opens an account then the account will be tagged to the affiliate (provided visitors signs up within 45 days). This is fine in the vast majority of circumstances.
In the more unusual event of a customer visiting the bet365 website via an affiliate link but not opening an account, and then at a later date entering the bet365 website via a different bet365 tracking URL, then the original cookie would be over-written and replaced with the tracking code of the last referring URL.
We do understand that some affiliates may change their own links to try to get around the current problems in China, however, we cannot guarantee that any such action will work all of the time.
Thanks to all of you which ran concluding tracking tests.
