Commission Junction: CJ Affiliate Marketing App is created to help easily and effectively manage your cj account with your phone.

What is CJ Affiliate and How You Can Start Using it?
CJ Affiliate; previously known as Commission Junction is an affiliate marketplace, where you can find thousands of products to promote and make money.
Commission Junction was founded in 1998 as Commission Junction before being acquired by ValueClick in 2003.
CJ was the best affiliate network in the world at one stage. 
This global affiliate marketplace is a great solution for independent blog owners (Publishers) to connect with affiliate programs offered by thousands of online brands.
The CJ Affiliate application process is painless and far less complicated than other some other networks.

What Brands Can You Promote?
Having big brands on their books was always where CJ kicked the competition to the curb in the past. CJ has still got probably the best selection of big brand names present on any affiliate network.

Ease Of Use
The CJ Affiliate by Conversant dashboard has remained relatively unchanged over the years, except for a few cosmetic tweaks here and there.
Your main “workspace” is thankfully uncluttered:

Cj Dashboard
It provides a quick snapshot/review of your account and I do like the layout – there’s lots of white space so it’s easier to read and navigate.
Most of the actual functions you need are nested in a series of drop-down menus

Finding Affiliate Programs

To get started you click on ‘Advertisers’ from the top menu and you can then run quick searches for programs either by keyword or the advertiser’s name:

Cj Advertisers Search
This works well for general searches, but the reality is that your niche is specific, so the programs you’re looking for will reflect that.

You can also search by categories

Cj Advertisers Category Search
Finding programs is easy enough once you search by category, but you’ll obviously want to find programs that pay well and have metrics to prove it i.e. their EPC.

You can filter every single program on CJ by:

7 day EPC
3 month EPC
Network Earnings

Which is exactly what every affiliate network should strive for.

There is – generally speaking – a high barrier to entry for most programs on CJ.

You need to generate sales on the network before being approved, but you can’t generate sales without first being accepted to at least one program.

Creating Affiliate Links

The standard way of creating links has remained pretty much the same – you click on ‘Links’ and then ‘Search’.

Getting Paid
Now it’s time to review when affiliates get paid, how you get paid, and how much you need to earn before being paid.

Payment Timeframe
Affiliate commissions are paid on a net 30 basis, so you’ll receive payment for your referrals roughly 30 days after the purchase takes place.

Payments are scheduled for the 20th of each month for locked commissions earned, and it’s then a case of waiting for your check or direct deposit to show up.

This usually doesn’t take any longer than 7 days.

Payment Methods
You can choose to receive payment via check or direct deposit:

Cj Advertiser Payment Options
But you can also be paid into a Payoneer account through ‘CJ International Payments’.

The only thing that’s missing is a PayPal option, but not every affiliate needs or wants that these days.

Payment Threshold
Affiliates must generate at least $50 in commissions before they can receive a payment.
