What do I get paid for?

Currently, each eBay Partner Network advertiser and program pays for different actions. However, soon all eBay programs are moving to Quality Click Pricing. Affiliates will be paid for each click that is directed to an eBay site and the price paid per click will be dependent on the quality of the traffic delivered to eBay.

How much will I get paid?

eBay Partner Network has some of the most generous affiliate commissions on the web and currently, how much you earn depends on the volume of traffic you drive every month — the more you drive, the more you earn. When Quality Click Pricing is launched, the amount paid for each click will vary depending on the quality of the traffic sent to eBay. Each program will pay out slightly different amounts, depending on local market conditions.

Authors Note: The eBay Affiliate program has been popular for several years due to the popularity of purchasing from ebay. However, in the last year or so eBay has really declined in appreciation for affiliates and the efforts of them to advertise and promote ebay. If you are not currently an affiliate of ebay then the chances of receiving an approval are becoming more difficult. Some are approved after re-applying and others just move on to other companies such as Amazon or Shopzilla.
