Generating clicks but Not revenue

Generating clicks but NOT revenue

Looking at your reports you might have wondered why you have generated a lot of clicks, but you don’t see any revenue generated.

Being an affiliate using the Shopzilla Publisher Program, you make money online on a per-click basis. However, if your website visitors click on a Shopzilla ad on your website, but then, do not click on a product listed on a Shopzilla site, Shopzilla does not pay affiliates for those clicks. While this may occur from time-to-time, we encourage you consider your ‘effective Earnings per Click’ (eCPC) based on a meaningful sample of click activity (such as 500 – 1000 clicks).

Revenue generating activity occurs when the users you refer to Shopzilla redirect from product offer listings to the online retailer listing those product offers.

Is an invoice required in order to receive payment?

Friday, March 20th, 2009

Shopzilla does not expect you to provide an invoice in order to receive payments. You will be paid automatically if you have earned the minimum payment threshold of £50.00. If you are not located in the UK and are not VAT registered, then no VAT is payable by Shopzilla for Shopzilla’s Publishers’ earnings.

However if you are located in the UK and are VAT registered we will need you to send us an invoice.

Once your account balance has reached the minimum of £50, Shopzilla will send you a final earning report* during the first 3 days of the following month. You as a Publisher then have 10 working days to send us a valid invoice. Please issue a UK-VAT invoice in accordance with UK-VAT invoicing requirements. This invoice should show the net fees earned (provided by the final earning reports send by Shopzilla Publisher program) plus the applicable amount of VAT.

The invoice address is the following:
Shopzilla Ltd.
111 Buckingham Palace Road
London, SW1W 0SR

Invoices can be send by post, email or fax. Only on receipt of the VAT invoice Shopzilla will remit the Shopzilla Publisher earnings plus the VAT charged to your account. If in doubt you should verify the exact invoicing requirements with your local tax office or with your tax adviser.


*Publisher earnings are subject to validation and adjustments. Portal reported earnings should only be considered as an estimate, which is why Publishers that are VAT registered in the UK will receive a report with final earnings amounts once they have reached the £50.00 threshold. Publishers should consult the Shopzilla, Inc. Publisher Program Terms & Conditions for more information.
