Disney Code--Do not use online!

[SunshineGirl]

From the Disney affiliate program manager:

It has come to our attention that an in-store coupon (1699) is being used online. This coupon was not intended for the affiliate channel and no commissions will be honored if this code is used to purchase items. Please be sure to make appropriate announcements to your customers and remove any references to this coupon on your site. Thank you.

Duly noted.

Uh-Oh. I seen it twice on here yesterday.

[StitchandPooh'smom]

Guilty! I read about the code on the DIS and used it yesterday. I didn't think I would get SR % back since the code wasn't on this site, but I didn't think it would hurt to use it here anyway. The 15% was good enough to take the chance.

Have I messed something up for SR? I thought you could use another code at your own risk, but not complain if you didn't get credit. Should I cancel the order? Are they going to be upset with SR?

Sorry for any trouble!

If they do it right, they just shouldn't give us the commissions on them.

Ack! I didn't do this, but I honestly am confused sometimes which codes are OK and which are not. More often than not I have a code and just try and 'chance it' with getting my SR credits back. If they come thru, awesome, if not, that's OK, I still saved some money. But I wouldn't want to screw things up for SR either.

I'm sorry. I didn't think I would get SR credit, but I thought the traffic through your site would be a good thing, instead of a bad thing. I thought it was good to keep the numbers up for shopping merchants, even if there was no commission involved. Shows how little I know sometimes . . .

Thats ok I did use that code but only on one order that i thought would not credit because of that code it was a better % then the SR... But i hope my other orders that used only codes posted on disneyshopping.com will credit only time will tell!

Ack, I think that is my fault. Though, I didn't go through SR when using the code, and did note that in my original thread. Tricia, I'm so sorry if I caused any major problem for you.

I'm not really worried about this one. They sent this email out to all of the affiliates, and some probably actually promoted it. We'll be fine. I just wanted to get it out there ASAP so no one else used it.
