Is anyone else getting double the commission on Getads? Meaning - I get 1 conversion and the payout is $15, but it shows up as $30 in p202.

This only happens some of the time.

Thanks!

ps. I have the correct payout entered into p202. :)

It happens to me too. I notice that it only happens with Networks using the Linktrust platform - http://www.linktrust.com/, such as Epicenter, Advertise.

Stats202 does capture the number of leads correctly. But the income is doubled. For example, if I have 1 lead at $5.85, the income is $11.70. Basically it exaggerates the ROI.

I have had a closer look at this. I think it is actually a Tracking202 script problem rather than Stats202. In Tracking202, "income" is a value calculated from "number of leads" x "payout". So, an example MySQL statement is:

$click_sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS clicks, SUM(click_out) AS click_throughs, AVG(click_cpc) AS avg_cpc, SUM(click_lead) AS leads, SUM(click_lead * click_payout) AS income FROM 202_clicks LEFT JOIN 202_clicks_record USING (click_id) LEFT JOIN 202_clicks_advance USING (click_id) LEFT JOIN 202_clicks_site USING (click_id) ";

$click_sql_add = " $click_filtered AND landing_page_id='".$mysql['landing_page_id']."' GROUP BY landing_page_id";

So, I haven't investigated in depth, but I think the problem is that sometimes the SQL statements fail in calculating SUM(click_lead * click_payout), due to some particular conditions.

I am suggesting the above so that the programmers can have a look sometime.

Further investigation tells me that it may be a Stats202 problem after all, at least in conjunction with the Linktrust system.

Stats202 is pulling in subids that are not conversions. That may somehow cause the SQL statements to breakdown (with all the JOINs that are in them).

So, I think to solve the problem, the programmers have to figure out whether it is Stats202 or Linktrust system that is causing Stats202 to have all the non-conversions subids.

About Subids that are pulled into Stats202, if it's from a Linktrust system, the "actions" are duplicated or even triplicated for some converted subids. This is the problem.

I don't know how to solve it though.

I'll bring this issue up with our coders.
