*The eBay.co.uk programme compensates for one bid or Buy-It-Now (BIN) per click from your web site.

A bid and BIN are tracked as a sale through the Commission Junction system.
Example: Generating 346 Active Registrations a month with the June tier programme would pay £2,076 commission (£6.00 x 346). With the new tier programme 346 Active Registrations would equal £3,460 in commission (£10.00 x 346), a staggering £1,384 in extra commission!
