Mobiles.co.uk - Iphone - Feed information

**rich_crid4** · 24-11-08

Dear Affiliates,

Due to the unique nature of the iphone and the way in which we have to promote the deals. Mobiles.co.uk must ask that you only use the cart link (page=cart) from the feed when directing your orders. Failing to use this may affect our ability to pay your commission.

Therefore the link you should be using should look like this:

Direct:

HTML Code:

http://www.mobiles.co.uk/refer.aspx?page=cart.aspx&product_code=AIPHONEB&dspid=4340&tid=841&wlid=1&utm_source=YOURREFID&utm_medium=CMP&utm_term=iPhone 3G 16GB+2N8I018M0&refer=YOURREFID

Richard - I'm really confused now. There is no 'cart link' in your datafeed (at least on the XML feed from AW). There is the PURL and the AWLINK, neither of which have a cart variable in the URL. I signed up to mobiles.co.uk mainly for the iPhone and obviously want to make sure I get paid.

Are you going to update the datafeed (today) with the correct links?

Hi,

Just to clarify on this, with regards your Affiliate Window feed, if you take the link from the column entitled “Thumb URL” as opposed to the standard AWin deep links in the your Affiliate Window feed. You will then have to take this link and add in your tracking code by using the deeplink generator in your account

So the link to use in the feed should look like this:

Code:

http://www.mobiles.co.uk/refer.aspx?page=cart.aspx&product_code=AIPHONE3&dspid=4338&tid=839&wlid=1&utm_source=awinm&utm_medium=CMP&utm_term=iphone 3g 8gb&utm_content=iPhone 3G 8GB+2N8I018M&refer=awinm-AIPHONE3-2-45628

And then deeplinked:

Code:

Apologies for any inconvenience

Is this going to be fixed in the datafeed Lucy? I update all my datafeeds automatically overnight and can't trawl them every morning to make these changes I'm afraid.

I'll have to drop mobiles.co.uk from my sites until this is fixed in the feed.

**LucyHutchings** · 25-11-08

Hi,

This specification only applies to the iPhone itself, all other products in the feed can be taken in the usual manner using the standard AWin links

Unfortunately, this measure has had to be taken under specifications from Apple and as a necessity to allow Mobiles.co.uk to sell this product.

As it only effects around 12 products in the feed, we are unable to make any changes to the feed itself at present

Apologies for this

Thanks

Lucy

All,

We have realised the difficulty that some of you were experiencing with having to manually edit the iphone links. Therefore our tech team have been working hard to resolve this and we are pleased to say that you can now continue as normal, treating the iphone deals as you would any other handset/deal.

Thanks again for all your hard work! :tup

Richard
