Which M&S program s have the brand bidding groups?

[ian]

Home insurance for Brand + Generic is open to all
Car insurance is blocked so there's at least one authorised bidder

[Qui Gon Jinn]

Who is the authorised bidder?
Does their brand cookie overwrite other content affiliates if the last click?
Do the various M&S programs cross track?

[ian]

I'm assuming they are authorised as the T&C's are fairly clear

"Affiliates cannot at any point appear under the other Marks and Spencers terms, these include the following:

- Marks and Spencer
- Marks and Spencer Car Insurance Marks and Spencer Car Insurance - Google Search
- Marks and Spencer Pet Insurance
- Marks and Spencer Wedding Insurance Marks and Spencer Wedding Insurance - Google Search


Not sure if they overwrite content affiliate cookies, but I guess you can compare their aff links with your own to see if they are using the same program id. Haven;t got a scoobie doo about the cross tracking, one for OMG to answer for themselves.

Spot the Difference on this two landing pages for which the latter is a buy.at affiliate appearing on Google for the phrase "Marks and Spencer" (hybrid it is not)

M&S Home Insurance, Buildings & Contents Cover, Apply online now

Not only is it a domain name containing the merchant brand, do M&S know about this, but you can see the quality "not" in duplicating the merchants own landing page.

There is no disclosure on buy.at of a BBG

I might start building those kinda sites.

yet all you get from networks is tumbleweed unless its something which seems positive for them

[OMG Network]

Hi All,

I am the Account Manager on the Marks and Spencer Money programme at OMG. Just to clarify, M&S do have closed brand and generic bidding programmes on their Car, Pet, and Wedding programmes. Home and Travel insurance are currently open to all bidders.

Please note affiliates should not use the Marks and Spencer URL or send traffic direct to merchant at any time.

The Marks and Spencer programme also operates on a last cookie basis regardless to brand or generic content, the last website to refer the sale will be the one which generates the sale. With regards to cross sales, OMG ensure all cross sales are recorded so you will not lose out on any generated traffic.

If you have any further questions on this campaign please feel free to contact me at sarah.carter@onlinemediagroup.co.uk

Many thanks
Sarah
