I have been finding trademark poachers in several of the Team Loxly managed merchants, and our team is vigilant on monitoring TM and Brand bidding. Apparently one or two have slipped through by deceptive practices, so their commissions are being reversed throughout the day today. These reversals will show in the Viator, M-Rock and Mail Order Shoppe Shareasale statistics. The violators have been removed from those programs. If you are unsure what the policies are for any merchant you promote, please check the links within Shareasale where the PPC restrictions are posted. All of our merchants have very clear policies.
Many of you have helped through the years by emailing me or PMing me information on trademark poachers, which I have always appreciated. I thank each of you for alerting me to the fact that there have been some affiliates that slipped by me. Team Loxly has people working on the program literally around the world (New York, San Francisco, Las Vegas and Australia) we will be stepping up our efforts to catch and find affiliates that break the rules. We have enough “clean” affiliates that we want to protect them and their income from our program.
You can send us an anonymous message about potential TM poachers or others that are breaking the rules buy leaving a comment on this post or if you don’t need to be anonymous, send and email to any one of us. If you leave a comment, it will not be made public, only the admins here at our blog will see it.
