[GarySTFC]

All,

 

On behalf of the club and through the website, I have signed up to (on behalf of STFC), the buy.at affiliate network. All purchases made through this site will now be generating money for the club on a monthly basis. Perfect in time for Christmas, why put up with the hustle and bustle of High Street shopping? Order your gifts online and through one of the retailers. Not only will you be supplying a loved one with a gift, but making money for the football club at the same time!

Remember, all proceeds from this will be going directly to the football club, so you too can do your bit to help out!

If you search the site for survey, it will bring up the Experian site survey which for every person completing, earns the club 70p.

 

Having just completed it myself, it takes about five minutes of your time, and all helps the club.

Heres the direct link for the survey:

 

Edited out please use above link and search

[HorshamRebel]

That's quite a full survey

[GarySTFC]

Guys,

 

Please use the buy.at link rather than the one directly to it (edited out above) as I think it is not registering for us correctly.

[GarySTFC]

Thanks to all those who have made an effort to use the above. We've had four registered transactions which have raised the club over £5 already, so every little bit helps.

 

Keep it up.

[Ian]

Bought my mums christmas present on there yesterday. Easy! Internet purchases are invariably cheaper than going to a shop so there's no reason why everyone shouldn't use it a lot. A great idea in my opinion.

[HorshamRebel]

I bought about £25 worth of presents on it so far.

[GarySTFC]

Ladies and Gents,

 

The online survey is a very, very easy way of generating money for the club, yet only four people have completed it so far. Each completed survey raises an additional seventy pence for the club, so the more that do it, the more we make.

 

That and of course there are some other bargains on there....

[BFR]

Gary, can I ask how the site recognises that I am a Slough Town customer??

[GarySTFC]

When going on through the http://www.buy.at/sloughtownfc link, it does it through cookies.

 

Here's what it says in the FAQ on their site:

 

"When you click on any links you will be taken through to specific retailers' own websites. They are responsible for your order and ensuring credit card security. Cookies are used to track your purchase; it is then used to record the commission for your group."

[BFR]

Ok.

 

I just cancelled some orders with Play.com and reordered them after changing my cookies options. At what point do you know I have done this and when does the contribution get transferred?

 

Sorry to be a pain by asking, just interested in how this works.

 

And survey now completed too <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

[GarySTFC]

it transfers across once the vendor has approved it, so we should see it in a few days.

[GarySTFC]

BFR, it is in there now along with some others (six on the surveys), and we're now up to £10.36, so thanks to all who've contributed so far, but keep it coming!!

[BFR]

Hmm. I wonder if that would stay there if I cancelled my order and re-ordered it again..... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/police.gif" alt="" />

[BFR]

On a more serious note Gary, does the system tell you exactly what I'm buying, my payment details or the fact it was me who ordered the goods? Or do you just get a message coming through from the companies that somebody has bought goods through the Slough Town shop?

[GarySTFC]

The latter. I have a page I can look it which shows the number of visits to a particular shop and then the amount of purchases from that shop. I can see 8 people have looked at the survey link, and six completed it, but for the shops, it won't say what they've purchased, just a number and then a commission value.

[BFR]

Good good. Well done for setting this up

[GarySTFC]

Thanks for contributing. Every little bit helps... I've ordered a PS2 game through it and will probably be ordering up a cooker through it after Xmas.

[A Rebel and a Saint]

erm, i started the survey but got confused so i quit, now i cant get back onto it, does that mean ive contributed or not???
