This is very important..
Before you buy Build a Niche Store, please make sure you are already accepted to eBay affiliate program (managed by cj.com), VERY VERY IMPORTANT !
There are few eBay affiliate programs listed in CJ, e.g. eBay UK, eBay US, eBay Canada etc. If you are not from these countries, they disapproves you automatically when you apply. Don’t even bother to appeal as you will mostly fail, just like me and countless international affiliates. Don’t believe? just go to any webmaster forum and ask, or look at those threads at eBay forum. What can I say? The poor eBay has some clueless affiliate management staff there. Most of my traffic are from US, I have a legitimate website and advertising budget, but that don’t help.
Ok rant off. You have been warned.
P/S: You may be wonder why I earn affiliate commission while eBay affiliate program rejects me? it’s simple, I became partner with an eBay affiliate from US. I used his account to generate commission :). Alternatively, you can also set up a US forwarding address, then use that US address to apply to eBay affiliate program.
If you fit the bill, consider my BANS bonus.

Hi,
I am from Indian,pls explain me .I have already signed up with eBay and having the ID Whether it is the one we can use for BANS are I have to create another eBay account from Cj.For getting that, first I have to signup with CJ and then signup for eBay affiliate programs listed in CJ.Pls explain I am very confused from where to start. Can you also pls update in you site .Step by step procedure for signing up, BANS eBay affiliate programs.
I’m an eBay affiliate already. But I could NOT apply for the eBay Ads at CJ. I tried many times. I always got:
“eBay: Your application has been declined by this advertiser for one or more reasons. If you have a question please contact the advertiser through advertisers detail page within the account manager.”
Using eBay affiliate tools, I built an eBay page in my site with my tracking code from CJ. No clicks, no earnings.
I’m not from either US, CA, AU nor UK.
I’m from New Zealand and got accepted for the US ebay affiliate program though?
Thank you for this post! I was searching for eBay niches for 2 months and wanted to rebuild my websites into BANS websites. I was ready to buy it but fortunately I found your post. I forgot that I was accepted for only for eBay U.K. although 95% of my websites traffic is from the U.S.A.
As you now eBay has now its own affiliate program and left CJ. I had to re-apply and I was denied! I contacted them but they didn’t tell me exactly the reason why they didn’t accepted me. I replied back and told them that it is not fair not accepting most international users since 95% of my traffic is from U.S.A e.t.c
Just wondering will a US identity, Australia or Canada identity help ? anyone has successful experience with it
Do they have address validation issues later, just like adsense when it hits US100 marks ?
Hi,
I don’t understand you. First you say you are not accepted by EPN, and next, you say you have generated thousands of dollars via eBay commissions thru BANs.
How can you get paid when you are not even approved?
hi:
Maybe I need to clarify: I became a partner with an EPN affiliate from US. I used his account to generate EPN comission, hope that helps.
