What about customers who have their cookies disabled?

Most sites on the internet require cookies to be enabled, and this technology will remain part of the internet for a long time.

A customer who has cookies disabled on their browser will not be able to have their sales tracked; however, studies have shown that cookies are rejected by users only 0.68% of the time, so you have a 99.32% chance of making a successful sale.

Please email affiliates@hostgator.com for affiliate program questions and support.

If a visitor goes first to my affiliate page (the cookie is registeres) and later (may be a couple of days) goes to a second affiliate page and finally he buys any Hosting Plan, which of the affiliates obtain the commission, the First or the second?

The most recent cookie is the winner.

In your example, the second affiliate obtains the commission.
