EBAY Affiliate Program just opened

I got instantly approved for the Ebay US, since I am in the US. However, I was declined for the Ebay UK program instantly. I am not sure what the deal is there. And, of course, I am approved for a bunch of countries that I don't even know what the two letter designator means... :)

And I noticed the default report being last month's, too...Makes no sense, since they weren't running the affiliate program in house last month. Oh well!

What method of promotion did you indicate in your registration app?
Everyone needs to make sure they know what promotion methods are acceptable for a particular country program because each one is different. The only universally acceptable method is SEO. I was immediately approved for all countries using a blogger blog.
 
I wouldn't get nervous just yet if the stats aren't up to speed. I'm sure they're getting bombarded with traffic and they're sure to have bugs in the system. Just build your sites and your traffic normally, but this is just the first few days. Give it a couple of weeks before you get nervous.

They just born, yestarday their forum had errors ;) surely they will improve soonn..

I selected the Email communication checkbox, just in case I wanted to send something out to my opt-in lists. Maybe the UK doesn't like that... :p I haven't made any push to market Ebay UK to anyone (not to say that I wouldn't like to in the future).

You can go in and add or change your checkboxes under one of the options in EPN. I wonder if I can turn that checkbox off, and then re-apply to the UK one....or I could always send them an email and wait for a week or two for a reply to see why I wasn't accepted to UK.

If you guys are interested, I would be more than happy to ping EPN as to why I wasn't accepted to the UK program.
