The differences between the paid and free xml feeds are outlined below.

Paid XML Feeds
 - Affiliate links go direct via the networks and so 100% transparent.

 - The network merchant id and deeplinks are included in seperate fields incase you want to build you own links.

 - Your affiliate id's are used 100% of the time on your joined merchants.

Free XML Feeds
 - Affiliate links are redirected via iCodes first to enable and prevent bypassing the 50/50 clickshare

 - Seperate fields for the network merchant id and deeplinks are NOT included to prevent bypassing the clickshare.

 - Your affiliate id's are used 50% of the time on your joined merchants.


Both Paid and Free feeds require you to be approved to the merchants programs in order for your links to work and for you to be paid by the networks (we do not have anything to do with tracking or payments)

To re-assure you that your id's are actually used 50% of the time in the free clickshare feed we have inserted a Store Now Loading page which displays the transparent affiliate link used on that click. If your id's are not used then it will be because you haven't selected any merchants as joined or haven't inserted your affiliate id's.
