CJ Affiliate feeds

A CJ Affiliate feed is a smart feed of products from advertisers on CJ Affiliate (Commission Junction). Each product becomes a feed item with its image, name, price and an affiliate link that pays commission to you. Use it to share products from the brands you promote.

Before you start: connect your CJ account

Feedigy reads CJ with your own CJ credentials.

1. In CJ, create a Personal Access Token on the developer portal. Note your Company ID (CID) and, if you have one, the Website ID (PID) of the site you promote.
2. In Feedigy, open Generate smart feed, choose CJ Affiliate, and select Add new account….
3. Enter the Personal Access token, the Company ID (CID) and the Website ID (PID).
4. Select Connect. Feedigy checks the credentials with CJ.

You can also connect it on the CJ Affiliate channel page. With more than one account, pick the one to use at the top of the form.

Create a CJ Affiliate feed

1. Open Content feeds in the sidebar, then Generate smart feed.
2. In Select a source channel, choose CJ Affiliate.
3. Type a keyword into Keywords and press Enter. Add up to 10. Each keyword becomes its own feed. Select a keyword to preview it.
4. In Search in, choose My Advertisers (Active) for the advertisers you joined, or All advertisers.
5. Check the products in Live preview on the right.
6. Select Generate.

Products from advertisers you have not joined do not pay you commission until CJ approves you for that advertiser.

Advanced mode

• Negative keywords: skip products that contain any of these words (up to 10).
• Price range: only products in this price range.
• Currency: only products priced in this currency, or Any currency.
• Filter by advertiser IDs: only products from these CJ advertisers (up to 10 IDs).
• Sort by: Don’t sort, Price: low to high or Price: high to low.
• Tags: tags for the new feeds. See Tags.

After you generate

The new feeds appear on the Content Feeds page with the Smart type. Feedigy refreshes a CJ Affiliate feed at most every 2 hours, when the feed is read. To share the products on your channels, add the feed to an Auto-Publisher. Add an affiliate disclosure to the Auto-Publisher’s post template, for example “#Sponsored”.
