FAQ

What should I do if I previously registered a ShareASale platform account but bound it to another store domain?
You can install the ShareASale app in the new store you want to bind with to complete your ShareASale account binding and replace the store domain with the domain name bound to the original ShareASale account (after the account ID binding is completed, the store will install the tracking code). Alternatively, after installing the ShareASale app in the new store you want to bind with to complete the ShareASale account binding, you can contact the official personnel on the ShareASale platform to change the domain name bound to the account.
