Arrogant.... Wasted my time because their website is broken, they can't even build a functioning product let alone treat people nicely. Like I want to waste my own valuable time for a company like this with terrible reviews? After a careful review... I'LL PASS.

If i could give them 0 stars, I would. I have not been paid from them for almost 2 years. They keep coming up with excuses as to why I'm not paid, often blaming the companies themselves. It's an absolute joke.

Je ne comprends pas comment des marques peuvent travailler avec cette régie : les candidatures à des programmes restent en attente pendant littéralement des mois, personne ne valide rien, c'est catastrophique quand on sait que de nombreuses régies se partagent le marché et que la plupart sont beaucoup plus réactives.

Scam that don't pay their affiliates

Today is January 11, 2026 and we have not been paid by CJ since October 2025. They owe us thousands of dollars. We were paid just fine up until October and then suddenly our "bank and tax info was wrong" (all a lie) and they cannot seem to figure out how to fix this. From the reviews I am reading, it looks like we will NEVER be paid. We are reaching out to all of our brands who work with CJ to let them know what is happening so they can get the hell out ASAP. We are going to swap over to any other programs we can for the current CJ sponsors (we saw some are using skimlinks and Shopify which aren't great but at least they PAY) and never using CJ again. Absolute scam.

What a magnificent scam. No payment is months, funds locked and no reason given. Congratulations to them for duping me.

Fraudulent company that disables… If there was a ZERO rating I would give them that but this is the most disgusting company with no ethics that I have dealt with. They deactivated my account without good reason and kept my $128 in commission. What kind of fraud could I have done if I made only 128 dollars in commission?! Its ridiculous. I even explained to them that some of my customers don't have international cards so on email I get request to purchase products for them so I made some sales on their behalf but the CJ.com team just won't listen. Affiliates stay away from this fraud company. They also don't release commission on time and always open an "investigation" before payouts are due.an excuse to steal your commission. They are not trustworthy and have likely stolen from thousands of affiliates. After closing affiliate accounts have they returned the commission back to the publishers ? I doubt that too.
