Affiliates are not permitted to use my brand name in coupons, headlines, or SEO content. This is clearly stated in the program’s policy. Awin cannot guarantee that ‘Picatshirt discount’ will not be used, which means they have violated the policy and damaged my brand. Picatshirt has received 243 impressions on discount‑related searches through Awin over the past 7 days (e.g., “picatshirt discount”), even though we do not offer any discounts. This has resulted in zero clicks, which indicates that the traffic generated via Awin is not relevant for our brand. For this reason, I would like the program to be closed as soon as possible. I should not have to explain a policy violation to an automated chatbot.

I had a very frustrating experience with Awin, especially when trying to cancel their services. After deciding to close my account, I reached out multiple times via email with no response. It feels nearly impossible to get in touch with their support team when you actually need them.

Sadly, we have had nothing but disappointment with this application. It is broken. After wasting a month, trying to get Shopify to help, and google to help, it turns out that both Shopify and Google have advised me only AWIN can fix this issue. Well, we have lost a month, lost sales, lost credibility, lost top publishers due to the feed not updating and spent around £1000 setting up. Not to mention hundreds of hours lost, staff costs etc. So far its been a waste, I really hope AWIN take this message serious and fixes the issues and prevents such things from happening in future.

Achtung: Extreme Kostenfalle! Die beworbene Funktion "Du brauchst deine Transaktionen also nicht mehr manuell zu genehmigen oder abzulehnen" existiert so nicht! Nur komplett stornierte Bestellungen werden übertragen, nicht bezahlte oder retournierte Bestellungen werden ignoriert, wodurch schnell große Summen zu hoher Provision gezahlt werden. Ich habe den Support auf dieses Problem hingewiesen, woraufhin man mich nur damit vertröstet hat, das Problem "weiterzugeben". Was auch immer das bedeuten soll: Die Problematik ist also bei Awin bekannt, aber wird trotzdem weiter beworben. Unseriöse Geschäftspraktik. Edit: Zur Antwort auf die Rezension: Ihr Support ist leider überhaupt nicht hilfreich gewesen und hat den Hinweis auf falsche Informationen in Ihrer Bewerbung ignoriert. Zusätzlich hat er keinerlei Informationen bereit gestellt, wann die eigentlich versprochenen Funktionen bereitgestellt werden und sich auch geweigert, mich darüber auf dem Laufenden zu halten. Eine Entschädigungszahlung zu in der Vergangenheit aufgrund der Falschinformationen entstandenen Schäden wurde auch nicht gezahlt. Ich muss daher dabei bleiben: Leider ein unterdisch schlechter Support von Awin.

Lieber Advertiser, vielen Dank für das konstruktive Feedback. An dieser Stelle möchten wir hervorheben, dass wir das konstruktive Feedback an unsere Produktentwicklung weitergegeben haben und durchaus ernst nehmen. Aktuell können wir jedoch keine konkrete zeitliche Einschätzung treffen, inwiefern weitere Updates erfolgen werden. Gleichzeitig möchten wir betonen, dass wir den Feature-Umfang sehr intensiv im Rahmen der bisherigen Kommunikation erläutert haben und es laut unserem Verständnis zu einer unterschiedlichen Auffassung kommt, welche Funktionalitäten das Plugin aufweist. Viele Grüße Dein Awin Team
