If I become an Affiliate after I buy Skype out for example. Did I pay more for it than if I become an Affiliate first and then buy Skype out for my own use?

Is Reseller exactly the same as Affiliate. Reading the site, leaves one wondering about that.

No, which is Why I gave you the links, because this link:

From my first link:

http://share.skype.com/sites/partners/

Explained this.

I want to thank you for your quick reply. I appreciate your time very much.

You gave me two links. One as an example of what a Partner is. And another for Affiliate. Did one of these also explain what a Reseller is?

Affiliate vs Reseller

I post this after examining the site off and on for the past 3 weeks. I speak English well. I find the site very confusing. The above two terms are used in such a way which leaves one to wonder if the two are not one and the same.

What is the differance? or is there?

Please do NOT Triple Post I answered this question in your other thread. Before this, you already had two other threads asking these same questions, now you have THREE!

Please use the links I gave and there are posts in those links that show the difference.

I merged these 3 threads now.

Please read my post more closely. I'm trying to draw the differance amongs 3 things. The links you sent show me two. I think the problem may be because you think I'm asking about Affiliate vs Partner rather than Affiliate vs Reseller. If I'm wrong, it's only because I really don't know the differance which is the reason for my post to begin with.

Thank you for showing me an example of Partner. And the Affiliate link. I have spent many hours around the site to try to get my answer before resorting to posting here.

In your reply to me earlier, you said:

I feel your mixing up my question in this reply. I replied to you but you didn't reply. Now you think I'm just asking for the same thinkg again. But I'm not. I'm after the 30% of what's left over in what I'm looking for.

Can you please tell me. OR give me a link that does. What is a Reseller? is it the same as an Affiliate?

You do NOT need 3 threads to ask these questions, so lets not get confused about that. Which thread would you like the responses in because I am NOT going to use this one I want to delete the other 1 you do not pick including this one?

You have SOooo many threads about this you can't see my answer. It is in the link I sent:

http://share.skype.com/sites/partners/2007..._value_add.html

Which is from the PARTNERS link I gave, get it?

http://share.skype.com/sites/partners/

You need to read the posts in the links I gave as I said before.

An affiliate is someone who has a web site and offers Skype services from that web site, and gets a commission. I also gave a link to affiliate link as well. in one of your OTHER threads about this same subject.

Please look for the affilate link I posted here.

I have merged your THREE different threads about the same subject here now.

What is the "Buy" rate for Resellers?
What is the "Commission" rate for Affiliates?

I tried emailing resellers@skype.net but it's not a good email address. I go this off the link.

Also I think for the good of the community, we should edit this post down to the meat. Can you tidy it up? I suggest putting all 3 of the links you provided together in your first reply and geting rid of the rest of the back and forth.

If I'm allowed to do this, please let me know and I will.

Do both the Affiliate and the Reseller programs, have residual income?
Once enrolled, if a customer buys using another PC, are they tracked and commissionable?

Affiliates get 25% of sales. How much do Resellers get? Another words what is the Reseller "Buy Rate"? I've searched the site, but the knowledge base just doesn't produce what I'm looking for.
