Good question. There are different ways which different programs use. Since she has a special CCbill tour she is sending surfers to all she needs to do (one option) is set a cookie from her domain equal to the expiration of her current CCbill cookies. Then one way is to have her index or join page check for this cookie and if present send them to a CCBill only page where the affiliate gets credit. "virgin" typeins will not have this cookie and can still go to the normal type in tour.
It's worth the trouble fixing this because your savvy affiliates know about it. I send $1000 [but dwindling now] in sales each month to one program but would easily work harder to send five times that but I don't because it isn't worth it to me. I want that extra five to thirty percent more sales...my fair cut that I had before. I saw my signups drop since they changed it so I quit doing more promotion for them. Do you blame me? It's business.
