Supported Websites

CBSaleTracker populates the "TID" field (Transaction ID) that ClickBank makes provision for. Unfortunately, ClickBank limits the TID to 24 characters, all of which will be converted to upper case, and allows no spaces or special characters. We have to work within those limits.

I chose to use the first 4 characters to identify the website with a meaningful abbreviation, leaving 20 characters for the article ID or first 20 characters of the article name, lens name, video, or search term.
