ShareASale Datafeed Format Changing

Starting August 1st, ShareASale will be implementing a few changes to the format of datafeeds.

The new datafeed specification will allow merchants to make more product data available to their affiliates. The new specification introduces 15 new data columns to the affiliates using datafeeds. To make use of these new columns, you will need to alter the datafeed file that you send to ShareASale. Highlights of the new feed include 1) quantity discounts, 2) product cross-selling, 3) additional category fields, and 4) product options (including the ability to change the base price based on a given option).
