After the August promo of $20 worth of content for every join we will be upping the rev share to 65%. Some of it will be from the 5% who sign up via Paymonde, most of it will be type in, returning members, content store links or stuff we can't ID as coming from affiliates.

Thats fair enough, as long the affiliate knows about it and accept it.

If enough of our affiliates hit me up and tell me they don't like it I will put up a tour which can only be billed via CCBILL, and pay out 55% on that tour. Then they can choose which one they want.  |
If the difference is the same as the uncredited sales, then I would prefer the lower payout % with cascade billing. Like you focus on costs, the affiliate focus on where to send traffic, and the better 'real' ratios the more traffic you will receive
Off course ratios does not matter compared to $/clicks, but if affiliates are mislead it could have opposite effect when they find out why the percentage payout is that high
