Merchant accounts the sponsor controls. I'm assuming the ones the bank controls are safe enough.

If they have a merchant account the bank doesn't report and pay affiliates. It pays the full amount to the sponsors and then the sponsors using their third party or custom made scripts do the reporting and the account to pay out affiliates. They can easily stop some of the signups from appearing in the affiliate report/database.
The bank can care less whether the affiliates get paid for each and every sale. They don't even see this portion of the transactions.
