There are many ways how programs using third-party revshare programs can 'shave'... but what is actually considered shaving, where does it start?
1. As Vick said... you might lose 10%+ due to surfers that have cookies disabled.
2. As BV said... they might stop paying for rebills after a certain number of months.
3. They might offer alternative billing options which you don't get credit for.
4. They might have a backup processor, so if the surfer's credit card is rejected by the default processor, they send him to the backup processor's signup page and you don't get credit for it.
5. They might redirect certain traffic to a dialer which you don't get credit for.
6. They might have a 'dynamic' join page... e.g. ip/country based payment options which you don't get credit for.
7. They might give their members a special deal for another site once they joined, so they cancel and join the other site which you don't get credit for.
I could go on an on...
