I do look at it in a different way, as a webmaster who has ran paysites for 10 years and traffic.. I know for a fact that a standard setup paysite for the owners or webmasters will have zero advantages by knowing which country the "surfer" came from. The join, on the other hand is important country wise, so you can know which countries "you" should filter.. The same 10 top countries that could bill 10 years ago, still can today.
Some affiliate programs use geoip to filter bad traffic off - such as china. Giving the webmaster a lower conversion ratios. I feel if you sent me china traffic then you have already lost out due to not correctly filtering your traffic first.
Don't let the paysite tell you about your traffic, if you have to use us to find out you sent us china traffic - then you are losing mad money.
