But what about chargebacks? What about the scammers and cheaters? Is Epoch/ePassporte this confident in their fraud control that we as affiliate program operators could pass this confidence on to our webmasters?

I just don't see where the chargebacks/fraud are being limted (yet) any more than how it was before -- and theres plenty fraud now. It seems like it's possible to do a completely 100% online unverified transaction still right? No paypal-style confirmations of their address/bank account or some other ePassporte presignup record to hold them to their purchases.

I mean even if they payments to webmasters are $10 per signup -- people will find a way to exploit it. They will try like hell to anyway.

Just because your giving US the money in real-time, is it really all that wise for us to give it to unknown webmasters in real-time?

I'm just picking at things here because I don't understand yet how this is possible... how you plan to control the next level of fraud attemps that "real time payments" will create.
