the problem is if you make a threshhold like sponsor s have to play by ( i.e. how many chargeback they get to do ) scammers will exploit this

for example , most sponsor billing have to stay under a certiain amount of chargebacks or their merchant will charge them higher rates or withhold more of the money

so lets say just for example that its 15%

so if 2/10 signups for any given affiliate are chargebacks they are above the merchant threshold thus not only not making money but COSTING money.
so if sponsors pass along the same threshold to their affiliates ( i.e. 15% ) then scammers will intentionally "card - aka use stolen credit card ) to fake 1/10 memberships knowing they are staying at 10% chargebacks under the threashhold.

easiest way is to do what bangbros did is take the cash out of the account unless you go ver some unknown threshold in that case they will can you as a carder.

it sucks and as pps they should really eat it , as revshare they are doing YOU a favour by only charging you the membership price.. because in the end its costing them money ie it should be costing you money as its revshare.

to simplifiy it , if you had 5 signups and all 5 chargeback , taking back the money you made doesnt cover it, you would actually owe them a few dollars..
