depends on how you look at it i suppose . 100% of the "profit" or 100% of the gross.

thats what i was pointing out above.. lets put it in real $$ figures..

on a 30$ memberships processing fee's at 15% would be 4.50 per month LOSS ( if your getting 100% of gross ) so they are losing 4.50 per month as long as the member stays active.. if they can make more than $4.50 per month from upsells in the members area or upsells on the join form , they are still making money..

in an ideal world yes . in real world we know most revshare sponsors have upsells and you dont get paid for them..

not really . the whole point is profit right not rebills.

i.e. i give 100% revshare on site LAMELESBIANS.com , make the members area shitty then do an upsell to KICKASSLESBIANS.com where im not paying any revshare. im going to make more money . if as you pointed out i'm LOSING money giving 100% revshare then i dont want them to rebill , i want them to upsell to the site i make all the profit from and cancel their membership from the site im losing money on. infact i wouldnt be suprised if they simply cancel them themselves once they upsell.
