When you set up cascading billing from inside CCBILL's System5 Admin using the Traffic Manager you set up a Traffic Flow - it's the cascading order i.e. Epoch first,CCBill credit card 2nd, CCBILL check third - each Traffic Flow creates a seperate new link code. Ron Harris' link codes do NOT take advantage of that feature.

At this point there is absolutely no way to know if Ron Harris' Epoch account is posting back to CCBILL. It could be - so nobody should be calling him shady yet. It also could not be.

How he's set up his join page with an Epoch and CCBILL option is NOT how CCBILL intended the cascading billing to be implemented. Thought it still may end up with CCBILL affiliates getting credit for sales made through Epoch.

As Paul from CCBILL said the only way to test is with a live signup.

If anybody is a Ron Harris affiliate give me your link code and I'll sign up and we can see if the sale is credited to the affiliate in CCBILL's affiliate admin.
Mutt is correct. The cascading works off of a ccbill link code only EVEN if you have epoch selected as primary biller. Unless I am completely off base him having both epoch and ccbill links on the join page is a huge traffic leak. I know the guy has been around for a long time BV, but that doesnt exempt him from making an error.
