there are a ton of ways that affiliate programs make money off of the traffic the affiliates send, and the affiliates are not paid for it. cross sales, upsells in members area, selling our information, all of the accounts that don't meet a min payout, brading in general, etc... most of that is factured into how much they can pay us, if they do 10 cross sales you would hope that they would pay you a pretty high PPS amount.
All of their other expenses like content, bandwidth, processing, etc.. is factored into how much they pay you pps or revshare. Why not factor in the check, epass or whatever into their overhead like everything else.
It's just a matter of time until you see this.
Affiliate makes $100 from (2) $50 PPS sales. Check is cut. Affiliate recieves check and sees:
- $10 check printing fee
- $ 5 merchant processing fee
- $10 bandwidth surcharge
- $ 5 statement fee
etc...
you owe us $20, please send your payment to________
