It can be a hit anywhere from 10% - 30% very easily for the affiliate. Normally affiliates think that cookie should credit them if the surfer they sent 1 hour ago comes back via a type-in -- but apparently not in this case.
If Bushyfemales used Verotel as their default processor (or set up something to handle this, OR switched the affiliate program to ccbill) then I WOULD normally get credit for the sale as referenced above in the step by step. As it is now, apparently I don't.

Type it in, yes, some will. But a bookmark will send them right to where you left them.
I don't really see this as a problem. They can just as easily find another link and get a new cookie from someone else, or Google the site name and find another tour to yet another biller and you're in the same boat.
Lots of people use Google to type in domain names.
www.site.com and hit GO. No telling what will show up there.
I don't think this small issue is one to pull links over. The amount of guys who may do this is going to be very, very small, and there is a better chance someone else's cookie will replace yours before anyway.
Some programs run NATS and CCbill side by side. One of them is going to get the type in sale. That's just the way it is.
