No offense chief, but your rantings simply sounds like an affiliate with some hair brained scheme and absolutely no working knowledge of the back end to pay sites, the processing piece, and how they work.

For micro payment system to work, you need a merchant account and rock solid platform to sell from. So it has to be coded well, and minimize support issues. The processing piece is what will, or will not, crush you.

Ask around champ. See if you can get most of the adult programs, with histories of upsells, cross sales, and charge backs what their rolling reserves are? Their rates they pay on transactions, among other back end things that factor into this then come back to this thread with some of these price point pipe dreams.

The processing, and price point, is what will make or break this 'theory'. Either way, no affiliate is going to promote a site for pennies. Which is essentially what you are asking the micro payment website to charge. Nor is any reasonably sane company going to give away 50% of the revenue on profits so small, much less life time.

As I said before, micro payments idea is not bad. This concept of yours however is flawed from beginning to end and reeks of someone without the back end knowledge needed to pull it off, and be profitable for all sides of the equation.
