I just went to sign up for a new affiliate program and discovered a real gem among the terms and conditions. It seems this outfit pays a one-off pay-per-signup, or you can choose the revshare option -- but they only pay out on rebills during the first year. If the customer lasts longer than that, they keep all the older rebills.

This is for one of the leading contenders in the online virtual-adult-world space -- no need to name and shame because you'll see it if you try to sign up, it's not like they are hiding it or anything.

But still. Long term rebills are the gravy in the revshare pot, they are the only reason a smart affiliate chooses rebilling. To exclude them from payouts under the revshare scheme is a new level of either cluelessness or greed, I'm not sure which.
